Does anyone know if the club is organising a special tribute for the great man this saturday night? e.g. highlights on the big screen? Or if the cheersquad will have something on their banner? Personally would love to see the #17 on the front of the jumpers as we did for Captain Blood after he passed away. He was a great.

Just got this off the afl website. Tipping this will be played on Saturday night. He's chasing and tackling v Footscray at 1.00 reminds me of the heart Richo played with.

Yep - he was definitely up there with the best of the best !
I used to love watching him play - Mr Magic was a pretty apt nickname.
RIP Mr Magic.

I remember when we could run on the ground at the final siren and always heading towards him at the G, Windy Hill, Vic Park. He was always hard to catch at VFL Park.

Essendon would surely be on board with any tribute considering teh family links that Maurice had with that club.

Hope we also do something for Maurice and family in Darwin Saturday week.
