Erm...Whilst I agree with your sentiment, Kennett is, in fact, chairman of Beyond Blue!

I have a photo of myself and Jimmy at a Reach function some years ago that I cherish. I am going to go to the G on Sunday and have another photo taken with the great man.

A true hero .... Missed so much.

Jeez, have to spell it out for some folk.

I was just suggesting that 3183 Dee was stating the bleeding obvious - the misspellings were a broad hint that my tongue was in my cheek. You could have saved your two seconds googling.

no need to blow a fuse et

i was well aware that you of all people would know who the chairman of beyond blue was (regardless of spelling)

the link was as much for the op as stirring you a little

Should put the statue a metre in front of Bucky.

Love you jimmy I will have a Jameson for ya mate

I would love to see the MFC sing Dublin Jim before games in honor of the great man. Thought about this a bit this season on the back of Port and their soccer still singing. I don't know if people all remember the song, it featured on a VHS that came out the year of his brownlow win. I goes like this "Dublin Jim you've done us proud, flying high above the crowd, your countrymen from near and far salute you, Dublin Jim" there is more to it, but I reckon it arouses the emotions and isn't a novelty gimmick like the rediculous trumpeter. I would love to see itbsungbwith passion to remind the competition and our players of the legacy of the man

Er, even Jim might cringe a bit with that one mate. Too much.

How about we make a statue of BBO and get everyone to help Bronze it up!

Might run out of Bronze though.

[Leoncelli_36 2,264]

Fair enough, but we have no atmosphere at games

BBO would prefer to have young, local women bronze him up on a beach in Thailand.

Revolting thought.

[daisycutter 29,616]

yeah, he's as bold as brass for a hayseed

This is how one Irish sports website is reporting the new statue:
