I wonder where Jeff Farmer is in all this?

He was so happy at the ‘G in 2018 I would have thought he would have been part of the celebrations this year. 
i do hope all is ok

Well being in WA he obviously aint coming to VIC.  I thought Garry might have flushed him out.  Someone posted that Jeff had painted his garage door RednBlue.

Anyone seen the OX?

Kicked 23 goals in his first 6 games.  I can still 'see' that mark where he sat on Milanes back for like 5 minutes at Artic park.  Magnificent.

Who are the others in the photo?

Both were at the G for the Premiership celebrations and figured in the Congo line delivery of the Cup to Neiter and The Rev for the handover.

I must admit photos of ex players give me immense pleasure.  Most players had no choice, they were drafted or zoned to the Dees whereas I could have walked away anytime.  In my own very small way I feel responsible for 57 years of misery.

They say past players associations are really strong at unsuccessful clubs because that is all there is. No premierships....Then again if Rod Grinter rang me up I would think twice about saying no.

And some players left the club not on the best of terms, and to see them so happy fills my heart with pure joy.

7 against North (on debut?) and 7 the following week against the Pies on Anzac Day

This was in 1991 when we also had Darren Bennett up forward and Jakovich dominating later in the year.

I assume that's Grgic on the left maybe Hopgood next to him? Don't know about the last one.

Surprised how many couldn’t pick Grinter. Although he could be mistaken for Jimeoin.

Friends, will we ever hear from Big Carl who was our last captain-coach?

I know that we share him with the Aints but it would be so good to hear from Big Shadow!
