Congratulations Lynchy.

Although, I would have put him FF and Hudson in the pocket.

[Mr Ripper]

Reminds one of that old story about the church in Hawthorn with the message "What would you do if God came to Hawthorn?" on the placard thingy out front. A local scallywag graffitied underneath: "move Hudson to centre half forward".

The other Bears/Fitzroy connections are Rocket Eade on the wing, Robert Shaw as assistant coach, and Len Pye on the pine.

Barry Lawrence, father of you know who, on the half back flank.

Is Neil Conlan the dad of Micky?

Richo's on the bench as well!

[Mr Ripper]

Yep, Neil certainly is Micky's old man.

Did Neil Conlan play any VFL footy - if so who with and how long?

I think Jim Ross who played for a few years at St Kilda and did exceptionally well before returning to the "Apple Isle", must have been unlucky.

And what about the best looking bloke to ever play at VFL/AFL level "Scratcha" Neal - how come he missed out, must have dragged a few ladies through the turnstiles in his time
