Great stuff!

That brought a big smile to my face! 😁

We definitely know Ron Barassi is fired up! However, I can imagine if Jimmy Stynes and Norm Smith were still alive today they would definitely be excited and wearing red and blue scarves proudly supporting the Demons.

I am hopeful the MCC eventually put up a statue of Robbie Flower at the MCG. I think its about time to pay tribute to him.

Was thinking the exact same thing as I wandered along those paths taking those photos. Robbie epitomised the very best qualities of our great game, and it would be fitting to celebrate his memory in that way in the vicinity of the place where his brilliance was so often on show.

Agreed.

I hope that this happens eventually. I am sure there are many others who would love to see a statue of Robbie Flower at the MCG.

I got a pic of Barassi in another post.

Who is putting them up there? Maybe the MCC?

It can't be easy. You would need a ladder but we are on top, so that might help.

I live within 5km and would be silly enough to attempt it but I pay credit to whoever has.

Robbie was the Nathan Jones of that era. Equal amounts if loyalty, care, leadership.and unfortunately team success
