Fantastic to see how much it meant to him at that presentation.  Well done to the club and all involved.  Speaks well too to the fantastic engagement with former players that has been fostered over several years now.

Pie player once mentioned Willo was Coach Lethal’s most feared player in the AFL - could change a game in minutes. 

 

Had tears watching this presentation, how bloody fantastic is our club!  God I love the red and blue ❤️💙

Yes i will never forget the finger to the Members!! At the time I didn’t love it though 

We got him to 200 games and then we got the Finger!!

I seem to recall that he was asked after the game about the gesture to the Members.  He simply explained that he was ordering a coffee with two sugars...!  A lovable larrikan!


Too many to 👍 individually. Thanks all posters for a nice combo of memories, facts and trivia.

So, was the medal stolen at some point?

It's kinda odd that the circumstances of the medal going missing haven't been mentioned anywhere ...       🤔

Was an absolute favorite to watch. Like most of his era he had a fulltime job as well as footy. I think he was an Aviation Firefighter from memory.

Yep, Melbourne (Tulla) Airport Fire Station c.1990.  The Techs reckon he gave them a right old ear-bashing whenever they went over.

Sounds like a guilty conscience decided to give it back via a third party

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
