    I just went onto the AFL website Melbourne players and Tom Flower ws much better than given credit for!! His top possesion games 6 or so were in the mid twenties, Kicked 5 goals once and several hauls of 3 Goals. Pity he wasnt perservered with, given what players we had in the late seventies and early eighties!

    Derek Feldman, Rick Feldman, who was the better player?? 

    Who could forget Glen Giles, brother to Peter ( good player) 1 game, slower than drying concrete!

    Mark Alves played a couple of games also!

    Arguably the better coach if Norm's biog is right.

     True. Apparently a master tactician back then, who was instrumental in getting Barassi to instill handball into his attacking game plan

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.
