Commentators keep saying that no player in the Melbourne side there today (Jones is out injured) has played in a winning side against Norf. Really? I'd be surprised if Melksham and/or Hibbert hadn't when playing for Essendon.
MFC often/usually get off to slow starts. I'm not sure whether the coaching staff did it in an attempt to reverse that trend, but the team came out onto the ground way later than usual. Well, it certainly worked!!
That's such a good post.
Everyone's got a Jack story. A vivid memory I have is after a loss at Etihad. The team had performed very badly, but Jack wasn't too bad. As the team walked off, a supporter totally "lost it" and was screaming hysterical abuse at the team. Jack stopped in his tracks and glared at the "supporter". I admired him for that.
