Ivan was a decorated Bulldog who became a Hawk, while George was a consistent Hawk who elevated his career at Footscray, then ended his career back at Glenferrie.
They played against each other for both teams, but having both swapped clubs to start the 1934 season, never played together at club level, but I believe played in state teams together.

I'm not taking any chances tonight. My Lucky Meal has been delivered and already almost half eaten. Went back Old School and ordered sushi. Special at Sushi Sushi -$2 per handroll and free delivery. Of course, I had to have my favourite, pickled squid salad, as somethig extra! Winner, winner sushi dinner!

Good choices but I’m not totally convinced sushi is acceptable for an evening meal.

I'm at the match and I'm here to say that the AFL Record has really deteriorated. They used to be tailored to each match, but now it just has a small bit of content for every match of the round. And the lineups for the match are instead the current squad. Another thing ruined by Hutchy!

Although I'm amazed it's still $5. Perhaps I shouldn't really complain...

Rupert cannot help himself, he reaches in and f*cks our lives. I’m glad Jerry left you, you old campaigner.

I would love to see Naughton ruck a full game. He would seriously dominate. I know we would never do it because he's too important for our forward line but the guy is such a competitive beast I reckon he would break a lot of records. He wouldn't even try to tap the ball, he'd just grab it and start smashing through campaigners.

Would honestly not be surprise if that happens how we work out the ruck situation.
