Fitzroy Football Club
The Fitzroy Football Club, latterly known as "the Lions", was an Australian rules football club formed in 1883 to represent the inner Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy, Victoria and was a foundation member club of the Victorian Football League (now the Australian Football League) on its inception in 1897. The club ran into financial difficulties in the 1980s and was forced to merge with the Brisbane Bears at the end of the 1996 season to form the Brisbane Lions.
