Talk:Simon Atkins (footballer)

Errors of fact corrected about Fitzroy in this article
It's a matter of public record that the Fitzroy Football Club still plays in its own right, albeit not in the AFL - now in the VAFA - and is not a part of the Brisbane Lions. Hence any claim that Fitzroy no longer competes as a club and somehow merged with Brisbane is not correct.

What is true is that Brisbane took over the AFL operations. As detailed by Fitzroy on the club's website (http://www.fitzroyfc.com.au), and within Wikipedia itself for a long time now in the entry about the Fitzroy Football Club (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitzroy_Football_Club). And both the club website and that Wikipedia entry clearly show that Fitzroy still exist and compete as a club on the field.

Since Fitzroy obviously still exist as a club, both on and off the field, it is false to claim that somehow 1996 was the club's last season, and also false, for instance, to say that Atkins was the club's last goalscorer. So I've corrected these points.
