Jules Neale has lambasted her ex-husband's football club on Instagram, after the Lions used footage of four-year-old Piper Neale in tears, for social media content.
The Lions posted a video of the youngster admitting to not being excited about the prospect of running out on the MCG with dad Lachie for his 300th game. The clip then cut to Piper crying in her father's arms, with the Lions captioning the clip "our shy queen".
Jules took umbrage with the decision to use the footage, standing up for her daughter.
"She's not shy," Jules commented.
"She's scared and it's not funny," she continued.
Jules was not in Melbourne for Lachie's milestone game, following their highly-publicised split, opting to stay in Perth with her young son.
The split has continued to hog headlines on each of Australia's coasts, with Lachie still representing Brisbane, despite Jules taking the kids back to Perth.
The distance from his family will be a major factor in Neale's contract decision, with the two-time Brownlow Medallist's tenure in the River City potentially up, come year's end.
He has opened up on the difficult period his infidelities have created, and is in dialogue with the Lions about his future.
Chris Fagan insists the 32-year-old "owes the club nothing" after winning two premierships and 'taking home Charlie' twice over the course of his stint with Brisbane.
