When a Redleg, he and his brother Brenton used to drive the 2 hours from Lameroo to Norwood Oval on a Thursday for training, drive home afterwards, then work all day on the farm on Friday and then drive back to Adelaide for the Saturday game..

Adelaide all-time leading goal-kicker, Tex Walker with former premiership playing Rooster, SA State player, Redlegs dual premiership coach, filled in as coach of Sydney Swans (for 8 games), AFL Hall of Fame, AFC Chairman, the late Bob Hammond (AO players race named in his honour)

Not sure if this was meant to be a depiction of Bob’s happy-face, sad-face or sex-face ??

Brenton “Blipp” didn’t take a bad hanger in his time

This is the first AFL game I ever went to:

Sat on the outer wing and it was great.

My earliest memory was a week earlier watching Peter Sumich kick 13 goals v Footscray and is the reason I follow West Coast.

But Adelaide having a team got me going to games and I appreciate that and have a soft spot for them.

I went to the 97 and 98 GFs as well and it feels both a lifetime ago and not that long ago.View attachment 1615767

Snap! Same here!

Coincidentally my first match as a Crows member was also against Brisbane (round 1, 1997)

Great but sad?

Second worst day in Crows history (after Phil Walsh) …. was developing into a highly skilled KPF and key part of the 2006 flag chase ….

Yeah that was devastating, could have been one of our greats imo

Modra's best grab and he didn't even need to take it as it was already going through for a goal. Shoulder ride over Martyn in the goal square.

Debatable

Debatable

Imagine a thread titled "Modra's best grab".

Almost as crazy as"Eddie's best goal".

It was a Tony McGuiness up and under that wasnt going to make it to the line

It was 97. McGuinness was sacked

Sorry, wrong mark. I need my glasses on. I was thinking of the 93 one.

IIRC this mark Modra played on and hit the top of the goal post from the goal line

I reckon it was this game.

He took that huge floating chest mark this game too

It's a photo rich in meaning. Tex, in his first AFL game as captain, kicks six goals and stands tall like a Greek god, looking down with contempt at his opponent on the ground, with an arm half-raised, as if to protect himself. The Crows have vanquished North Melbourne in their first match of the season and the first with Phil Walsh as coach, 21.12.140 to 9.9.63. It was a great choice for the back page of the paper the following day.
