Definately Cameron Schwab he was the most arrogant person who I have ever met lived of his fathers reputation and Ray Manley was always listening to the races on match day updating the players on the results as they came to the bench. He had a good reputation but was a total idiot and was one of the reasons the MFC crashed during his tenure as the Secretary of the MFC for the MCC.

    The player is possibly Scott Sutcliffe. He wore number 44

    I think you’re right, Mr Lord.

    I was a real fan of Scot’s.

    Exquisite talent, I thought, but he seemed to disappear.  ? Injury?

    Tasmanian, I think.

    If it is Jeremy Nicholls is that the same guy who was on the Board of the MFC in 2013. Records show "X" player on Google

    Oh Gawd why did you have to bring up his name??

    His Miss in the 87 Preliminary Final was possibly the worse miss in the History of the game!!

    Just when I was erasing it from my memory !!?

    He was a fair way out to be fair, I think it was 2 metres.

    Typical Ormond Ammo!

    Would not have happened at De La  far too Polished!

    Shocking shocking miss !!

    That’s wrong about Eishold.

    I think all his critics are like my mates who say they never watch replays of losses.

    Eishold marked the ball on the sideline of the square about 4 meters out.

    Umpire David Howlett, who had been influenced in his decisions all day by the experienced Hawthorn players, ran in from 60 m away , and decided he marked it about half a metre out, so put him on an acute angle.  It should have been an absolute “gimme”,but Howlett made it a very difficult shot. No wonder Eishold was nervous , when he had about a 1 metre target to thread it through.

    Eishold had an excellent kicking technique, and had shown himself previously to be an accurate shot for goal.

    I can recall that, years later, Eishold revealed that the occasion got to him and that his legs turned to jelly.

    Any suggestion that it was a tough shot is ludicrous.  There are no excuses for his terrible miss from so close.

    Good one.....lets tear threads off another player!

    Tough shot, tough circumstances & I wonder how you would go put in the same position......any suggestions that it was an easy shot shows your lack of knowledge & ignorance.

    He was a great player for the Dees who could read the play exceptionally well whilst bringing others into the game.

    Crikey Old Goat, you accuse me of a lack of knowledge then go on to describe Eishold as "a great player".

    He wasn't great, he was a foot soldier and no better than average.  That shot wasn't tough, especially for a "great" player.

    We have a different opinion.  C'est la vie.  I would have slotted it, since you ask! ?

    Fair enough old boy but I liked him & the way he went about it......82 games & 50 goals....not bad & during a time when it was difficult to get a game for the dees during our resurgence....& I reckon unless your put in that same situation, then none of us know really how hard it would be......

    Gees you must have been good in your day.....?

    I was there he was snowed by the Hawthorne players and did not go back far enough and he did not compose himself like some players like Lloyd did. He did not lose the game the problem was every player wanted to be a hero like Yeats and others who were running towards goal and Robert Flower was alone in the goal square and a simple handball or kick would have resulted in a goal even though Robert had hurt his shoulder he would have done the job.

    It was just one of those days.....our boys were young & inexperienced.

    Kicked with the wind for 3 quarters, missed crucial goals, injuries to key players & we were still in front went the siren went.

    Never seen so many grown people cry.

    Did play in the 1991 Grand Final against North Old Boys. Probably the best amateur Football game I have seen. We may have  crossed paths

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
