Whilst checking something today, I happened across the Wikipedia page listing our club captains:
As someone steeped so much in our history I can confidently name every coach and captain we've had since joining the (then) VFL, I was astounded to see that Scott Wynd had actually served as a co-captain with Alan Moore:
Now I know I'm getting on in years, but I'm struggling to place Alan Moore. Obviously good enough to co-captain for 7 seasons,
so must have been some player.
Anyone have any memories of Alan Moore they'd like to share? Obviously keeps a low profile these days, as he's not on social media,
but online images indicate he's certainly rocking a decent beard post-AFL career:
Club could do worse than get him back for a pre-match rev-up, looks like he'd be someone Bevo would relate to.
As far as I'm aware, Moore never played in a losing team, never gave away a free kick in his career and had no clangers.
Never missed a shot on goal either. And on those stats alone, we need past legends of Moore's ilk back at the club.
(I'm curious whether adding him to that page is a p1ss-take, a genuine accident, or just a troll.)
