Vale Terry Gleeson

So sad to hear of the passing of one of our 'Heroes' and member of two premiership teams during our greatest era. No doubt catching up with former ruck partner 'Big Bob' Johnson. Condolences to Terry's family and friends.

Yes, very sad. I remember Terry as a clumsy, awkward ruckman but with a real fighting spirit. A real team man. I remember one year when we were playing South Melbourne at the Lake oval we needed 5 goals to win with 5 minutes to go. Good old Terry became an instant hero by booting 3 of the required 5 to get us over the line.

Yes i read that sad news in Saturdays paper. A member of our 55-56 Premiership sides.

Lest we Forget never our Champions.

R.I.P. Terry Gleeson, may your spirit be at the MCG this year to help our young team reach similiar heights.

I thoroughly enjoyed the story about Terry loaded on the MFC website today. I love these anecdotes, and geez, hasn't footy changed in the last 50 years.
