Welcome back, Wreaker.

I add my voice to the welcome Reeker.

 

Wrecker was one of my all time favs.

We're weaker without Wreaker.

WRECKER!!!!!!!!

Hope he wreacks havoc again.

the grim wreaker is back

wonder if he is related to the bell-beaker folk?

 

Never gets old.

Love seeing Dunstall's face caved in on Earl the Pearl's knee too.

Happy memories .

Wrecker finished off Nathan Brown with a very brave smother also.

Chapeau.

Hearing that Wrecker is back at the club has pitched a tent in my pants.

Love it, and Trappers finish, how did we lose that game!

I loved Matty Whelan. 

Fantastic to see us welcome back to the fold great players, and I'm really glad that we are focusing on Indigenous player development.

This club is really kicking off field goals!

Out of curiosity would that "tackle" be legal today ?

If the same thing happened today, Whelan would get 3 weeks, Hird would get a free and 50m, and essedon would get a priority pick in the draft.

I don't know, the AFL's current disdain for Hird would probably see his number being taken (Hird's that is)!

This is really terrific news. And it isn't just a matter of being excited that a respected stalwart of the club has come 'home', but also to have an excellent, qualified person highly suited to the appointed role at the club.

Having said that, WHEEEEELLLAAAANNN! WOOOOO!

Absolutely bloody fantastic news.  The role fits him perfectly, and we all know that he's a 'heart and soul' Demon.

Lol a bit over the top 

At one point my nephew trained as a masseuse and back in the day did a Melbourne game (he's a Hawks fan).  Out of all the players he singled one player out as being really friendly and welcoming. 

Matty Whelan

All that faulty, and all would be forgiven for illegal drug use - "delayed concussion, didn't remember what he was doing and forgot the rules"!
