Didn't he play also for one of the Fremantle teams in the WAFL......over 100 odd games? And I think he was a selector at the Eagles in their early years. He had been a part-time sports commentator on ABC radio & TV for many years. And was currently a state politican (Libs) at the time of his dea...

Yes Rog, so shocked to hear about his death this morning. He was a great compere of Western Saints Functions....really was able to ramp up the auction items to put extra $$$$$ in the Saints coffers. By all account he just returned from a holiday in Qld last night & had a heat attack this morning...

You mean Golf Tango perhaps???

Isn't Romeo Bravo a most apt call sign for you know who??

Isn't it amazing that a statue of such a scoundrel is still kept? Because there is a statue of him I'm sure , most people today would think he was a fine upstanding citizen worthy of our respect. Then again I supose the people of Brighton in those days revered him because his corruption got them the...

and so 'the twig is bent'. Some may know their history

Drat.... :cry: :cry: :cry: it wasn't the real FG after all........ just the saints membership setion, giving me a timely reminder to sign up because Fraser is back. OK, OK I get the message I'll sign up next week. The heart did skip a beat for a minute thinking that the big Frase was e-mailing me. I...

Nobody mentioned the one and only TONY ANTROBUS!!! What short memories we saints supporters have. Is there still a............ [/i]" Dust, Dust, Dustings of Burwood" ? Ah, I remember the ad oh so well :lol: Welcome to the site Dustings of Burwood...... yes I remember Atroshiousbus :wink:

I really missed Matt's quirky, irreverent coverage of this years election campaign. It was dull & tedious without Matt highlighting in his cheeky manner the absurd & the ridiculous pomposity of some pollies,. The previous federal election when he followed Kim Beasley around the hustlings was...

If it's not too late put me in for 2 shares = $30.....Gilbert or rookie doesn't matter to me ........ it's all about the Saints.

Well I hope it's a bloody better pick than Clark or Gardiner....wtf

Good on for Tim Lane for writing such comments....BUT HEY WAIT A MINUTE forumites...... who on this site was saying just exactly this weeks ago???????? Yes our own Dan Warna..... maybe Dan is Tim Lane's ghost writer :wink: Credit to Dan....... he came out with this conundrum about Pratt before Tim L...

Heard on ABC radio this morning that Danel Chick is supposedly in LA at present. Maybe one of the blondes picking Benny up at airport the other day was Chickies ex? And maybe Chickie and his ex will give Benny some boxing exhibitions as a form of training drill for his fitness whilst he's in rehab. ...

Will you be our new surprise recruit (ruckman ofcourse ) for 2008 TBS?

OK...thanks for the reminder

So

Lenny demonstrates leadership on the field....maybe not as eye catching as Roo in his play. Just watch Lenny (more evident in his year as sole captain) but also noticeable this year when he started to run into fitness and form. When the ball has gone further into play and he is not there in play he ...

Maybe we can trade Gardiner back to Eagles for Benny boy

Anyone notice how many drinks twiggy was pouring down :? Yes she sure was throwing them down. Notice she (along with many on show last night) is a gulper not a sipper. Therefore doesn't have much of an appreciation for drinking wine. As with many doesn't know the etiquette of how to hold a wine gla...

Wasn't Jim O'Dea or was it Jim Guyatt on ours during Plympton's regime

What about Lindsay Fox?

I'm surprised Mordy Bromberg's incredibly successful professional profile hasn't been given more prominence. He is an internationally renowned in Industrial Law. If I can recollect correcly - few years ago he was involved in ILO cases with the United Nations where he received a lot of quodos. He's n...

Actually he isn't an Eagles supporter Reiwoltding...even though his parochical WA bias comes through when dealing with any sportsperson coming from WA, be it footy, cricket, hockey, rowing, cycling or whatever. He is an unashamed Carlton supporter in footy ( he mentions it many times on air). So I g...

Some of the anti-Blake people in this thread, need to go back an watch the tape of last night's game. First half Cousin's hardly got a touch because Blake wore him like a glove - he did a credible job Second half..... obviously IMHO...as a result of of John Worsfold's superior coaching nouse. The wo...

Poor management of Harves this year compared to last couple of years. He now spends 95-98 minutes on field this season...far too much game time for his body/age and role he plays...... especially with our chipolatta game plan where our players are often running backwards, sideways, inside out/outsid...
