    Who was his brother? Epic? Legendary?

    I think he was a tailor of some sort?

    I guess the beauty of forums is people get to write what they want - yourself included - if you're not into it - do you need to comment, or just like TV can you flick the channel and move on.

    Nicely put BBQ. Although not in the class of his brother always thought Tom was a good player and for some reason unknown to me did not play the number of games he should have. Remember watching a couple of games and Tom showed real promise.

    Actually the Sh!t sibling is Matt who didn't play at all to my knowledge.

    The correct term is sh!t sibling if we are going to do this properly. 

    Anybody own any Chris Jagger albums?

    We didn't go out and get Brayshaw's brother,so that has got to be a plus. Re-Greg Healy wouldn't get a game with the senior side. Looked average in a below average side.O.Mac will prove doubters wrong.

    Of those two, I reckon it was us by a fair margin.  But the big loser was probably WCE with a third sibling Travis(?)
