Heritage, Players Lockers - Twitter

[pitchfork 181]

I can't describe how proud I am of our club - The job Jimma and Cam Schwab are leading is absolutely fantastic and is what the MFC is all about.

Here is one little but very very nice little touch they added to the lockers courtesy of #2 N. Jones (who himself seems v. proud of our great old club)

Thats awesome!

It is about time that the heritage and traditions that this great club are built on start to mean more to our current players

I think this is fantastic and don't want to devalue it in any way...

But isn't this par for the course these days in AFL changerooms?

Yes it is. Nevertheless it's important.

I like the write up they've done (looks as though it's on the inside left of the locker), which gives some brief insight into the history of each number. As opposed to the inside right panel of all the previous player's to have worn that number.

I agree - the write up is something i've not noticed before.

Very nice touch.

The names/numbers are par for the course. The narrative most certainly isn't.

Yep. But it is this exact facet of the sport - that of culure - that the MFC has needed to bring back!! There's a long way to go, but all the guys working for the MFC headed by the inspiring Jimmy and the driven/motivated/experienced Cam Schwab have done an excellent job in getting it all underway.

I have to say our club isn't doing much wrong at the moment, it is only a matter of time when the performance on the field will catch up to the performance off it.

Just noticed we had a player called Algernon Millhouse don the No.2 in 1913.

Best name ever?

Yep and shows exactly how far behind we've been in even getting to this point. But it starts somewhere and the club, Jim, Cam etc etc are doing such a great job...

The narrative is great and will help exemplify to young players how much of a rich history we have.

Before my time, but Alan Rowarth was apparently a fair player, very under-rated!

The old lockers only had players names who had played 100 games on them. I think it is great to have the history with the name of every player & years played.

I think it will also be good for those who start with a "high" number to see others who also started with a "high" number. In the past, not too many players names would be on high number lockers because not too many played 100 games with that number. e.g. Jim's 37
