A true legend of your club has passed on not one supporter from your club has raised it yet.Big Bob was truely a great player.We here in the West were priveleged to see him play for East Fremantle.He was a real draw card when playing here in the West.A true character of the game.May he rest in peace.Autumn leaves have fallen.
I was way too young to see him play but I heard he ws one of the greats who was still heavily involved in the club. A very sad loss.

yes it was sad to hear the news about big bob. Life member, 140 games in 7 years. 5 premiership medals - 1955, 56 ,57, 59 and 1960 WOW! and Victorian rep from 1957 - 1960. also board of directors 1985 and 86 (bet he wouldnt be happy with whats going on now)
Anywho RIP Bob Johnson Jnr :sad:
The players wore black armbands today in honour of "Big Bob" just a shame it couldn't inspire them to a better perfomance.
I was thinking the same thing BT.
