AFL best to err on side of caution LAURENCE ROSEN

EDITOR’S LETTER
s the weeks have rolled on since the AFL shut down the season after just one round in late March, the void left by a lack of football in the lives of fans has only increased as the reality of the current situation continues to bite. But perhaps the most difficult part to comprehend for people accustomed to football being a regular part of their lives is the lack of tangible return date from AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan. In comparison, the NRL has taken a much more dogged approach led by Rugby League Commission chairman Peter V’Landys. While the AFL has maintained a calmer and more pragmatic approach to dealing with the coronavirus pandemic, V’Landys has touted for weeks that the NRL will be back up and running by May 28. The contrast in approaches by the country’s two major winter football codes has never been starker.
Sydney Swans CEO Tom Harley admitted last week the NRL’s schedule date to return felt too early in his mind. “It instinctively feels a bit early,” he told SEN Breakfast. “Clearly the government has got heavy restrictions on social movements at the moment and May 28 will be here before you know it. “I’m not sure how they’re going to pull that off and I guess the earlier you launch on that, instinctively it feels like the chance of a breakout increases. “I don’t have an issue with the AFL not feeling pressured to start competing with the NRL on this one. “It might be a case of sit back, watch and refine what a restart might look like for the AFL and do it really well that way.” Port Adelaide football boss Chris Davies also raised doubts on the NRL returning in just a few weeks’ time. “Fair play to the NRL, they have been aggressive in their return dates,” he told SEN SA Breakfast. “The review from the AFL (was) done on Monday, they had initially thought about a return to training date, I think, of early May and playing late May. “I doubt whether that will be the case but if the NRL are in a position to get the testing and requirements ready in that time frame, good luck to them.”
u The AFL Record celebrated its 108th birthday last Monday, and we thought it would be fitting to commemorate one of the great premiership triumphs in League history. It happened back in 1966 when St Kilda won its first, and to this day only, premiership by one point as Barry Breen’s wobbly snap trickled through for a behind late in the game
to give his side victory over Collingwood. This Friday, the Saints and the Magpies were scheduled to play the opening game of round seven – so it got us thinking how could we celebrate that memorable day in St Kilda’s history? The answer came via well-known media identity and Saints tragic BRUCE EVA, who

wrote a brilliant piece on the 1966 Grand Final for the 2003 Grand Final Record. Why 2003, we asked? There seemed to be no logical anniversary – but it turns out then Record publisher Geoff Slattery badgered Eva to speak to every player from that game before the inevitable happened and players and officials from that era would pass on.
“It wasn’t like he had to twist my arm but tracking them all down was a challenge,” Eva said. Sadly, skipper Darrel Baldock and coach Allan Jeans have passed away since, as have premiership players Rodger Head and Travis Payze. It’s a great read and we have even added the team page from the 1966 Grand Final Record to stir the emotions. AFL.com.au AFL RECORD 5
ONE WEEK at a TIME With infection rates continuing to stabilise, the AFL – as the biggest code in Australia – is as well placed as any to plot a way forward for sport in this country. Unlike the NRL, the AFL has secured a line of credit from the banks to protect its 18 clubs from the financial pain to come while also gaining support from its broadcasters – something the NRL initially struggled with – on any decision it makes. As it stands, the AFL is in the fortunate position of not being as desperate to get back playing as other codes and therefore is able to wait to make an informed decision on the future of the current season which now appears to be a hub-style scenario. The health and safety of all participants has been at the forefront of everything the AFL has done in previous months, rather than having the need

ormer St Kilda forward Arryn Siposs has been signed by the Detroit Lions as a punter following the NFL Draft. Siposs went undrafted when it all came to an end last Sunday morning, but was quickly picked up by the Lions as a free agent. The Aussie is hoping to fill the vacant punting spot in Detroit, but knows he will have to work hard to make the Lions’ final roster. “I didn’t get drafted which is obviously a little bit disappointing, but I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to go play for the Detroit Lions and earn a spot there,” Siposs told SEN Breakfast. “I’d spoken to them a lot actually. After the combine finished in late February and (there was) a seven-week period before the draft (I) was going to be here and I’d

There’s no doubt that pressure will continue to build on the League to return as soon as possible like the NRL but waiting a few more weeks won’t do the sport any harm. Crisis highlights the best and worst in leaders and unlike his compatriots further north of the border, McLachlan has been a consistently calm and reasoned voice amid the crisis. spoken to them pretty frequently in the lead-up to the draft. “I was confident they wanted me to be part of their organisation. I thought they were going to draft me, but they decided to get some more depth on their offence and defence and they came calling pretty quickly after the draft finished to sign me up as a free agent. “I’ll have to go and compete for a spot (on their 53-man roster) first before I make it to the squad, but I still sign a deal with them and earn a salary. “That’s what the next few months will hold for me.” The Lions lost punter Sam Martin in free agency, leading to their need to find a replacement. Siposs was drafted out of the University of Auburn. His AFL career ended in 2015 due to ongoing shoulder issues. Siposs required three shoulder reconstructions across his short career and never managed to find any continuity at Moorabbin. He played 28 games, after making his debut in 2011. Even back then, he was known for his big kicking, bombing a 60-metre goal on debut against Carlton in round seven.
SUPER BOOT: Former Saint Arryn Siposs hopes to be kicking a different football later this year.
Siposs joins a Detroit team coming off a tough 2019 season. The Lions finished bottom of the NFC North with a 3-12 record, though quarterback Matthew Stafford missed the second half of the season due to injury.

Thumbs up for Hinkley, says Koch
BACKING HIM IN: Ken Hinkley appears to have the full support of Port chairman David Koch.
P
ALEX ZAIA
ort Adelaide chairman David Koch is “extremely confident” Ken Hinkley will be coaching Port Adelaide in 2021. Hinkley confirmed last year there are clauses inserted in his contract – including making the finals in 2020 – to trigger a one-year extension. Koch denied Hinkley was coaching for his career despite the club facing the potential prospect of a third straight year outside the top eight. “As far as I’m concerned, Ken will be coaching next year because we’re incredibly confident of the team that we’ve got now going forward,” Koch told ABC radio. “I don’t talk about people’s contracts but it seems to be a massive focus and I know Ken’s talked about it. My view is Ken’s in a great spot at the moment, the team’s in a great spot. “The work that he’s particularly done in the last two years, in terms of building our list, we could not be happier with. I’m extremely confident that Ken will be coaching next year.” Dual Adelaide premiership coach Malcolm Blight believes the Power board should persist with the Hinkley beyond this season.
Bucks urges hub calm LAURENCE ROSEN
C
ollingwood coach Nathan Buckley is urging the AFL industry to take a step back and reassess what truly matters amid the coronavirus crisis. Players could spend up to 20 weeks away from family in
“He’s only had one losing season (2016) and that was a 10-win season,” Blight told SEN’s Whateley. “I’ve never heard too many rumblings about player issues with him. He seems to be a player’s man. “They had a crack three or four years ago and they’ve made a lot of changes to their list and now looks like the time for fruition.
“If I was on the board at Port Adelaide, I wouldn’t be making any comments at all. I reckon good boards hold the steady course.” North Melbourne great David King feels it would be “unfair” to make judgment calls on under pressure coaches like Hinkley, given the unprecedented nature of the 2020 season. “How unfair do you think it would be to assess coaching performances in the back half of this season? A couple of these guys are coaching for their lives,” King told SEN’s Whateley. Since 2013, Hinkley has coached Port Adelaide to 89 wins in 160 games, including a 47-point round one victory over Gold Coast.
quarantine hubs under a worst-case scenario put forward by AFLPA chief executive Paul Marsh on Tuesday. Buckley said while the current circumstance was far from ideal, it was imperative for all stakeholders to find a “palatable outcome” following the current hub proposal. “We need to prosecute the concepts that are in front of us to get them to the most palatable outcomes,” he said on SEN’s Whateley. “What has been presented is the least palatable
of that idea and I think we need to acknowledge that. “We’re still working out what the best of the worst ideas can be. “We’re talking about one industry in a circumstance where everyone is affected and facing decisions, they never thought they’d have to face in their lives. Not just for themselves but for their people and not just for their people but their people’s families.”

u Graeme Watson,
one of the rare breed to play Test cricket and League football, has died aged 75. Watson played 18 games for Melbourne in 1964-65 before giving football away to concentrate on his cricket career and studies. In 1964, he played 13 games but was squeezed out of the side for the second semi-final and Grand Final which saw the Demons defeat Collingwood in both games. Recruited from amateur side Ormond, Watson played on the wing and on the ball but suffered two broken jaws in 1965. The all-rounder played five tests (1966-72), two ODIs and had the rare distinction of representing three states in Sheffield Shield cricket – Victoria, Western Australia and New South Wales. Watson suffered a nasty injury when struck in the face in an Australia v World XI game in 1972 and required a blood transfusion of 20 litres.

Blue heaven for Prespakis NIC NEGREPONTIS
T
eenage Carlton superstar Madison Prespakis has been crowned the 2020 AFLW Best and Fairest. She finished three votes ahead of Fremantle’s Kiara Bowers (12 votes) and North Melbourne’s Emma Kearney (11 votes). The young Blue polled 15 of a possible 18 votes and was given best-on-ground in all five of Carlton’s wins. Prespakis had a brilliant 2020 season, winning her second Carlton best and fairest and being named in the All-Australian team. She averaged 21 disposals a game, four clearances and was the key reason behind the Blues’ unbeaten run to close the season. The biggest oddity of the voting was North Melbourne midfielder and AFLPA MVP and AFL Coaches Association award winner Jasmine Garner not finishing in the top 15. Western Bulldogs young star Isabel Huntington was crowned the 2020 NAB AFL Rising Star. She was also named in the All-Australian team, capping off a brilliant year after returning from multiple serious knee injuries. Melbourne superstar Karen Paxman was named captain of the All-Australian side, a fitting reward after being named in the team all four years. North Melbourne’s Emma Kearney is the only other player to make it in all four years and she was rewarded with the vice-captaincy. GWS key forward Rebecca Privitelli won Mark of the Year, while Melbourne livewire Kate Hore was awarded Goal of the Year.

Footy life can begin at 40
GIANT STRIDES: Shane Mumford can continue building on his record in No. 41.
Y
GRAHAM PILKINGTON
ou would expect a young aspiring AFL player to be attracted by the lower range of guernsey numbers not the later ones. Think John Nicholls with No. 2, ‘Dusty’ Martin with No. 4, ‘Polly’ Farmer and Gary Ablett snr with No. 5, and Jack Riewoldt wearing No. 8. But the players with the all-time record for matches bearing numerals 40-plus on their back (as listed in the AFL Record Season Guide 2020) are some of the best to have played and they accumulated a massive number of games and awards. There are various ways to get a number. It can be by choice but it may be what is left when your turn comes along. There is always the opportunity to move down once established. Some do not budge from the hand given to them at the start of their careers. Ian Nankervis wore No. 40 at Geelong for 325 games in the 1970s and ’80s. He was a tall rover for the time (183cm) and later was switched, in a bold move, to the back pocket. He captained Geelong, won three best and fairests and shared the leading goalkicking award. Forty is unfortunately in the news at the moment as the word “quarantine” derives from the Italian for 40, being the number of days once required for isolation. Shane Mumford holds the record for No. 41, having played 192 games at Geelong, Sydney (gaining a premiership), and now the Giants (winning a best and fairest) and is still going strong. He will be aiming to smash the 200 mark once the season gets going. The novel The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy provided the solution to the ultimate question: what is the meaning of life? The answer is 42 and for Carlton fans, Robert Walls helped change the Blues’

universe wearing that number. A tall and initially rather slender figure, he debuted at 16 and a goal resulted from his first senior kick. His career then went upwards: 218 games, three flags as a player after a long lean period for the club, twice leading goalkicker, captain, and coach of Carlton in the 1987 premiership year. Another Carlton player, Anthony Koutoufides, strode the field with great impact for 278 games wearing 43, his favourite number. A big versatile and athletic player, he won a flag, he was captain and a leading club goalkicker, and won the best and fairest twice. Injuries prevented him reaching the 300-game milestone. Corey Enright of Geelong holds the joint record for games with 44 on the back. It was for a massive 332 appearances, a feat he shares with Justin Madden. But Madden did it at Essendon initially and then Carlton for most of his games, so not quite the one club record-holder. Madden was a 206cm ruckman who gathered a pair of flags and best and fairest awards for the Blues in a long career. Enright was a great modern half-back, winning three premierships and two best

and fairests, both in flag years. He passed Nankervis’ record number of games for his club and played in more wins than any other Geelong footballer (220/332). Another player for the Cats takes the record for No. 45, with 246 games. Three premierships, one as captain, plus a best and fairest, were justly earned by Cameron Ling, who was a tagger as well as an influential midfielder. In Australian sport, 45 is a number of historic importance.
It is the number of runs by which Australia beat England in the first ever cricket test match in 1877 at the MCG, and incredibly, 45 runs was the winning margin in the Centenary Test in 1977 with Australia the victor again at the ’G. Not even David Walsh, professional gambler and creator of MONA in Hobart, could calculate the odds of that happening! A current player holds the record wearing No. 46 and he’s another Cat. Mark Blicavs, with 159 games and two best and fairest awards, playing ruck, defence, and controversially, wing in a final. His fitness and versatility should mean he pushes the record well into 200 games. For young footballers looking for a way into the AFL Record Season Guide by clever guernsey number selection, from here on there is an opportunity, as the totals begin to drop away. Alan Jarrott played 170 games for North Melbourne (just missing selection in the 1977 premiership team), and Melbourne, wearing No. 47, but No. 48 is held by Mal Michael of Collingwood with only 61
appearances (he finished with 238 games in total for his three clubs plus three flags). Brian Cordy reached 124 matches with the Bulldogs wearing No. 49. It would also help if you play for Geelong or Carlton as these clubs feature from 40 to 46 (and Darren Milburn of the Cats just failed to squeeze in, wearing No. 39 for a record 292 games). But the message is clear: as a player, don’t fear the forties.
COOL CAT: Former Geelong star Corey Enright is the joint record-holder for most games in No. 44.
DURABLE: Ian Nankervis holds the record for most games wearing No. 40.
When the Record was the story u The AFL Record, which turned 108 earlier this week, has been part of the game’s fabric since the very first edition was published on April 27, 1912. In that time, the Record has survived two World Wars, the Spanish flu, the Great Depression, an airline strike in 1989 – just when the game was going national – and now COVID-19. But it has never missed a beat and even today, with no games being played, the Record continues to inform and entertain via the digital platforms of SEN and the AFL. The Record has never sought to “sensationalise” the game and is more about celebrating great milestones and anniversaries and providing up-to-date stats and information.
The message is clear ... don’t fear the forties But back in 1958, the Record did inadvertently become a “story” on the game’s biggest day. Leading up to the Melbourne v Collingwood decider (where the Demons were long odds on to win their fourth straight premiership), The Sun-News Pictorial, the predecessor of today’s Herald Sun, published player numbers without permission of the VFL. To protect the integrity of the Record (and the League’s commercial interests, and those of its licensee), the League decreed that players from the Collingwood and Melbourne teams play with different numbers on their backs. Demons captain Ron Barassi was forced to give up his famous No. 31, and wore No. 2. Stand-in Collingwood skipper Murray Weideman – famous for the bruising tactics he and teammate Barry ‘Hooker’ Harrison employed against Barassi – wore No. 1, instead of his normal No. 27. The only player who did not change numbers was Magpies big man Ray Gabelich (No. 13). The reason? He was so big no one could find a large enough replacement jumper!
It was a famous day for the black and whites who not only upset the more fancied Demons, they protected their VFL/AFL record of four successive premierships set back in 1927-30.

SATURDAY, APRIL 18 (DAY 27)
A
s a kid growing up in the country the pressure of time certainly did not feel as suffocating as it does in the city. The ticking of a clock was not as important as being somewhere and being fully present. Evenings in winter would be spent at the local football oval, with summer nights at the local cricket ground. The whole thing around isolation has forced me to start to enjoy the simple pleasures again. This morning I walked around to our local bakery and purchased a fresh loaf of bread. A fresh piece of sourdough, toasted with Vegemite, is one of my favourite things. Add a coffee and the Saturday newspaper and life’s pretty good. In the rush of the previous normal, I would often not have breakfast at home. Always rushing out the door to do something, not eating breakfast until I arrived at the club. To sit back and take time to soak in the start of the day is something that I will continue post isolation.
SUNDAY, APRIL 19 (DAY 28) u I have always been a fan of F1 so when they released Drive to Survive I was excited. Candice, not being an F1 fan, did not feel the same way. She became a fan of season one and today we sat down to watch part of season two. The interesting thing about these documentaries is that they follow the people and the emotions involved. Also, the details of the inner workings of each team is on show. It now has increased its fan base by one with Candice becoming an admirer of Toto Wolff (Mercedes Team principal). The AFL should really look at partnering with a production company like this. It is another way to
12 AFL RECORD
SEN.com.au
bring fans closer to the game and show everyone the inner workings of club land. Coronavirus has shown on so many levels how people can come together and cooperate. Whether that be at a government or at AFL level, things that would usually take months, even years to complete, are taking hours. I think that the industry as a whole will be more open with allowing access. I find when the weather is unfavourable, that is when boredom sets in. Over the past couple of days, irritation levels have started to increase within our household. So, this afternoon I decided to load the fire pit and replace the gas on the BBQ. Sometimes there is nothing like a few hours outside with the fire burning and the dog next to you!
MONDAY, APRIL 20 (DAY 29) u This morning we had a zoom chat with the entire playing list and some key personnel in the football department to discuss the possibilities of a restart. I think everyone is getting the feeling that the season might resume earlier than we first thought. It’s a testament to the way that as a community/country we have been able to slow the spread of COVID-19 and hopefully we will get back to a new and improved normal ASAP. Monday nights is ABC primetime, starting with 7.30 Report , Australian Story, Four Corners, Media Watch and Q&A . Tonight, 7.30 Report was especially interesting. Former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull was interviewed about his new book, A Bigger Picture. He certainly did not hold back, and it made quite compelling television for 30 minutes. Whether he was trying to increase the sales of his book or not, it motivated me to go and purchase it. If being a lawyer for
some of Australia’s most influential people and PM of Australia was not enough, he has now turned to be a salesman and a successful one if I’m a case in point!
TUESDAY, APRIL 21 (DAY 30) u The NBA is certainly not a passion of mine, but I do enjoy watching the playoffs. I admire many players, their athletic ability and love how America has understood before many countries that sport is pure entertainment. What happens on the court is only so much of the merry-go-round. Embracing individuals’ personalities without the tall poppy syndrome. This gets me to the Michael Jordan documentary The Last Dance. Sitting down watching it gives an insight into America’s, if not the world’s, greatest athlete. Someone who many years post his playing career is still the highest paid sportsperson in the world … enter Air Jordan. He played with a mindset of being the best but what I found most interesting was the inner workings of the Chicago Bulls. How the GM put together a championship roster but, with championships comes egos. Ultimately in the end, egos were fighting with each other. I am very much looking forward to the rest of the series!
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22 (DAY 31) u I had to do a bit of filming for the club today, channelling my inner Hugh Jackman. It was about connecting with the Hawthorn community and giving them an insight into what our everyday lives currently look like. I hope that fans from all clubs are enjoying the content that media departments are creating. Staying connected to our supporter base at Hawthorn has been priority No. 1 for us as players. For me the reason that playing AFL football is so great is the fans. You all generate so much energy and passion around the game. Without doubt the No. 1 thing about playing AFL football is doing it in front of a full stadium. I hope after social distancing that our stadiums are overflowing with supporters and the AFL is bigger than it has ever been.
For the fans
Slow and steady wins THURSDAY, APRIL 23 (DAY 32) u We no longer need an alarm clock in our house. Isla is now at an age where 6am hits and baby talk begins. For me it is nice, as I enjoy rising early and making the most of the morning. Candice not so much! Today was a quiet day – a slow cooker was put on mid-morning and I love walking back into the house around 5pm to smell aroma that has infused the kitchen and living areas. The bonus is come dinner time it’s already done and then it’s pure relaxation. For anyone with a sense of humour who has not seen White Chicks, I highly recommend it. An all-time favourite of my wife’s. There was no sound needed as Candice proceeded to quote the movie from start to finish. Is there anything more annoying?
FRIDAY, APRIL 24 (DAY 33) u Today was the first time since I have been in the AFL system that I have enjoyed just going for a kick. The beauty of being with a mate, trying different kicks and creating small games between each other. It is amazing that when something becomes your job and therefore you are expected do it, the fun and enjoyment can be taken out if it. Previously I would do it because I knew I had to, but this was different. The older we get the less child-like we become. Why should we ever take the joy out of activities, we are all human after all!

300 Games
Uncharted TERRITORY
As he prepares to equal and then establish a momentous milestone, Andrew McLeod talks of his love of the land, his community and the game. By Shane McNally. SPOILS OF VICTORY: McLeod, supported by skipper Mark Bickley, holds the 1998 premiership cup aloft.

hen the smooth-moving, super quick teenager first ran on to the West Lakes turf as a Crow in 1995 via a convoluted trade with Fremantle, Adelaide supporters were hoping Andrew McLeod would develop into an opportunist who might be the difference in a few important matches. Fast forward a couple of years and the young dynamo had graduated from pinch-hitting runner to a man who was the difference between the Crows’ best 21 claiming their first AFL premiership and standing in the MCG’s afternoon shadows watching their St Kilda counterparts hold the Holy Grail aloft. McLeod had arrived not just as a good player and occasional gamebreaker but a bona fide superstar. And this was in just his first 60 games. He had a Norm Smith Medal around his neck and
was about to claim the club champion award, and he’d barely turned 21. The magnitude of such lofty achievements and the attentions of other clubs trying to lure him ought to have put unbearable pressure on the kid from Darwin but he didn’t miss a beat. He turned in a superb and disciplined 1998 season, claimed All-Australian selection and helped Darren Jarman put away a raging-hot North Melbourne en route to the Crows’ second flag. The effort to perform on a bad knee on the biggest stage of the year didn’t go unnoticed and McLeod became only the second player to win successive Norm Smith medals. A decade on, as one of the game’s all-time greats reaches the 300-mark, McLeod is still delivering the magic. He’s anything but an aching 30-something champion, with his bursts off half-back still leaving fans gasping and his delivery something few in the game can match. It’s been a hell of a journey. McLeod went from teenage
prodigy playing for the Darwin Buffaloes to a premiership season with the Port Adelaide Magpies before father Jock encouraged him to move to the big league. What might have been a simple move to Fremantle went wrong when father and son weren’t impressed with the welcome provided by some in the Dockers’ hierarchy. McLeod wasn’t going to play for Fremantle and the Crows were the beneficiaries of one of the club’s great trade wins in a swap for key-position player Chris Groom, who unfortunately never made a name for himself at the highest level. Any doubts about whether the shy kid with the rare talent would fulfil his potential were quickly laid to rest. The 1997 yellow jacket in the wardrobe, presented to the club champion, and the two Norm Smith medals were just the start of an honour roll equalled by few in the history of the game. He’s gone on to win two more club champion awards, been an All-Australian five times, placed in two Brownlow Medal counts, played in three International Rules Series, won a Michael

UNCHARTED TERRITORY> Tuck Medal for best player in the Crows’ 2003 pre-season premiership and, in perhaps the crowning glory of a great career, was named All-Australian captain last year. These achievements are not the stuff of accident or half-hearted effort and McLeod knows his upbringing has had a lot to do with the player he has become. Playing Australian Football, rugby league and union, touch football and soccer all year round helped him hone his skills and, mixing it with the bigger bodies of the senior players as a skinny kid in Darwin taught him, through necessity, how to avoid getting hurt. But it was more than that; McLeod had some pretty good people in his corner to guide him. “No doubt the biggest influence has been my dad and my brother Jonathan, by just being dad and brother,” he says. “The old man has always been there to give great advice and help you through life experiences and Jonathan is one of the main reasons I played a lot of sport. I followed him around as a kid and just wanted to be like him. “There was Greg Bruce, who was someone I really looked up to, my first real footy hero growing up. “Michael McLean was a bit like a mentor, someone who really gave a lot of time to me as a young bloke and still does today. He was one of the first guys to leave the Territory and get picked up. “You pinch bits and pieces from different people you admire but, ultimately, you have to style your game to suit yourself.” For all that, McLeod didn’t think he would make a career out of football and it took a bit of prompting from his father to bring out the best in him. More than prompting, in fact, as Jock McLeod drove off, leaving a teary-eyed teenager with the Port Magpies to deal 20

It was the hardest decision Jock ever made but he knew that if he took his son back to Darwin to collect his things, he would never return. “I didn’t think I was going to make any sort of career out of it but I knew I wanted to play footy so it was probably a good thing that the old man did,” he said. “It made me grow up a bit quicker. But I was lucky, I had a very good family, the Duffields, who looked after me and helped me settle and get through. “They’re a family I’m still very close to. They support Port but they have a soft spot for the Crows and number 23.” For the man who has achieved virtually everything there is to achieve in football, equalling
Gavin Wanganeen’s record of 300 games for an indigenous player holds a pride of place for the 32-year-old, alongside the “special” moment of being named All-Australian captain. “I’m pumped to be reaching the milestone alongside Gav, someone I’ve admired and marvelled at over my career,” he said. “Being one of the first two indigenous people to do it is pretty special. Hopefully it will inspire some young Aboriginal boy in the sticks to want to play AFL footy and be like Gavin Wanganeen and Andrew McLeod and play 300 games. And hopefully someone can go on and beat it. “There are a few things that really stand out and that’s right up there. “So is being named All-Australian captain and being able to lead my country against Ireland and captain the Indigenous All-Stars Team of the Century.” Indigenous honours are of special significance for McLeod, who is committed to putting NATIONAL PRIDE: One of McLeod’s career highlights was leading his country in the International Rules Series in 2005.
t the end of every AFL season, when the opportunity presents to head north to his spiritual home, Andrew McLeod leaves the champion footballer tag behind and becomes the saltwater man again. This is the man in touch with the land and the sea and all it offers, camped under the stars thousands of kilometres from the roar of the packed stadiums. “I’m a saltwater man from the saltwater people,” McLeod explains. “It’s my love of the sea and all things of it. Growing up, I was always out in the bush or fishing and spending time in the water. “I go fishing as much as I can with my brother, getting out with my family. It’s something I really look forward to, going home. “I think it’s important for me to show my kids and teach them about where I come from and a bit about my heritage.” McLeod has a sense of mischief about not disclosing his fishing spots or whether he uses the spears he collects but is firm in his resolve not to give away any secrets. “I can’t tell you, they’re secret spots,” he says with a wry smile. “Just the shores around Darwin and out from Darwin a bit. A lot of the fishing is just done with reels, you have to be careful with spears. “A lot of times I go overnight or for a couple of days and chill out. It’s an opportunity not only to enjoy fishing but it recharges me and helps to get away from the normal-day hassles.” For all his love of the Territory, McLeod and wife Rachael have just built a new house and intend making Adelaide home for their children Connor and Madison – in their immediate future at least. He admits, though, that the call of the Territory is never far away and will keep drawing him north for a couple of days and nights near the water and it will always be home.

McLeod was bedridden with injury the last time the club went north but will be personally taking the message to the remote Northern Territory communities at the end of the year. “It’s an opportunity to give back to the remote communities we don’t spend a lot of time in,” he said. “With the fostership program, we go into the schools and help the kids with some healthy lifestyle choices. It’s a real relationship with the communities. “There’s still a way to go in regards to cultural awareness and clubs being up to speed with the differences and the things Aboriginal people face but it’s a lot better and something the AFL is trying to do. “The Crows have been very good over the past few years and it’s important for the people in the footy club to see how essential culture is to indigenous people.” McLeod still has a lot of football left and is focused on helping Adelaide reach for another premiership.

are gone, he believes the club has the talent, balance and well-drilled determination to beat any side on its day. Despite recent injuries to Brett Burton and Jason Porplyzia, he says the side works on the premise that when one player goes down, another steps up. With players such as Simon Goodwin, Tyson Edwards, Nathan van Berlo, Scott Thompson, Ben Rutten, Nathan Bock, Nathan Bassett and Graham Johncock, there’s plenty of senior talent ready to help the younger players do just that. “There’s always a burning ambition to win another premiership,” he says. “It’s why we play football. It’s nice to be back amongst it and we hold our own destiny.
“We’re very capable but first we’ve got to get there. It’s a team thing. The one thing Neil (Craig) has brought in is the weight of numbers and everybody contributing.” At an age when many have retired or are contemplating it, McLeod is confident of his ability to deliver at the highest level for some time to come. How long? Well, the changing nature of the game forces him to review his career “one year at a time” although, in his defence, the cliché is foisted upon him. Adelaide’s policy of giving over 30s one-year contracts means the champ will play next year but then he’ll have to sit down with the club and work out the numbers for the following season. While he is in this form, the year-by-year pattern should continue for a few seasons yet, but life after football is still something he knows he needs to consider. “I’m not entirely sure where I’m headed, whether I continue my work in the media,” he says. “I don’t think I have the coaching bug.
“I’ve enjoyed working with the indigenous communities, and I’m doing some study, so hopefully I’ve got a few areas covered.” Somewhere over the past 14 years, McLeod has become a journeyman. But unlike the fighters who wear that title, he still has the raw, explosive talent to match the heart and the will to win. And anyone who has watched him one-grab the ball at full tilt, tuck it into his side and leave desperate opponents in his wake as he glides along the AAMI Stadium wing, knows this is more a breathtaking ride than a journey. And it’s far from over. ■ FOOTNOTE McLeod made his AFL debut this time 25 years ago and played his 300th game in round 19, 2008. A knee injury forced his retirement during the 2010 season after playing 340 games (still a club record) and kicking 275 goals. He was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame in 2014. McLeod and wife Rachael partner with the Crows to run the McLeod Centre of Excellence which assists indigenous students with their education and development.

1966 GRAND FINAL
WHEN THE
SAINTS
IN MARCHED
It was 37 years ago – in 1966 – when St Kilda won its first and only premiership. Few Grand Finals have been as dramatic as that match against Collingwood, when the young Saints prevailed in a gripping contest by just one point. Bruce Eva relives one of the classic Grand Finals. He spoke with each member of the St Kilda side, as well as its coach, Allan Jeans.

s the players completed their warm-ups before the 1997 St KildaAdelaide Grand Final, Allan Jeans turned to fellow AFL Life Member Bob Rose in the MCG’s Great Southern Stand and asked: “Who are you barracking for today, Bob?” Without hesitation, Rose replied: “You’ve got no idea how hard I’m barracking for St Kilda, because if they win, they’ll stop showing that bloody 1966 Grand Final”. Jeans and Rose were victor and vanquished respectively, the St Kilda and Collingwood coaches in the game the Magpie legend was referring to. Thirty-seven years have elapsed since the Saints’ maiden – and only – flag, and the passion surrounding September 24, 1966, refuses to dissipate.

Why? A combination of it being the AFL’s least successful club’s solitary premiership; the most recent, and one of only three, title deciders to be won by the narrowest possible margin; the fact it was Collingwood on the receiving end of the one-point result, and that the match was accompanied by arguably the most famous minutes of Australian television sports commentary is a fair foundation to suggest the 1966 Grand Final will still be as famous in another 37 years as it is today. The fact this ‘event’ occurred almost four decades ago makes putting together the pieces that surround the game itself a little like a jigsaw puzzle. Through the mists of time, our memories play tricks on us, therefore it is hardly surprising the 20 men immortalised in red, white and black history give conflicting accounts of the episode that changed their lives forever.
Interviewing all of them, plus Jeans s and chairman of selectors Des Nisbet, over a two-month period was a fascinating nating exercise. Some players unsuccessfully fought back t back tears as they related what it meant; a couple admitted to still having mixed feelings about the day because of their ir roles. However, the overall feeling was – s – not surprisingly – of an unbreakable bond bond between the playing group. Every Grand Final has many subplots, ots, but but it is doubtful if one has had as many as Stas St Kilda’s attempt in 1966 to end what Sydney Sydney surpassed only last year as the longest t premiership drought in AFL/VFL history.ory. The adage, ‘You have to lose one to know know how to win one’, could have been createdated after the Saints’ 1965-1966 seasons. In ’65 n ’65 the Saints had roared into only their second second Grand Final – and first in 52 years – as hot as hot favourites, but were swept aside by a more more composed Essendon.
Such is the bizarre nature of St Kilda, many rate the official post-match function at the Southern Cross Hotel in 1965 as a better night than the one at McClure’s Restaurant 12 months later after the flag had been claimed. Jeans, who had turned 33 only three days before the 1966 Grand Final but was in his sixth season at the helm, points out that lessons were learnt not just in 1965, but in the narrow first semi-final losses of 1961 and 1963. That nine-point defeat to Footscray in 1961 was the club’s first finals appearance since the 1939 preliminary final and only its 10th final in total. Jeans received the first of several letters from the revered Len Smith, who was then coaching Fitzroy and would later coach Richmond, not long after that loss to the Bulldogs. He offers this information when asked what lessons were learnt by the Grand Final loss of 1965. “I go back further than that. In my first year, I played some unfit players (in the semi against Footscray), and I’ve got a letter from Len Smith,” Jeans said.
Through the mists of time, our memories play tricks on us, therefore it is hardly surprising the 20 men immortalised in red, white and black history give conflicting accounts of the episode that changed their lives forever. “That first one (letter) said analyse yourself. He didn’t say analyse your team, he said analyse yourself. You asked about 1965, well, analyse yourself and make sure you don’t make the same mistakes, because human behaviour is basically governed from two things – learning from past experiences and setting your goals accordingly.” Many things were done differently in ’66 compared with ’65 – no Friday night team meeting and a slightly different bus route to the MCG to appease the superstitious are just two. However, a point rarely highlighted is that there were seven changes from the team that went under to the Bombers to the one that outlasted the Magpies.
1966
Amazingly, the 1966 Grand Final senior 20 had played a total of only three more games than the 20 that represented the club a year earlier – 1176 games to 1173. Another startling statistic is that in both years, half the side hadn’t yet played 50 senior matches. The ‘ins’ for ’66 were Brian Mynott, Barry Breen, Allan Davis, John Bingley, Jeff Moran, Travis Payze and Kevin Billing. The ‘outs’ included the entire ruck division from ’65 – Carl Ditterich (suspended), Des Kennedy (injured in the second semi) and Ian Rowland (omitted after the preliminary) – plus Kevin Roberts, Ray Cross, Bob Morton and Bruce McMaster-Smith.

There could have been an eighth change. Inspirational captain Darrel Baldock had spent Grand Final week with his family at Trevenson Park Stud in Maldon, north-west of Melbourne, escaping the spotlight and continuing rehabilitation on the right knee injury he had carried for five weeks. He had tweaked the damaged joint at training on the Thursday night before the game, causing Jeans to curtail what was going to be a light session anyway. To prevent any prying Magpie eyes from becoming aware of the champion’s plight, training finished with Baldock deliberately ‘planted’ in the middle of the group that then ran one final lap of Moorabbin Oval. The skipper was given a pain-killing injection in the rooms, but it wasn’t until the following night, with Baldock at his home in Cheltenham, that he convinced himself he was ready to lead his mates into football’s biggest battle. “After nightfall (on the Friday), I still had this doubt (as to whether I’d get through),” Baldock explained. “I was still kicking my leg around, jogging around in the back yard, then I decided to go for a run through the streets … and the better I got, the faster I went. I got back home, had a good night’s sleep and woke up (on the Saturday) knowing I’d be right.” That wasn’t the only drama at the club’s final training session before the Grand Final. While the main group jogged off to a rousing reception from the several thousand-strong crowd, Jeans kept up to a dozen players (borderline selections and

reserves players) on the track, paired them off and put them through a gruelling 20 minutes of contesting work. A major focus was John Bingley. The hard-as-nails Tasmanian was identified by the match committee as the player to stand star forward Des Tuddenham, after the Collingwood skipper virtually won the second semi-final off his own boot with seven goals on Daryl Griffiths – a performance that had left Griffiths in tears and inconsolable in the rooms after the 10-point loss.

Bingley, brought into the side for the preliminary final against Essendon, had suffered a badly corked thigh just before three-quarter time of that match. “You could have belted it with a sledgehammer and it wouldn’t have hurt – that’s how hard it was,” he recalled. Bingley got through the searching fitness test, but it took its toll. He crept into the toilets as soon as he left the field and vomited as quietly as he could to avoid attention. Payze, who took part in the drill too, also remembers dragging himself off the ground in a physically distressed state. Only one change was made to the side that demolished the Bombers – rover Ian ‘Doggy’ Rowland, after playing in 18 of 20 games that season, was dumped in favour of Kevin Billing. Jeans said Billing “added more versatility because he could play back or forward”, but also noted that the demotion of such a popular clubman as Rowland was “a sad and hard part of it”. To top the night off, many players recounted being offered a sleeping tablet as they left Linton Street that evening, to ensure a good night’s rest was had on the Friday. It was an era when dieticians were as fashionable as low-cut boots, meaning Saturday’s morning fare is practically worth a story itself. Kevin ‘Cowboy’ Neale declared his pre-game feed consisted of “opening the fridge and eating whatever was dead”, compared to the Sustagen drinks fitness fanatic Ross Smith swore by, and had converted a handful of his teammates to.

1966 GRAND FINAL
way he did the previous year when the final siren sounded. It was possibly the last words any player on the MCG heard for the next 30 minutes, as Ross Smith nominated the noise resounding around the famous stadium during the final quarter as the loudest he has ever experienced – and that includes the 1971 Grand Final, when almost 17,000 more people were jammed in for the Saints’ clash with Hawthorn. Howell concurs, because when runner Wilson delivered him the message late in the term that he was to move on to the ball, he had to ask three or four times for it to be repeated because he couldn’t hear what Wilson was saying. The mindset of the only one of the 40 players not to get a run during the afternoon, St Kilda’s 20th man Kevin Billing, changed markedly as the dramatic final chapter was played out – still in his dressing gown, he didn’t want to get the call to go on with just minutes to play because he knew he was on a hiding to nothing. Goals to winger Moran and Neale (his fifth after a kick forward by Moran) for the Saints had been matched by goals to Tuddenham and key forward Ian Graham for the Magpies. Max Pitt then kicked one of the greatest-ever final-quarter Grand Final goals from the boundary line to bring the Woods back to within a point. “It was a marvellous kick,” his direct opponent Howell said. “I couldn’t believe he made it. It would have to be one of the greatest kicks ever seen on the MCG.” Tuddenham’s behind to level the scores after 23-and-a-half minutes set up the frantic final moments, punctuated by the most famous behind in Australian Football history, which was scored 27 minutes and 15 seconds into the term. Barry Breen kicked it, and this is how it happened: Field umpire Jeff Crouch bounces the ball on St Kilda’s right half-forward flank. Brian Mynott and Trevor Steer both get a hand on the tap and Collingwood’s Ted Potter, facing the boundary line, grabs the ball on the first bounce. Ross Smith tries to tackle Potter, but his momentum takes him past the Magpie, although the ball does bobble out of Potter’s hands. Mynott approaches, and his arm going across

THE SILVERWARE: With a cut above his lip, and while Magpies skipper Des Tuddenham looks on, Darrel Baldock hoists St Kilda’s only premiership cup.
Potter’s right shoulder helps force the Magpie’s handball into the air. Breen reaches it on the full at thigh height and immediately gets ball to boot from 35-40 metres on a 50-degree angle. It hits the turf only two metres from the goal line between the goal and point posts, bounces high to the right and breaks the line at point post height for a minor score. St Kilda 10.14 (74), Collingwood 10.13 (73). “I just grabbed the ball and thought, ‘I’ve got to kick this’” Breen said. “I had a look at the goal and I was lined up (with the goals). Everything was right in terms of how I should have a shot at goal, but I just didn’t hit it (right). “It wasn’t like you’d kicked the winning point because we didn’t know how long there was to go. We just wanted to keep it down there (in our forward line), but as it turned out it was.” Incredibly, Moran, who was five metres to Breen’s right as he launched his fateful kick, Alan Morrow and Cooper didn’t think it was a behind. “I started running down to the pocket to take the boundary throw-in,” Morrow mused. Griffiths, who was directly behind Breen, and the same distance from him as Moran, said: “We were so lucky Ted Potter handballed the ball out. Had he sat on that ball, maybe we could have been playing the following week (in a replay), and I know
our fellas had just had enough. Physically and mentally they were pretty tired.” Like any great drama, this match still had one last sting in its tail – a Collingwood counter-attack built on yet another fine Waters mark, followed by a booming kick to the Southern Stand half-back flank. The ball sailed over Saint Jim Read and his Magpie opponent Peter Patterson, and bounced into the path of Tuddenham. During my interview with Bingley, the point he stressed more than any was that he wasn’t on the Collingwood skipper when this moment arrived. “He’d gone on to the ball about halfway through the quarter, and I asked Ron Wilson (the runner), ‘Do you want me to follow him on to the ball?’, but no message came back so I just stayed across half-back.” For what it’s worth, Cooper, who was best afield, volunteered that he thought he was meant to be on him. The ball had bounced twice before Tuddenham gathered it – the second time so high that both his feet were off the ground as he took possession – but even with open space in front of him, he took only three strides before kicking to half-forward. With seconds seeming like minutes, Morrow recalls screaming at Smith to chase Tuddenham before he kicked it, and the champion rover was aware that he had to “make an effort, and that by doing that,

he had to kick it”. Smith was 10 to 15 metres away when ‘Tuddy’ let fly from the defensive side of the wing, and the kick travelled at least 50 metres. Close inspection of the video reveals that no Collingwood player was ever a realistic chance of marking the kick, which in no way detracts from the ‘game-saving’ grab by Bob Murray, or his composure given the circumstances. “I don’t remember thinking, ‘He (Tuddenham) is going to keep running’,” Murray said. “I expected him to kick it for some reason. A lot of people say he should have run a lot further, but to me it didn’t look as though he could run that much further.” As the ball arrived – Murray estimates it was still 35 to 40 metres from the Magpies’ goal – the Saint full-back’s biggest danger of being spoilt was from his own captain, with Baldock coming from his left as another teammate, Sierakowski, started flying from the other side. For the Pies, John Henderson, at the front, was never in a position to mark, and Ray Gabelich arrived too late from the right. As the two-grab mark was completed, and Murray back-pedalled surveying his options, the shadow of Baldock can be seen taking off to the outer half-back flank. “I looked out there and I saw Alan Morrow and Darrel Baldock, (and thought) if ‘Mocha’ (Morrow) drops it, Doc’s going to get it,” Murray explained. “It was just a logical place to kick it because of the personnel that were around. We had it pretty well covered either way, in the air or on the ground.

#1 PRESSURE PLAYERS
SCOTT PENDLEBURY NUMBERS TELL THE STORY u At a stage in his illustrious career when he
would have been forgiven for dropping his output, the Collingwood skipper reasserted himself as one of the greats of the modern game in 2019. Quite simply, the numbers tell the story. There is the raw data that shows Pendlebury earned his first All-Australian selection in five years and his sixth overall. The visionary midfielder finished runner-up in the Magpies’ best and fairest – his 11th top-three placing, a competition-high and equal-fourth of all-time alongside legends Leigh Matthews (Hawthorn) and John Nicholls (Carlton). Then came the ‘grunt’ statistics – he averaged 27 possessions (10 contested), four clearances and five tackles, led the club in inside 50s (112, sixth-best in the AFL), was second in possessions and tackles. He also passed 300 games and claimed the club record for the most career votes in the Brownlow Medal. Pendlebury has now polled 194 Brownlow votes. Of current players, only Gary Ablett (261), Patrick Dangerfield (209) and Joel Selwood (198) have polled more. According to Champion Data, Pendlebury also racked up 1112 pressure points from 497 pressure acts last year. Champion Data introduced its pressure point system in 2011 as a way of measuring defensive intent beyond just tackles, spoils and smothers. Points are awarded for corralling (1.2), chasing (1.5), closing (2.75) and physical pressure (3.75).

SOUNDS OF SILENCE: There will be no roar when the premiership cup is held aloft later this year.

Year of the fairest flag All teams on a level playing field when footy returns.
T
he 2020 AFL season will have an asterisk, all right. But contrary to what many have prophesied, that asterisk will carry the footnote that this was among the fairest seasons in history. League chief Gillon McLachlan’s announcement in March that COVID-19 had reduced this season to a 17-round competition, with every team playing each other once, provides a shot of clarity in a time of massive uncertainty. This looms as the fairest season – rid of compromised fixturing – for as long as just about anyone can remember. Those yearning for an equitable draw can finally rejoice. Contrary to the belief in some circles that this year’s premier will always have a question mark around them, they will actually provide an emphatic answer. It will be the fairest flag. Sure, the unprecedented nature of this year will also include potentially radical scheduling and most likely accommodation arrangements that players, coaches and officials have never experienced before. But does that mean we dismiss the legitimacy of the eventual

premier? Do we look upon the premiers during the Great Depression in that vein? Or those who triumphed during the war years? Or those who saluted when the salary cap was introduced? Or when clubs were added into the competition and byes created? Surely, once the terms are set for the season you live by them. Every club will resume its campaign with the same information and one will emerge as the best. “I’ve heard the asterisk label bandied around and it is a different season, a different time, but we’ll be happy to have an asterisk next to our name,” Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley said. Gold Coast coach Stuart Dew told SEN that whatever side got its hands on the cup this season should receive more praise rather than less. “It might have an asterisk for a good reason because this is going to be a challenging one and how players and staff and

football clubs are handling, not just how we come back but this period now, if you win the flag this year you’ve certainly earned it,” Dew said. “So it would be no less (difficult), that’s for sure. It’s going to be harder. It’s just going to look so different and it will be one everyone can look back and reflect upon and I guess there’s going to be a lot of lessons learned too.” Obviously, the great shame will be that this most deserving of teams won’t get their true moment in the sun. The 2020 premiership cup, wherever and whenever it is held aloft, won’t precede that spine-tingling roar. It will be thrust into the air in front of empty stands and with the backdrop of an eerie echo. It generates an ugly visual to a normally magical moment, but that shouldn’t make the hard work to get there any less admired.

Matthew Pavlich kicked six goals, had 21 touches and picked up three Brownlow Medal votes, Luke McPharlin and Des Headland booted five each while Peter Bell (28 possessions) and Josh Carr (39 touches) both had a day out to also attract votes. The tally of 180 remains the club’s highest score and the 112-point margin their second-highest victory. Another fabulous round seven team performance came in 2014

ADELAIDE v PORT ADELAIDE, 2000 ‘Roo’ made a habit of striking the fear of god into opposition midfielders and defenders alike. In the first Showdown of 2000 – and just the seventh overall – the Crows legend dragged his side over the line at Football Park. Ricciuto was racking up the footy at will and doing as he pleased whenever he strode forward in his side’s come-from-behind win. The Crows trailed by five goals at half-time and 25 points at the final break before kicking six goals to one in the final term to get up by seven points. They have Ricciuto’s 41 disposals, 11 clearances and four goals to thank for the gritty triumph.

when Hawthorn had its way with St Kilda. The Hawks piled on 27 goals at the MCG while restricting the Saints to just four majors, crushing them by 145 points. In 2006, the Swans kicked the same score as the Dockers – 28.12 (180) – when they annihilated Richmond by 118 points at Docklands.
3. TOM LYNCH
ADELAIDE v GWS GIANTS, 2013 u Seven years ago, Lynch was
unstoppable when he dined out on the second-year club. What made this dominant display even more significant was that it was only Lynch’s 16th senior game. After struggling to establish himself at St Kilda, the hard-working forward made his way to Adelaide and it didn’t take him too long to prove himself in Crows colours. In the 135-point win at the Sydney Showgrounds, Lynch outscored the Giants with his 10.2, along with 21 disposals and 11 marks. However, it wasn’t enough for best-on-ground honours from the umpires. They gave three Brownlow votes to Patrick Dangerfield for his 28 touches and four goals.
4. JONATHAN BROWN
BRISBANE v HAWTHORN, 2006 u The former Brisbane star
has figured a few times in this column. That’s because he loved
big performances! The Lions weren’t quite the force they had previously been when they entered round seven of 2006 with a 1-5 record opposed to the Hawks who were 4-2. ‘Browny’ stood tall at Carrara, leading his team to a comprehensive 40-point victory courtesy of eight goals, 25 possessions and 16 marks. He was far and away the best player on the ground.
5. AARON NAUGHTON
WESTERN BULLDOGS v RICHMOND, 2019
u A more recent star showing
came via the promising Western Bulldogs youngster just 12 months ago. Naughton was only one shy of Wayne Carey’s record of 10 contested marks when he simply manhandled Richmond’s defence at Marvel Stadium. He finished with 14 marks, five goals (it could easily have been seven or eight) and his first lot of maximum Brownlow votes in his side’s 47-point win. The Tigers would go on to win the flag which lends further substance to the stunning aerial display. ANDREW SLEVISON
homecoming for South Australian-born John Platten in this round 26 years ago. In front of 44,403 fans at Football Park, Platten played one of his greatest games for Hawthorn. The Hawk in No. 44 with the long, curly hair gathered 37 disposals and kicked a career-high six goals as his team thrashed the Crows by 97 points. Nicknamed ‘Rat’, Platten was renowned as one of the best rovers in the 1980s and ’90s. He played 113 games and kicked 262 goals with SANFL club Central District between 1981-85 before joining Hawthorn in 1986. Platten, 57, is one of three players to win the Magarey and Brownlow Medals – the others are Malcolm Blight and Nathan Buckley. At Hawthorn, he was a four-time premiership player and won the club best and fairest twice. The six-time All-Australian is a member of the Australian Football and South Australian Halls of Fame and the Hawthorn Team of the Century.

u The surname of
TOPHER GRACE, VIC LE: There have been a few cases. Matches that have been delayed by more than a month or two, have been due to a world event, railway strike, bad weather etc. The most notable match to have been delayed the longest is the round two, 1903, Geelong v Carlton match at the SCG. Both teams were meant to have played against each other earlier in the season at Corio Oval, but unfortunately, due to a railway strike, the match had to be postponed to later in the season. It wasn’t until August 3 that they would play each other for the points, with the Cats’ skipper Henry Young leading his team to a 10-point victory. The 1923 Grand Final was played on October 20, after being postponed the week before, due to heavy rain and flooding. Essendon’s George Rawle made his debut at the age of 33, making him the oldest debutant in a final. More than a half of his teammates were under 170cm tall. Essendon superstar Greg Stockdale broke the record at the time for most goals kicked in a season with 68. The Bombers ran away with the match by 17 points. In the majority of the early years, the seasons would start later, due to cricket authorities having the right to use the grounds until the end of April. This year will always be remembered as the season that was halted, and there will be new records created in the near future.
NAME GAME
4 1 4
Carlton youngster Liam Stocker is Germanic in origin and seems to have been a nickname for someone who was stubborn or very determined, characteristics desirable in any player, especially the in-and-under midfielder the Blues hope Stocker will become. The old Germanic word stoc meant a hard-to-remove tree trunk and a stocker was one who lived near one or whose job was to remove it. Liam is the first of that surname to play senior football, although there have been players with connected names: e.g., Ron Stockman was a 1954 Bulldogs premiership player and Greg Stockdale a 106-game Bomber in the 1920s.
