On a wet winter's afternoon in Perth with nothing better to do I have found at least 12 of our posters who have made the 150 Heroes list. Donny Williams, Yze Magic, Stewie Spencer, Bobby McKenzie, Maurie Lithen, Bay Riffin, Cameron the Bruce, Green N Juice, Neita 3000, Biffinator, do it 4 robbie and Neitaaa. I am sure I have missed a few so feel free to add to my list. Who knows, we may have 150!

Bobby - thanks for the mention. While I visit the site everyday, I rarely post as there are people here who know far more about football than what I do.

For what little I am worth, I am a Bay 13 Gladiator.

I believe this is also true of Yze Magic, though I am still trying to work out what nom de guerre he is using in his battle against the heathen. At his best he is a supreme troll.

IMO, the one unmissable thread every week is JB's 3 word analysis and the subsequent responses.

So who out of the illustrious selection panel was responsible for picking Paul Hopgood over other legends such as Jakovich? Anthony McDonald maybe? Thats still the most mystifying selection of the whole 150.

There was significant discussion re: Jackovich on this board and over at Demonology.

IIRC, Jackovich didn't make the criteria for minimum games. In case you're wondering, I think this was waived for some players from long ago - some due to war interrupting/ending careers.

We had Wheels on our table at the dinner and everyone let him know how stiff (I reckon insulted) he was not to be included in the list....

Just noticed the name Don Cordner on the forum. Add his name to my list. Any others that I've missed?

Of course Peter Marquis made the list and was a great player indeed. Sorry 'pitmaster', I didn't pick up Peter Marquis from your nickname. 14 now. Join the club!

I spose I should be included along similar lines to Green N Juice, for the Ooze and not so much the Juice.

Do I get a gig as an indirect reference to Eishold's shot at goal in the 87 preliminary final? :rolleyes:

Maybe not. :mellow:

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership.
