He is a good friend of Cousins though, which would explain the Richmond Scarf.

I also seem to remember he was once No.1 ticket holder for WCE.

Yeah saw him at the Richmond game , was there to watch his nephew Troy Taylor apparently .

Might've been his 1st game .

Dingo walked past me in an Eagles scarf at our game against them. Was the same week he'd been named in the women's mags as an epic rooter.

apparently most of the working dog teams are hardcore dees fans, so much so that i heard a rumour that they did some meetings at dees functions, that is where a few of them met. RoB sitches wife is also a hardcore dee, the woman who used to be on neighbours, jane kennedy i think her name is

your thinking of Jane Hall

 

Am I?

No, you mean Deefolt... Gotcha.


Not counting the likes of Mundine and Ivanovic who just got handed a jumper and held it up for a photo shoot with no idea what they were doing here's a list I've put together over the years. Although I'd effectively put John So in that bracket as well, he must have been nearly the most rubbish #1 ticketholder we've ever had.

On the topic of celebrity photo shoots I've also got pictures of Kenny Rogers holding the jersey aloft and Chuck Norris being tackled by Adrian Battiston.. Will post later when I'm home.

Not our former Water Minister, surely.... . I often wonder why he retired straight after implementing the Desalination Plant....

Also was Rob Gel a supporter too.

IIRC, James did a pre-season with us, back in the days before he became a member of the 'Oarsome Foursome'.

James played in the ressies for us, I think it was after his first olympics.

BRFE called him the most unco footballer he had even seen.

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
