Mick standing next to Leon Harris, the man who delivered the pass to him in the 86 EF against the Bombers at VFL Park which enabled a very quiet Conlan to goal and leave a very young Dylan12 with one of his greatest all time footy memories.
Some great names in that 89 GF team: Johnny Ironmonger, Doc Wheildon, Leon Harris, Mick Dwyer, Ross Thornton etc.

MICHAEL CONLAN
On whether he was involved in the third quarter melee
“Certainly not. At that stage of my career, being 31 years of age, I was well beyond that.
When it did start to happen, I admit that I started to feel sorry for the guys getting hit. Our players did become quite aggressive, and it certainly changed the game.
I cringed a little bit at some of the punches that were thrown, and it sent a shock through Geelong. It certainly sparked a bit of enthusiasm for the rest of our players, and then fortunately we went on and played football.”
