Just noticed your Boyd talk page reply, Jevansen - this is simple. If Fitzroy FC still exists as an independent club, not a subsidiary of Brisbane, then Fitzroy did not merge with Brisbane. This isn't a semantic issue. And the 1996 agreement is very clear |

Brett Chandler (born 11 July 1975) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy and North Melbourne in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Chandler made his way into the Fitzroy team from the reserves, after originally coming to the club from the Eastern Ranges Under 18s. He played his first AFL season in 1995 and in 1996 averaged 16 disposals.[1]
The takeover of Fitzroy's AFL operations by Brisbane Bears meant that many players had to be culled and Chandler found himself at reigning premiers North Melbourne. He made his way into the senior immediately and played the first 14 games of the 1997 AFL season, missed round 15 then played every game for the rest of the year including three finals. Chandler was not able to participate in the Kangaroos 1999 premiership-winning season, as he spent all year on the sidelines with a broken leg.[2] He returned in 2000 but could only manage four games, the last of which was a 125 point loss to Essendon in a qualifying final.
He is now the coach of Old Trinity in the Victorian Amateur Football Association.
