You are correct Tim, quite a chuckle particularly the offerings of luminaries like WEERIDEE et al.

Good post and far too much logic for many around here.

Something productive that does not provide regular let downs ? I do however get your drift.

I vaguely remember Alan Jarrott carrying out some retribution on the thug #3

One of our better players during the Flower era nutbean who suffered nasty achilles and knee injuries which restricted his game tally to 124. Also another of our boys to be hit from behind by the mongrel thug Matthews.

Would that be the Glenn Giles, brother of Peter who played 2 games for us in 1981. Born the year after Robbie so time frame is right.

Memo to self - do not read trade threads in 2015, full of speculation, fantasy and bull.

Too late she cried.

Frost 40 and 53 for 23. Hmmm

Essendon must be trying to gain the oldest list in the business picking up Cooney whom many suggest is cooked.

On reflection, some great players have brought fame and honour to the number #11 I speak of Harold Ball, Laurie Mithen, Tony Anderson, Greg Wells, Steven Icke and Jimmy Stynes amongst others. Sadly, all Clark brought was shame.

I read several similarly worded tweets from Clark pre season 2014 to raise my hopes. Turned out to be disingenuous rubbish. I wish the Cats and yourself no success.

I see that Pattinson is currently playing for Victoria two's as a batsman and making runs too. Nice to Cummins back and taking wickets after such a long stint on the sidelines.

Anyone have info on the fitness of Pattinson and Siddle ?

Extraordinary over from Maxwell even allowing for inept batting from the tail.

Thankyou Bernie Quinlan for your wonderful tribute to Robbie Flower. Coming from a celebrated champion such as yourself means a great deal to to countless Demon supporters.

Nice post Ken, I can relate to what you saw of Robbie as I started taking my 4 kids to Demon games in 1982 when I was in Ballarat. My eldest is your age and he treasures the memories of RF as do my other children. Sad as you say to see another Demon legend pass.

If you are attending the G Jack, say one for me, would love to be in town.

Little wonder the excitment level has subsided when we play so much cricket these days. Reckon we should dispense with some of the shorter form.

You've hit the nail on the head nuts, the drafting under Roos was top drawer last year and I see no reason why a repeat is not in the pipeline.

I share that feeling too ET, spoke to Jack at Princes Park before he went to the games to encourage Jess. A more humble genuine young fella you will not meet, doesn't win games though.

The heart says a definite no, the head says you may be right assuming of course that the foot wasn't the cause of his ordianry '12/13 seasons.

Martin is head and shoulders above most of the journos of today. Yet another wonderful article.

Seems the players are calling the shots at the kennel. Not good for the game.

Not happy with the idea at all and it would give me even more reason to despise the feral Tigers.
