Last year many of us had great fun in playing "Who am I" in the off season.
Thought I might start it up again with a TRUE STORY.
WHO AM I??
Sitting in the train at Flinders Street all by myself and a fellow comes in and sits opposite me and says where are you going mate?
I said actually to Spencer St to pick up a couple of things and then off to the footy.
He said MCC member eh? Yes was my reply. He said I would kill for one of those tickets - I said they are not cheap.
He then said Reckon you barrack for Hawthorn - I said you are right -got it in one - what gave you that idea?
He said my brother played for Hawthorn - I said who is he??
He said give you clues - I said OK (looking at him very carefully)
He said actually I was drafted to Brisbane Bears in the Paul Feltham era.
I said just after Peter Knights left - he said yes would have loved to played for Peter.
Looking at him I thought yeah half forward flanker - are you similar build to your brother? His reply was - fairly similar.
I said What years are we talking for your brother.
Next clue - He said brother played in the 1985 winning Grand final for HFC Reserves.
I said - with Bucky and Knights - he said yes
Relaying this story to Houdinihuddo He stopped me there and gave me the correct answer. I was flabigasted.
