Yes he did. Apparently turned up at the Melbourne B&F and everyone thought he had recovered. The Melbourne people must be devastated.

Argh, poor Dees fans can't catch a break this year.
When did the show start?

R.I.P Robbie Flower one of the real gentleman of the game
I remember when I was a kid Robbie Flower used to own the sports shop at Knox City shopping centre. I was only about 10 and I'd go in there and look at the footys and whatever else for god knows how long almost weekly. I had no money and was zero chance of buying anything. Robbie Flower would just look across at me, smirk and say hello 
RIP
RIP
RIP Robbie Flower...met him as a young boy at his sports shop in Forest Hill..Soft handshake and a big smile...bought my first Hawks gear at his shop...sad day!

Superbly balanced player: quick, agile & light on his feet. Along with Keith Grieg, probably the most graceful wingman of the 70's & 80's.
I remember one of my first footy cards was of Robert Flower. In an era of bruisers he was like a gazelle.
Robbie Flower was one of my favourite non-Hawk players growing up. If any player deserved team success, it was Flower. Alas, we did him no favours in the '87 Preliminary final. It was such an emotional game. At this distance in time i really only remember three players that day - Bucky, Tucky and Robbie Flower. He was elegant, skilful, fair and dignified. Vale, Robbie Flower. Thank you for the memories.
Is Essendon's trade department ran by their Big Footy posters? http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-10-03/dons-reject-port-offer
I think a fair trade is akin to buying a house. If both the buyer and the seller feel happy but slightly screwed over, it's about right.

Did you grow up in the area HH? Spent the first 20 years of my life in Forest Hill..
Remember being dragged to the shopping centre with Mum to go to Robbie's sports store to buy footy gear for my brothers. Robbie was always very friendly and always ready for a chat especially with us kids. Just a lovely man.. RIP Robbie Flower.

Got my membership renewal in the mail - disappointed to see that it has gone up. I'm only an interstate member and don't get to attend any games so I think it's a bit rich that the price keeps increasing - it's not a huge amount to start with but annoying none the less. Might need to look at the no frills side of it but this means missing out on hawk talk. First world problem I know.
Its a bit rich, other clubs are profligate soenders and clubs like ours, who they tried to bury 18 years ago are 'taxed' to pay for it
Quite the bargain basement fire sale North Melbourne are participating in.

I can't tell if it's funny or quite good for them.
Admittedly, North at their best are quite good, and Higgins/Waite at their best are quite good.
On the other hand, North slightly off is like watching a train wreck, and Higgins/Waite slightly off is like giving the opposition an extra player.
They'll finish top 6, but I just can't see these two propelling them to a grand final.
Yes, agreed. 16 for Ryder sounds like a pretty good deal for me, especially when you consider Essendon won't be winning a flag for quite a few years, so they may as well start re-building.

Are Collingwood supporters even more delusional than Essendon supporters? Pick 4 + Aish + 28 for Beams, and then 22 for Lumumba.
They hold no bargaining power in the Beams trade (although he probably IS worth 4 + Aish) and if Lumumba goes for more than a 3rd round pick I'll spew.
