A speaking engagement featuring embattled Lions star Lachie Neale and his “personal journey” across the last 12 months on the Sunshine Coast has been axed. The premise of the show was “a unique and unprecedented insight into the 2026 pre-season, 2025 premiership and personal journeys of Lachie & Dayne”. The back-to-back reigning premiers are on the Sunshine Coast for a three-day camp, visiting a host of schools and local footy clubs, with Neale having arrived from Perth, where he visited his two young children over the weekend. Reports out of the club’s first serious intra-club say Neale starred through the middle, showing off the talent that has won him two Brownlow Medals. Ahead of the camp, Lions coaching mastermind Chris Fagan backed Neale and the club’s culture to come through the saga.
