Brisbane co-captain Jed Adcock would welcome Leigh Matthews back to club Akermanis talks to Fox Sports News about changing times at the Brisbane Lions Brisbane Lions co-captain Jed Adcock says his team must win at all costs against Melbourne on Sunday. BRISBANE co-captain Jed Adcock says AFL icon Leigh Matthews would be welcomed back to the Gabba with open arms. Matthews is part of the ticket led by disgruntled board members Paul Williams and Mick Power who are challenging current chairman Angus Johnson for control of the club after a boardroom revolt yesterday. Adcock started his career under Matthews and said the four-time premiership coach and four-time premiership player would have an immediate impact at the Gabba if the rival ticket was successful in overthrowing Johnson. Of course he would (have an impact). We all know he's had a massive impact on footy in Queensland, let alone the AFL in general," Adcock said. Brisbane Lions chairman Angus Johnson won't bow to pressure and stand down from the club as calls for his resignation become louder. I mean , if Leigh came back, you'd imagine that would be good for the footy club. What role or what capacity that is, that's up for them to decide. Adcock said the sacking of senior coach Michael Voss last week was a greater distraction to the players than yesterday's boardroom stoush when Williams and Power called on Johnson to resign after "botching" negotiations with No.1 coaching target Paul Roos. This one's a bit different. It doesn't really affect the players at the moment in any way so I guess you can sort of move on from this one pretty quickly and let the board do what they've got to do and organise themselves," Adcock said. Last week when Vossy was let go, that probably had an effect on-field but not when it comes to the board. You'd probably find a lot of young guys out here, they are probaly unsure with what is going on. Once again you move on and worry about playing footy, a bit like last week. Adcock said the player could not afford any distractions with the in-form Western Bulldogs visiting the Gabba this Sunday. The Bulldogs thrashed Brisbane by 68 points in Round 1, just two weeks after the Lions claimed the NAB Cup title. They are flying. They taught us a lesson in Round 1 down there," Adcock said. We've really got to do our homework this week, train hard and come ready to play. They are in extremely good form but we are in pretty good form too so hopefully we can come with a different attitude that we came in with Round 1.
