Melbourne signed two players who were 15 to play in the U19 because zoning was going to be scraped, the players were David Schwarz and Neitz.

Gee, Jack

You are dominating us all in this quiz show. You even got my question about Ralph Lane right BUT Stingrays just beat you to it. What chance have we mere mortals got? Seriously, you have always been a mine of information. Well done. ( says he turning green with envy!)

Isn't Shaun Smith featured in Robbo show few times?

Thats the one, Looking very aged with his hair so grey,makes him look 20 yrs older than he really is.

It was good to see him chatting with Robbo.

What an incredibly brave player he was.

I remember him standing his ground in " the hole" in defence as huge packs descended on him. He never shirked.

His footy wasn't limited to taking spectacular marks.

There's another to add to our very long list of players with short careers but all quality, it was over too quickly.

The look on Lyons' face after Smith took MOTC, he looked like he wasnt sure whether to abuse him (for the boot to the back of the head)

or shake his hand.

I couldn't even get in to this one now that I'm back working.

Poor Ross. Looked like he was going to be a real champion. Played the first six games of 1966 as an 18 year old CHF and then did his cartiledge which put him out of business for more than a year. If he had the same injury today, it would be an atheroscope and back in business after 3 weeks.

When Schwarz was running around in the 2's wearing No44?

There was a young gun at FF. Chris Farrell,whatever happened to him?

I thought he and the ox were about par,but he disappeard off my radar.

If my memory is correct he wore No35 in the 2's.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
