Re: Lyon V Brownless Stoush - DJC - 03-14-2017
I suspect that the drop in ratings reflects the fact that it is very poor radio; Watson is passable as a third banana, Lyon relies on sight gags and McLachlan is tedious ...
I really don't understand the "golden rule" stuff. Nicky is not Billy's property. She is a free agent and is entitled to have a relationship with any other free agent.

Not hard to understand. She can do as she pleases but a mate doesn't hook up with your ex wife.
Re: Lyon V Brownless Stoush - Thryleon - 03-14-2017
the ratings plummet might have more to do with the time of year than anything else.
The real stuff worth commenting on doesnt start for a week or so, and since the trade/draft/free agency period ended there has been very little going on that they actually talk about.

The betrayal is equal whether it's a mate or a stranger IMO. You can't consciously decide to develop feelings for this or that person - these feelings just creep up on you.
The real issue is the hiding - if they came out and were up front about it to begin with, the situation might not have deteriorated to that extent.
No doubt it's very messy, but that's adult life sometimes.

I really can't see a problem provided everyone is open and up front about it ... and I understand that wasn't the case in this scenario. However, given the passage of time and the fact that Lyon and Nicky value their relationship more than that with Billy, move on.

Bingo, that's the crotch of the Lyon / Brownless matter!
Whether Billy approved or disapproved, the correct thing for Lyon and Nicky to do was tell him about it. They are all adults, but they behaved like school children.

Freudian slip there LP
You're right though, they should have been open and up front. While I imagine that Lyon was reluctant to tell Billy that he had feelings for Nicky, a real mate would have done so before the relationship progressed.
