What's with the outfits these two teams are wearing?? If they'd both just worn their traditional jumpers, there would be no clash! I just don't get it! Aren't the teams proud of their jumpers any more??

FB, I'm not sure how your comment is an answer to my question. If anything, doesn't it just reinforce my question? (I know I must be missing something, just don't know what it is...)

I'm certainly not up with all the rules. But, I was kinda surprised Melksham wasn't just put straight on to the long-term injured list, rather than delisting him and then adding him to Rookie list.

WCW, please tell your friend she is the BEST!! Finding a nice, single line per game fixture is virtually impossible to find these days. I usually have to make my own. This saves a LOT of work!! Cheers!

Hey, WCW, is there any way of getting this version of the Dees Fixture without the red highlighting? Would be very grateful if you can provide. many thanks!

I recall, back when Goldstein was far and away the best Ruckman in the League, Max made the statement that he wanted to be as good as Goldstein (or words to that effect). At the time, I thought yep, that's a nice thing to aspire to, not really, deep down, believing he would ever achieve it, and kinda thinking he was just biting off a bit more than he could chew. At the time, he was just an average Ruckman, and to effectively say you were gonna become the best was a stretch too far. Guess what! He did it. And, then, he just kept on getting better & better & better! From where he came from, with his slack training, poor habits and knee recos, what he has achieved is truly remarkable, and he deserves all the plaudits that he gets! Well done Maxie!!

Let me tell you, it was a whole lot more fun being 20 in the 70s than 70 in the 20s...!!

And VAGG!!!

Pretty sure Goody said in a Presser that he was just being managed, and that he'll definitely be back next game. Think he also said that, given his age, Hibbo will be managed this way for the rest of the year...

Really gotta feel for the guy. #1 Draft pick. Opportunity of a lifetime to play the game at the highest level, as a KPF. Series of concussions, and he has to prematurely end his career. Then, bobs up on Sydney's list, and starts playing great footy as a defender, alongside his brother. Once again living the dream. Then, yet another concussion, and the future again looks bleak. Dunno if it's true, but media today reported he's now suffered TEN concussions in his career. That is simply horrendous! As I said at the start, really gotta feel for him. Such a shame. But, guess he's not alone in having an otherwise potentially great footy career curtailed by injury.

Good guess, given Goody said in his Presser that they plan on persisting with Petty up forward for a few more weeks... (or words to that effect...)

When I first saw this, I thought the subject was still the dress code for the MCC Dining Room!

Pity it's not a curtain raiser at the MCG! (Yeah, I know! Dream on!!)

Great memories there! Loved Greg Parke! He was a copper during the week, and controlled traffic at CHF of Sat arvo! (Great to hear the dulcet sounds of Tony Charlton's commentary, too!) Yes, a debut like that for our new debutante would be wonderful!
