Buddy Franklin a Dees supporter!

[The Dr]

In Mike Sheehan's article in the Hun today:

"Franklin attended Wesley College in Perth, but grew up following Melbourne, as his father and grandfather had done.

"I was mad Melbourne, the only kid running round in a Melbourne jumper in under-12s," he said.

His heroes were Garry Lyon and David Schwarz."

If only our childhood supporters (Buddy and Judd to name but a few) were playing in Dees colours

If only it was like the good old times!

Irrellevant. Although it would be nice if players these days felt nostalgic and wanted to play for their childhood teams, I'm pretty sure we would be well placed on that list, what with Judd, Buddy, and our very Grimey.

Did he really have to say that?

I'm sure he'll turn out to be another traitor to the cause when push comes to shove.

Scott Pendlebury was a Melbourne supporter too...Buddy, Pendles and Juddy all in the same team...Homahgawd!

 

[Deenamite]

Meh. Hopefully he just goes easy on us in Round 1.

Well that's just great news. I'm all pumped for the new season now. We've got Mike Sheehan, Hinch, Neil Mitchell, too. It's all...It's just all too much.

and Simon Buckley was a melb supporter when growing up altho his brothers go for geelong

Neitz was a St. Kilda fan wasn't he?

After Judd ran for the dollar signs I'll never trust childhood allegiance again.

P.S - Why would you want to claim Steven Milne?
