    No ☹️
    Which is unfortunate because he was playing for a charity and the other contestants weren’t. He had Neita in the audience as his person you bring along with you and he was playing for the MND charity Daniher Drive which I think he and Neita and some other past players founded.

    I really liked Rigga when he played for Dees, saw him and Neita on Tipping Point as well. We were just talking about that group of players, have we ever had a nicer bunch of kids at the club at the same time before or since, of course time will tell with our current bunch but we don’t really know them yet.😁💕

    What a machine pumping those pistons and launching from 50 on the run not a better sight in footy.

    Damn I worked on last season of Tipping Point, I 100% would've made sure to get a pic with him and Neita if I'd worked on that show day!

    Fun show, good people all throughout.

    No "Leon Chelly"? Maybe it's just the Italian names but I always think of one and am reminded of the other. I'm pretty sure one commentator got confused once and thought Andrew Leoncelli's surname was just Chelly. (And of course there have been other names like that such as "Mark-who", the 80s Carlton player) I'm pretty sure Leoncelli was on TV in recent years too as a now real estate agent discussing the market( or something) on maybe A Current Affair

    I was babysitting my friend’s 4yo boy and we were flicking through a footy mag and he pointed to a pic of Nic Naitanui and said, “who’s that?” I said, “That’s Nic Naitanui.” He looked puzzled, took another look at the pic then asked, “but where’s Nat and Nui?” 😅

    I know there's more names like that. But for the life of me I can't remember exact names. And it wasso amusing in primary school that there was a Gary Sidebottom ...his wasn't even made of steel! 😁

    Side(bottom?)-tracking even further, there's the odd player who must have had Rev. Spooner officiating at their christening!

    Dom Tyson?

    Years ago someone wrote into the Footy Show’s Sam’s Mailbag segment asking if Dickfos was any relation to Michael Voss 😅

     

    Fun Fact: the bearer of our biggest flag in the cheer squad, a crazy passionate Dees diehard named Dylan Sidebottom is a cousin of Steele’s.
    And another very involved cheer squad member has a mother-in-law named Shaz and she’s the leader of the Bulldogs cheer squad. Too much sleeping with the enemy for mine. 🤣

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
