Why does the Melbourne fc website say he comes from Exmouth?. Everything I have read states he is from Esperance. There is 20 hours difference if you drive from one to the other. Surely we can get his home town right 🥺
Thanks Whispering Jack for correcting the mistake in my initial post where I wrote Robbie kicked two goals when actually it was one goal in his senior debut.
I couldn't let the day pass without some recognition of the great man that I loved to watch playing and I rushed my typing.
It is 50 years ago today that my favourite footballer - the great Robbie Flower made his debut in the seniors for the Dees. I was there.

Little did we know how great he would be...A true Champion. I loved him as all Demons did and most from other sides did also.
