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.

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
