Does anyone know if the 'Gamebreakers' set of cards included in Select's Series 1 (Footy Stars) of 2021 are the exact same 'Gamebreakers' cards that were included in their Series 2 (Footy Stars - Prestige) set? They look identical, but I know Select often put out parallel sets. That being said...
Sadly it is true, along with Stewart Loewe and Nicky Winmar.
Those four should be absolute certainties above many of the recent inductees.
As it stands, of the modern era, all we have represented are Plugger (2006) and Harvs (2012), with Plugger elevated to legend in 2015.
As for the St...
Good to see Burkey elevated!
Other than Trevor Barker, I can't think of another example in the entire AFL system where a player has been elevated to legend status in their own club's hall of fame, yet hasn't even been inducted into the regular AFL Hall of Fame.
To be honest I have no idea. I was sitting on 9 posts and needed to make 10 before BigFooty would allow me to start my own thread. So thought I'd sneak an inconspicuous response in here, not realising I would be called out...
Thanks for the link. Yeah it won't load up properly for me at all. Have tried in multiple browsers too. Watched the intro from Dustin Fletcher but that's about it.
Clearly a bit too hard for them to simply make the basic information available in text format.
I don't suppose anyone would have a...
I've been searching for a while and don't seem to be able to find much information online about Essendon's club Hall of Fame.
All I've come across so far are a few articles from 2014 where Gary O'Donnell, Mark Harvey and Doc Reid, etc. were inducted into it, along with a few older former...
Not to push the Saints agenda too much, but it's fair to say Stewart Loewe, Nicky Winmar and Nathan Burke have all been a bit stiff when it comes to Hall of Fame induction.
And if you think Nathan Burke is the weak link out of the three...

Does anyone know what the television schedule for these matches is. I imagine the AFL would want this screened on free-to-air over Foxtel due to maximum exposure, but so far haven't had any indication as to what the plans are.
Nathan Burke could just about be considered an elite AFL player, or at the very least, VERY GOOD. I have no doubt he will be inducted into the AFL hall of fame in the not too distant future.

Overall a very good list. Always hard when you have a cut-off date, but I think when you're listing players (eg. Robert Harvey) it's more logical to have their entire careers taken into account. Otherwise don't list them at all and explain that they're ineligible.
Hey, yeah I remember this. Must have aired around 15 years ago. It was either on the ABC or SBS and was effectively a vehicle for young Aussie comedy duo Ant & Chris (think Hamish & Andy, but nowhere near as funny).
Those two guys had previously starred in their own sitcom, which I think was...
