Brisbane Bears

Brisbane Bears memorabilia & memories - mostly Walls-Era through to merger.

The enduring image of Robert Walls as Bears coach should be the last one: Parkin, Kinnear, and Kernahan all rushing to shake his hand after the most honourable of efforts in the 1995 qualifying final.

Wallsy helped make us relevant. RIP.

Collingwood’s next coach far right. Beside him, perhaps Carlton’s?

Good luck, Fly.

@rhettrospective @Kicktokickpod Ditto. Sat to the left of screen in the left pocket as a 9yo with my family. Bolted for cover during the shower, distinctly recall standing with a crowd of people, but retreated back out for the second half.
