[geoffjennings79]

9th May is a big day for Bulldog birthdays.

Zeno Tzatzaris is 59 today.
Alan Mannix turns 77.
And Bluey Hampshire would have turned 76.

Not the greatest players in our history, but all great club men, and I've never met Alan, but the other 2 are/were great people in person too.

I like Jordan Lewis. I think we see the game the same way.

have you considered emailing this to him, it could be just what he needs to hear right now

I think I view the game more clearly than Jordan Lewis

After seven and a half years of inspiring impact, Kashif Bouns will depart as General Manager of Community & Government Relations at the Western Bulldogs.

After seven and a half years of inspiring impact, Kashif Bouns will depart as General Manager of Community & Government Relations at the Western Bulldogs.

Bouns has been appointed as Director, Strategy and Operations at the Victorian Multicultural Commission - a role he will commence next month.

Bouns’ leadership has left a lasting legacy on the organization, fostering significant growth while solidifying the Foundation's position as a leading force in community development across Melbourne's west.
“I am incredibly grateful to all who have supported me on this journey” he said.

“Together with stakeholders, staff and volunteers, we have been able to make a lasting impact on countless individuals over the years.

“I am exceptionally proud of real outcomes we have achieved for the people of the mighty west.”

Western Bulldogs CEO Ameet Bains lauded all Bouns had achieved.
“During his time at the Community Foundation, Kash has overseen significant growth across all areas of the Foundation, helping build it into one of, if not the leading sporting community organisation in the country,” Bains said.

“Kash’s community programming expertise, his broad and deep relationships across all levels of Government, and his indefatigable ‘ever curious’ mindset in chasing outcomes for the Foundation, have collectively been the hallmark of his strengths in the role.”

Bouns’ passion for the Foundation and its mission has always been evident, with his ability to speak fervently about the reach and impact of the Foundation's work showcased not only through his advocacy, but also his deep commitment to the community.

“On behalf of the Board, I wish to thank Kashif for his tenacious and entrepreneurial leadership which has seen the Community Foundation grow into a leading and impactful organisation for those in the west,” newly-elected chair, Jenny Taing, said.
“Kash represents the great Australian story - arriving from Pakistan as an international student, making Melbourne his home and building a wonderful career in sport and at the Western Bulldogs.

“His passion for sport and community is at the heart of everything that he does, and is clearly reflected in all parts of the Community Foundation.

“He leaves a wonderful legacy at the Foundation, the club and the west. Kashif will forever be a member of the Bulldogs family.”

The Foundation will look to appoint a new General Manager in the coming weeks.

Came back on after this too.

Came back on after this too.

Yep, not questioning his courage or anything, but geez I enjoyed that bump. Lewis was one of many Hawk campaigners in that era, always pushing the boundaries onfield. Never expected Jarrod Harbrow to be the one to claim a Hawk player. Maybe that's why he got back and played on? Harbrow not enough body mass to have the desired effect. Needed a Mitch Hahn or Ryan Hargrave!

9th May is a big day for Bulldog birthdays.

Zeno Tzatzaris is 59 today.
Alan Mannix turns 77.
And Bluey Hampshire would have turned 76.

Not the greatest players in our history, but all great club men, and I've never met Alan, but the other 2 are/were great people in person too.

And me Shame, they've never realised they have been in such esteemed company

Lewis was a sniper that deserved the hit.

I wish you hadn't posted that.

I remember as a kid watching a lively Alan Mannix running around in games at the Western Oval. Every time I see a Bulldogs jumper with number 8 the memory of him returns.

Can't get my head around the fact that he's now 77. It's shattered that image of him. Hopefully the years have been kind to him and he's not a pudgy beer-gutted wreck.

112 games, last game of seniors at age 25. It was a different world back in the early 70s. I can't recall him retiring due to a catastrophic injury. Maybe he got a lucrative offer to captain-coach in the bush?

Anyway, happy birthday Alan!

Yep, remember Doc Mannix too. A Flinders boy who made good.

My favourite bit of nonsense “People at the club have regularly walked on eggshells around him, whether they have realised it or not,” how can you walk on egg shells without realising it?

What if they were sleep walking when they walked on the eggshells?

 

[Mojorisin]

What if they were sleep walking when they walked on the eggshells?

Maybe the eggshell were at the sea baths he took everyone to instead of reviewing the weekends game?

Happy birthday mate!

Thankyou!

Happy birthday, hopefully a win for you this week!

Hey everyone, I posted a video on Youtube recently that highlighted Kane Cornes' vendetta against Bevo and how it contrasts with his more measured takes on his former coach Ken Hinkley.

Whilst it is rather long (an hour), I wanted to play the clips without editing them too heavily in order to have as much context as possible. Check it out if you get the chance...cheers.

Hopefully for us all.

Another dig at club and Beveridge. Not predictable at all.

He backed up his okayish article during the week with this flaming dollop of dog shit

In the same way the failed fireman's name should be over-ridden by BF, that hack you guys have referenced above should not have his name acknowledged on here, IMO. Complaining about him but still referencing him feeds into browser algorithms to promote his 'brand' (I baulk at calling it 'journalism'). I'd suggest BF alters his name to Mauve Ambulance-chasing Coward... too long maybe?
