EDITOR’S LETTER
etter days appear to be ahead. That’s been the general consensus out of both Parliament and AFL House in the past week, which has seen the focus from Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison shift from purely saving lives in the formative months of the crisis to looking ahead and providing a framework for our lives to return to some form of normality. The road map back for sport more specifically is a lot clearer too, with last Friday’s national cabinet meeting seeing a document released from the Australian Institute of Sport providing guidance for how both professional and community sport can return in the coming weeks. The irony from the past week is for all the talk about players having to spend up to 20 weeks in strict quarantine hubs in order to complete the season, the likelihood of that happening is decreasing by the day. Two of the game’s most respected coaches provided a healthy dose
of perspective as AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan prepares to announce the resumption of the season in the coming days. Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley said it was vital for the League to weigh up whether any prospect of quarantine hubs was worth it, raising concerns for the mental health of players who would be separated from their families under the worst-case scenario presented last week. “It would be incredibly difficult and I don’t know if it is the right thing to ask people to be honest,” Buckley told SEN’s Whateley. “It’s not something we would have ever thought that we would be confronted with. “It’s definitely not something you would choose and it may well get to the stage where the leadership of the game needs to work out whether getting a season away in 2020 or asking our people to expose themselves to what has been presented as a worst-case scenario is actually worth it or which one is going to cost us more. “The numbers are easy to work out. You can measure a profit and loss quite easily. The emotional and mental toll and cost is a lot harder to settle on.” It’s easy to get caught up in seeing the current crisis through a footy lens and Brisbane coach Chris Fagan put the current heath crisis in proper perspective.
u It’s not even the middle of the
year but the next few days and weeks will feel like Christmas for football fans craving the return of the 2020 season. As Laurence Rosen has outlined above, AFL CEO Gillon McLachlan will emerge from his football war cabinet to announce a revamped fixture that will take in 17 more rounds and four weeks of finals.
You can feel the wheels starting to turn again. Players who headed back to their home states during the lockdown are now reporting back to their clubs and many have commenced their 14-day isolation period. Training will ramp up in the next few weeks with players given the green light to train in larger groups.

A mid-to-late June start appears the favoured scenario and a Grand Final date of October 29 is also looking the preferred option.

It’s short-term, we’re not going to jail, we’re not going to die, we’re not going to war. “It will end, we will get back to normal, it’s just going to take a little bit of sacrifice for a while. “I spent yesterday after Neale’s text thinking about all the great things that footy’s done for me and I couldn’t be any more grateful to the game for the all the opportunities I’ve had. “What we need to do is actually suck it up and do what’s best for the game. That’s my attitude towards it and the majority of the players.” It’s only a matter of weeks rather than months until footy is back,

ick Haynes has established himself as a crucial component of the GWS Giants’ backline. But the Victorian’s path to the big time was anything but conventional. “Long story short: I quit footy when I was 13 for four years and then came back as a 17-year-old just for a bit of fun,” Haynes told SEN’s Dwayne’s World. “I played a year of under-18s at Frankston Bombers and then senior footy the year after that and then got invited down to the (Dandenong) Stingrays as a 19-year-old.” Before he was selected by the Giants with pick No. 7 in the 2011 NAB AFL Draft, Haynes was an apprentice electrician on a modest weekly wage. It has made him appreciate the privileged position he now finds himself in. “The footy club had a sparky apprenticeship open up and it

albeit behind closed doors and in a different form that we’re used to. There’s genuine cause for optimism as players resume training and the League prepares to formally reveal a formal return to play date and fixture. The AFL remains committed to completing the season by the end of October. Footy isn’t too far away and that’s something to get genuinely excited about, even amid the current crisis gripping the world. really taught me how to maximise my money because I wasn’t on much,” Haynes said. “I had to pay my mum for the car that she gave me, I had to get up early and then go to footy training after work. “I was only on $7.20 an hour as a sparky. I was definitely appreciative when I got to an AFL club.” Lifting the draft age to 19 is something a well-rounded Haynes strongly recommends as debate rages as to whether it should be raised. “I thought when I got to the Giants it held me in good stead of moving out of home, looking after myself, paying the bills, saving my money, working hard and not taking things for granted,” he added. “Personally, I always thought 19 should be the draft age.” A big advocate of mental health, the 27-year-old is a Headspace ambassador and is taking part in the fourth edition of the ‘Push-Up Challenge’ that starts on May 11. “It’s a total of 3046 push-ups over 21 days,” Haynes said. “The 3046 push-ups represents the amount of Australians that unfortunately committed suicide in 2018. It’s a great charity and a great opportunity to donate.”
Haynes, one of the competition’s best intercept defenders, has played 129 games for the Gaints and represented Victoria in the bushfire relief match in February. COMMUNITY CHALLENGE: Nick Haynes is an ambassador for Headspace and is encouraging people of all ages to join in the Push-Up Challenge.

t has never been harder to rank the top 10 players in the AFLW competition. An influx of young talent through the draft coupled with longer stints in AFL standard environments sees the competition improving out of sight year on year. When you then consider the emergence of young stars with existing players in their prime and the older guard who haven’t yet slowed down and you have a depth that makes 14 teams possible. The likes of Erin Phillips (whose 2020 was ruined by injury), Emma Kearney, Karen Paxman, Jess Duffin, Daisy Pearce, Kate Lutkins and more have been among the best players in the game since before AFLW existed and remain so now, despite being in their 30s. This gives the league an incredibly strong top 30 and makes the task of narrowing it down to 10 bloody difficult.
1. ERIN PHILLIPS
ADELAIDE CROWS
u Phillips has had two seasons of dominance beyond anything we have seen at AFL level … and two seasons ruined by injury. Unfortunately, 2020 was one of those years derailed following her torn ACL in the 2019 Grand Final. Despite only playing two games this season – and doing so clearly lacking match fitness – she remains on top of the hill.
She remains on top of the hill NIC NEGREPONTIS RANKS ERIN PHILLIPS AT NO. 1
that she had moved from one of the game’s best forwards to potentially the game’s best midfielder. The 26-year-old jumped from 13 touches a game to 20, 4.7 tackles, 4.6 score involvements, 4.6 marks, 4.1 inside 50s and still managed to kick eight goals from the midfield. Garner had already proven herself as a forward, making the All-Australian team.
3. EMMA KEARNEY
NORTH MELBOURNE
u If you had to pick one player in the entire competition to have the ball in space on the wing, you would probably take Kearney first. She has made a name for herself as an incredibly damaging offensive midfielder, averaging 21 disposals and ranking fourth for metres gained thanks to her speed and love of a bounce. The 2020 All-Australian vice-captain was given a different role with the Roos in 2020 because of their midfield depth and was allowed to float forward at times and cause havoc for opposition defenders.
4. KAREN PAXMAN
2. JASMINE GARNER
MELBOURNE
u Garner made the move from the forward line into the midfield in 2020 and it was immediately clear
u If there was an award for most consistently performing player since day one of season one, Paxman would be the clear winner. She has

made the All-Australian team in all four seasons, one of only two players to do so – the other is Emma Kearney. She averaged 21 disposals a game, ranked fourth in the competition, she was in the top 10 for metres gained and remains comfortably the No. 1 clearance player in the game.
5. MADISON PRESPAKIS
CARLTON
u Only two players in AFLW history have gathered 20 disposals and booted a goal in six different games – Erin Phillips, of course, and Prespakis. It’s worth remembering that the latter has only actually played 16 games and is still a teenager. Prespakis is already an elite midfielder thanks to her strength in contested situations, her ball-use and her ability to carry a midfield group on her shoulders. Prespakis was crowned the 2020 AFLW Best and Fairest; she is also already a two-time Carlton best and fairest, AFLPA MVP runner-up, a two-time All-Australian and the 2019 NAB AFLW Rising Star winner. AFL.com.au AFL RECORD 7
ONE WEEK at a TIME 6. JAIMEE LAMBERT
COLLINGWOOD
u Lambert is another underrated player who was a top 10 midfielder coming into the season. Her strength, toughness and disposal efficiency always separated her from the pack, but Lambert went to another level in 2020 by simply winning more of the ball. The 27-year-old bumped her disposals a game from 16 to 22 and was helped tremendously by the addition of Davey and Sharni Layton’s improvement in the ruck.
7. CHELSEA RANDALL
ADELAIDE CROWS
u Randall slips a few spots down the list, simply because we didn’t see her in 2020. The Crows captain tore her ACL in the pre-season, a devastating blow for a superstar at the peak of her game. Randall was an All-Australian in all three previous seasons, with her intercept marking and ball-use coming out of defence a key reason why.
THE BEST: Kate Lutkins (left) was the No. 1 defender in 2020 while Isabel Huntington was the NAB AFLW Rising Star winner.
8. KATE LUTKINS
BRISBANE LIONS
u Forever the most underrated player in the competition, Lutkins was the best defender in AFLW in 2020. The 31-year-old is averaging less of the ball than in previous years, but her impact on games is greater, even if it doesn’t necessarily show up on the stat sheet.
Eagle adjusts in flight LAURENCE ROSEN
S
tar West Coast ruckman Nic Naitanui believes recent changes to the third man up rule has revolutionised the way the position is played. Ahead of the 2017 season, players were banned from interfering with any ruck contest, allowing the two competing ruckmen more time to win the ball at a stoppage.

Huntington finally got her chance to shine
9. CHLOE MOLLOY
u After two years heavily interrupted by injuries, Huntington
finally got her chance to shine in 2020. Moving her into defence seemed a questionable move going into the season, but her contested marking and decision-making by foot turned her into a real asset for the Dogs – even if she might be more valuable as a forward. The No. 1 pick in the 2017 NAB AFLW Draft led the competition for marks, intercept possessions and contested marks a game and was a wall across half-back all season. She was rewarded with a spot in the All-Australian team, the NAB AFLW Rising Star and her club’s best and fairest.
Naitanui, who turned 30 this week, admits he now feels he’s got more freedom to “do what we want” around ruck contests. “During my time being on and off (through injury), there’s been a few rules changes,” he told SEN Breakfast. “Dean Cox actually called me a couple of weeks ago and was getting into me saying he would’ve played a lot more footy if there was no third man up. “What teams used to do – especially if you played two ruckmen – you’d jump into blokes and (someone else) would come over the top which someone wrestles.
“We’ve got a bit more leverage to do what we want and I reckon ruckmen are becoming a bit more athletic and there’s not as much physical and wrestling each other around like Brendon Lade and Dean Cox used to do back in the day.” West Coast has plenty of ruck options, including Nathan Vardy and Tom Hickey who coach Adam Simpson has used to complement Naitanui’s ability to win the ball out of the centre. Naitanui believes that the modern game means clubs can’t afford to play multiple ruckman in the one team without the ability for them to drift forward and provide a marking option.
COLLINGWOOD
u Molloy is in a similar boat to Isabel Huntington, returning from a foot injury that saw her miss the 2019 season. She quickly reminded everyone why she was so highly rated coming out of the junior pathways. She made the All-Australian team in her first season as a defender, but finished 2020 playing as a key forward.

oad the team up with collegiate boys, win the toss and kick with the wind. That was St Kilda’s game-plan for round 12 of the 1901 VFL season, with the hapless Saints, the serial whipping boys of the competition’s early years, trying to secure just their second League win. Weekly Melbourne paper The Sportsman wrote that season that “the Saints are a fine team for the improvement of averages”, and that, against another team but Carlton, there was no doubt they would lose. They were undermanned and outmuscled by the bigger Blues in their round five clash at Princes Park in May. With key inclusions ahead of the return fixture at the Junction Oval on July 13, the Saints could smell blood. One of those inclusions was Edward ‘Ted’ Hall, also known as ‘Joker’, a man who was more than due for a win. Leading into the clash, Hall had played 62 League games without tasting victory, a record unlikely to be broken. A blacksmith by trade, Hall was born in Windermere, a small farming town near Ballarat, on February 8, 1876, to Anglican parents John and Ellen. According to The Ballarat Star, his father took a local miscreant to court for shooting and killing a hare on the family farm in 1875 and received damages. Hall probably enjoyed a footballing apprenticeship in the strong leagues in the region, but the details remain undiscovered. He first appears in the Melbourne papers in 1895, the same year his parents relocated to Boolarra, near Morwell. There was waning interest in the game in Victoria, brought on by recession and

depression, when Hall started his first season in the city with Marlton in the South Suburban Association. They lost just once in 15 matches, claiming a premiership as Hall affirmed his credentials. The Prahran Chronicle celebrated the team for its effort, lack of selfishness and accurate goalkicking, and praised Hall for his 28 goals, and for his “splendid” high marking. The planned festivities, due to take place on Chapel St, were put on hold when the man charged with delivering the medals to the players stole them instead. A court case ensued, and the players finally received their just desserts by the end of November. Local clubs, including St Kilda, quickly began recruiting Marlton’s standouts. Hall was poached by Windsor but played only half a season for the club before he arrived at the Saints to play in the VFA. He kicked three goals on debut against Richmond in a 33-point win that did little to foreshadow the losing streak to come. Nine goals in 10 games for the Saints, who secured four wins in 1896, meant that Hall was still with the club

when Victorian football changed forever with the formation of the VFL in 1897. In the new League’s opening season, the Saints were widely criticised for lacking discipline and fitness, and for not taking the game seriously enough. They employed Hall at both ends of the ground, and he was praised
on occasion in the papers for the forward play and high marking that landed him at St Kilda in the first place. The Saints remained winless in 1898 and 1899, barely coming close. To start 1900, Hall made the fateful decision to turn his hand umpiring. That meant he was absent when the Saints defied expectations to claim their first win, against Melbourne, in round two. The win is one of only three in League history to be awarded via protest. The Demons were the beneficiaries of a mark taken after the three-quarter time siren, which led to an erroneous behind. Hall spent the round umpiring his first League match, between Collingwood and Geelong, making him the second person to umpire and play in the VFL. According to The Australasian, he “scarcely succeeded in rising to the occasion” with whistle in hand. He never umpired in the League again and returned to the St Kilda line-up three weeks later. The 1900 season continued without a win, and the Saints started 1901 with 11 more losses. They arrived at the Junction Oval to play the Blues knowing the match was their best chance to grab an elusive win – the team’s second, and Hall’s first. A chilly winter breeze blowing in off Port Phillip Bay helped the Saints to surge to a big lead in the first term. They ran riot, kicking 6.3 to Carlton’s 0.2. Though they failed to kick a major for the next two quarters, they stopped the Blues mounting any sort of a comeback by turning the game into a slog. A rough final term provided a test for umpire Ivo Crapp, who, despite his name, fared far better than Hall with the whistle. Crapp was one of the VFL’s best umpires and is in the Australian Football Hall of Fame. The Saints ultimately won by three goals. The Argus summed it up best, running their report under the headline “After Many Days”. According to The Age, players and supporters celebrated like they’d won the flag, and upon trying to recall their last victory,
all comers accepted that “somewhere back in the last century” was “near enough” to the truth. Both papers named Hall in their best for the day. He went on to play 10 more games for the Saints, but that winter day at the Junction Oval remains his only VFL win. He played his final game for the tricolours against Essendon in 1902, finishing with one win from 73 games for a win percentage of 1.37 per cent, the worst ratio for anyone who has played more than 50 VFL/AFL games. There was no grand send-off – the game is remembered only because Essendon champion Albert Thurgood copped a three-match suspension for striking several St Kilda players during a scrimmage. In 1903, Hall’s footballing fortunes significantly improved when he moved to Richmond, the reigning premiers in the VFA. The team was stoned by local youths when they played away to Brunswick, but on the field, things were far smoother. The Tigers won 16 games and lost two on their way to the minor premiership. From his single season at Richmond, two photos arose of Hall. He’s third from the left in the back row of their team photo, arms crossed, his narrow face

staring the camera down over the top of a sporting moustache. In the other, his back is to the camera as he leaps over the top of his Prahran opponent to claim one of those trademark high marks. The Tigers failed to win the flag that season, losing what was the first grand final in the VFA at the East Melbourne Cricket Ground to second-placed North Melbourne. The game was slammed for its roughness in The Australasian, which noted that Hall, playing forward, did everything in his power to prevent Richmond from losing the premiership. He finished his final season of football with 13 goals in 15 matches, at which point his luck took a far more serious turn. Though Melbourne’s standards of hygiene rose considerably with the installation of a sewerage system in 1897, Hall caught acute phthisis pulmonalis, a tuberculosis of the lungs, late in 1903. He passed away at Doctor Bird’s Private Hospital in Melbourne on December 31, 1903. He is buried in Boolarra, under a large oak tree, next to his parents, and his younger brother, Morton, who all outlived him. In the next grave lies his nephew, ‘Teddy’, named for an uncle he never met.

rowing up as a kid in country NSW with a close-knit family, my Pop was influential and someone I have always admired. A family man with a strong set of values that are unwavering. He has many interests including cycling, gardening and has always been highly fascinated with the World Wars. He was a young teenager when World War II exploded. Growing up, his influence created my fascination with war and the reason for war. I have great appreciation for everyone who has served Australia but also other nations, understanding the ultimate sacrifice that many of them make. My mum and dad always made sure that my sisters and I understood the importance of Anzac Day.
We sat on the front porch and took in the morning. I mentioned to Candice that it is genuinely the first time I have felt lucky to be Australian. Previously I have taken this for granted but to see the way we have reacted to this crisis has been heart-warming. I know post this crisis there will be debate about what could have been done better but the reaction of communities to helping each other, governments and business coming together for humanity will live on for a long time.
Anzac spirit still alive
On a side note, we were meant to play today. This would have been the second time in my career we would have played on Anzac Day. This was a game I was very much looking forward to and I feel a sense of jealousy when I see Collingwood and Essendon play annually.

Candice and I woke at 5.50am to pay our respects in our driveway on a perfect autumn morning. A neighbour had prepared speakers to broadcast the Last Post which was unbeknown to us but was a moving touch to start the morning.

u I woke this morning to watch Offsiders (ABC sports program) with Craig Bellamy, Damien Hardwick, Ange Postecoglou and Lisa Alexander. It was interesting hearing to the different perspectives of various coaches who are associated with a cross-section of sports. It was most interesting listening to both international coaches about the optimal time to spend in a training camp, anticipating the AFL hubs model. Postecoglou and Alexander both mentioned that 10 days to three weeks is a maximum amount of time before all in the camp need time to relax and recharge away from camp confines. All this with speculation around the AFL hubs concept. Sunday calls for a lamb roast. I also catch up with friends over Zoom anticipating the reopening of our golf course.
MONDAY, APRIL 27 (DAY 36) u Today was one of those isolation days that I am sure we have all had. A casual walk to Barton café to get a morning coffee. Hours spent in the kitchen and cleaning the house. The best was saved until last, with the introduction of season two of After Life with Ricky Gervais. A great show that always provides a laugh in our house.
TUESDAY, APRIL 28 (DAY 37) u I mentioned a few weeks ago that mountain bike riding was once a hobby of mine and something that I had missed while playing AFL. I have been doing plenty of it since isolation has started and today went for a ride with James Frawley. He certainly has zero fear when on his bike, but I feel that was to his detriment, as he ended up on the ground a handful of times.
He has been a school principal for many years and values the role that teachers play in all our lives. To him it is of the upmost importance to provide all children, regardless of their individual circumstances, the right to a solid education and compassionate role models. Dad always brings the entertainment to our family catch-ups; his roles include playing Santa and the Easter Bunny. He’s always encouraging laughter and a sense of fun in everything we do. His love for his own children is matched by his love for his nieces and nephews. As much as my mother and I are not phone people, Dad will spend hours each day staying in contact with people from all walks of life. Loudspeaker is possibly his best friend, much to our displeasure!
This afternoon we connected to the AFLPA Zoom call, informing players where the AFL is at in regards to getting the season restarted. It has since been well publicised how the meeting unfolded. The disappointing element is that it is a private meeting and to have dialogue released almost immediately was extremely disappointing. Like any situation regarding individuals’ lives and families, people need time to process. It was certainly a shock to most players that being sold a possible 21 weeks in a hub was highly feasible and quite rightly players had questions. As I finish this entry off, it seems highly unlikely that this will occur as states are now easing restrictions and hopefully for the AFL, coaches, players and support staff a fly in, fly out model is possible.
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 29 (DAY 38) u Celebrating a birthday in isolation has been difficult. Today though, I went for an early morning kick with Liam Shiels on the day of his 29th birthday. Fair to say that his excitement levels were not through the roof, it was just another day. Five days prior ex-teammate Taylor Duryea celebrated his birthday. Usually the customary thing to do is share a meal or drink but for Taylor’s we resorted to baking some cookies and dropping them at his front door.
THURSDAY, APRIL 30 (DAY 39)
Happy birthday Santa Dad I consider myself fortunate to have inherited many of these special qualities. I certainly would not have been playing AFL football without the passion and energy that I possess. He will continue to shape many lives in a positive way and to that I am very proud to be his son. Happy birthday Dad!
FRIDAY, MAY 1 (DAY 40) u Although we were unable to celebrate Liam’s 29th birthday in person with everyone, his fiancée Claire organised a very entertaining Zoom catch-up with a group of us. It will be interesting in the future to see how much of the behaviours we learn in isolation will integrate into our post-coronavirus lives. I still think I’ll end up at the pub or a nice restaurant for birthdays though!
u As I explained earlier, my Pop was influential and the other influential man in my life is my Dad. He turns 60 today. Dad has followed in the footsteps of his father with a strong moral compass. He has an energy and passion that is hard to find. His obsessions include sport but the two most important elements to him that I see are family and education.

A SHOW OF POWER
JIANGWAN SPORTS CENTRE, MAY 14, 2017
u Port Adelaide was determined to make
a statement on its first foray into China and did it in emphatic fashion with a 72-point demolition job on the Gold Coast Suns this time three years ago. The Power virtually put an end to the contest with a six-goal second quarter, which included a Goal of the Year contender from Justin Westhoff. But they had winners all over the field, ranging from medal winner Brad Ebert to powerhouse forward Charlie Dixon, whose 17 disposals included nine contested possessions. Dixon also kicked two of his side’s 16 goals, and the expression on his face tells a thousand words about how gratifying his contribution was. PHOTO: MICHAEL WILLSON/AFL PHOTOS @MICHAELCWILLSON

DOGGED DUO MCG, MAY 15, 2016 u Four years ago this clash between
the Western Bulldogs and Melbourne proved a niggly affair that was inevitably decided at the coalface. The Bulldogs prevailed because of their dominance in contested clearances and fierce tackling with several players prominent. Two of the chief protagonists were Bulldog Tom Liberatore and Demon Jack Viney. Both were never far from the action, with Viney often being ‘collared’ by Liberatore (with help from Caleb Daniel on this occasion) and vice-versa. Liberatore equalled the AFL/VFL record of 19 tackles held by Sydney’s Jude Bolton and North Melbourne’s Jack Ziebell, but Viney was not far behind with 16. And as we know, 2016 turned out to be the year of the Dogs. PHOTO: MICHAEL WILLSON/AFL PHOTOS @MICHAELCWILLSON

e exist to win premierships”. This is the Port Adelaide Football Club’s mantra (along with the recent demand to “make our community proud”). In 150 years since the club’s foundation on May 12, 1870, such lofty goals have been met by a club that advocates the bar being repeatedly lifted. There also is a Hall of Fame roll call of grand achievements by Port Adelaide players, coaches and administrators. There is a fair bit of pride for the Port Adelaide faithful to savour from this unrivaled record of success that allowed the SANFL’s oldest club to become the only non-Victorian club to rise from suburbia to the national AFL. But there has not always been champagne flowing at Port Adelaide. In 1896, the club was on its knees, both financially and football wise after it finished last for the first time. A severe economic depression forced players to leave the club and South Australia to find work in other Australian colonies. A year later, Port Adelaide had its third SAFA premiership – all on the

back of restoring pride to the team’s task of winning. History has repeated in recent years – from the threat of being expelled from the SANFL in 1990 for breaking ranks to chase an AFL licence to the “dark chapter” from 2008-12 when Port Adelaide’s existence in any league was threatened by financial pressure and disappointing results on the field. Pride also was waning in the frustrated fan base that at times struggled with the greater demands to achieve success in the AFL when compared with the SANFL. Their pain was noted with the terraces emptying to be covered by large tarps at Football Park. Port Adelaide’s rebound since the new era began with new leadership on and off the field at the end of 2012 – with David Koch as chairman and Ken Hinkley and Travis Boak as coach and captain respectively. The revival on the scoreboard and on the balance sheet highlights the “never say die” spirit that made the club a feared opponent for decades.

15 DECADES OF POWERFUL ACHIEVEMENT 1870 s
Port Adelaide Football Club was formally established on May 12, 1870 with John Hart jnr, the son of the state’s 10th Premier, appointed as president. The club played its first competitive home game against Young Australian on the Hart’s family estate, Buck’s Flat at Glanville, on August 20, 1870. Port Adelaide became a founding member of the SA Football Association in April, 1877 and remains the oldest, long-running league club in SA football history.

football return to a $535 million redeveloped Adelaide Oval in 2014 and taking AFL premiership matches to Shanghai in China underline how Port Adelaide aims high even when it is on the canvas (with many cheering for a knockout blow). “Port Adelaide has always been an innovator,” says Koch. “Whether it’s in the way we play footy or build the organisation off the field, we’ve never been afraid to think outside the square or challenge traditional thinking. It’s part of our DNA.” “Our China strategy is just another example of that,” adds Koch, who restocked Port Adelaide’s damaged financials by looking beyond the crowded Australian market and strategically well past the boundaries of the club’s 5015 postcode.
“Across our 150-year history that eagerness to be innovative has consistently had only one primary focus – it must help us win premierships. We exist to win premierships.” It all began with three men – John Albert Rann, George Henry Ireland and Richard William John Leicester, three community leaders – meeting at North Parade, Port Adelaide on April 20, 1870 to consider how the young men at the township around the busy docks could be part of a social club. There also was this new game from Melbourne, Australian Football, that was gaining relevance after making its start in Adelaide in 1861. A fortnight later, Rann, the president of the Port Adelaide Cricket Club, had football added to the cricket

Port Adelaide won its first premiership – wearing magenta and blue and with Victorian import Richard Turpenny as captain – in 1884. The club moved from Glanville to Alberton Oval to establish its spiritual home from 1880. It played on MCG – for the first time – in July, 1883 against Melbourne.

Started the decade with the club’s second SAFA premiership – and first of four Champions of Australia titles by beating Victorian premier South Melbourne at Adelaide Oval.

Port Adelaide responded with the flag in 1903, followed by titles in 1906 and 1910 and Grand Final appearances in 1904, 1905, 1907 and 1909. It also claimed the Champions of Australia title by beating Collingwood – while wearing all-black to avoid a jumper clash – in 1910.

Port Adelaide’s greatest season unfolded in 1914 with the “Invincibles” – unbeaten in all SAFL games – victorious in the Champions of Australia clash with VFL premier Carlton and closed the season defying the SAFL all-star line-up.

club’s agenda. Within months, it was just the Port Adelaide Football Club, playing in blue and white hoops and with a band accompanying the team to matches. Less than a century later, after winning its 23rd SANFL premiership in the epic 1965 Grand Final before a stillstanding record 62,543 crowd at Adelaide Oval, Port Adelaide was – and remains – SA’s most-successful league football club, one that commanded its place on a national stage well before the AFL came calling. Era after era Port Adelaide delivered premierships – and pride – to its people. Before World War I, with the famous change to black and white bars in 1902,

Port Adelaide dominated SA football to become the “Invincibles” with a perfect season in 1914. The club beat all of its six SAFL rivals twice, dominated the finals series allowing North Adelaide to score just one goal in the Grand Final, trounced VFL premier Collingwood to win its fourth Champions of Australia title and closed the season by beating the best of the rest in a state combined side. In the demanding 1930s, the decade that is remembered for eventual war hero Bob Quinn MM rowing across the Port River to train at his father’s club, Port Adelaide ruled again, particularly with six consecutive SANFL grand finals from 1934.
Then it was the “Golden Era” with six consecutive flags from 1954 as Port Adelaide had a once-in-a-lifetime master with Fos Williams. From his arrival from West Adelaide in 1950 – after Port Adelaide could not secure a clearance for South Adelaide and Richmond champion Jim Deane – the club never ranked lower than third until missing the finals in 1969. And in the 1990s, when Port Adelaide was threatened with expulsion from the SANFL for seeking an AFL licence in 1990, the club did far more than plan for a grand entry to the big league in 1997; it also continued to honour its state league traditions with seven SANFL flags, some won while
Port Adelaide resumed from the war recess in SA league football with a premiership in 1921 but the pressing need was to rebuild a team deprived of its pre-war heroes. By 1928, so promising was the club’s future – that included the 1928 flag – that the SA Football Budget ran a cartoon with every SANFL rival surrounding Port Adelaide to pay homage to “The Master”.
1930 s
Another decade of dominance – grand finalist in 1930 and then from 1934, six consecutive play-offs for the flag with premierships in 1936, 1937 and 1939. The hero of the decade was rover and captain-coach Bob Quinn, who was awarded the Magarey Medal in 1938 (after being the runner-up the season before) –

working against heavy restrictions from the SANFL that ordered the club could not have its AFL and SANFL teams linked. Port Adelaide’s Never Tear Us Apart anthem sung by the fans before the start of home games at Adelaide Oval is inspired by the reunification of the club – as “One Club” – in 2010-11. The crowning moment of Port Adelaide’s insatiable ambition was the 2004 AFL premiership – won under the tutelage of Fos Williams’ son Mark – after all the agony from the 1990 storm to the choking episodes in the 2001-03 final series. Fos Williams had created the great divide in SA football by making Port Adelaide so dominant – the “them versus us” – divide that loomed large on the first SA derby, the Showdown, won by Port Adelaide against the Adelaide Crows on April 20, 1997. Club legend Geof Motley, an Australian Football Hall of Famer, notes the power of the diehard supporters drove Port Adelaide to greatness from the 1950s. “The major driving force was our fans,” Motley, the 1964 Magarey medallist, recalls of how the Port Adelaide players took to the field in the 1950s and 1960s. “They were the only ones we had in our corner – and they were the only ones we wanted with us. They were there at the start. They were there to the end. And the greatest gift we could give them was a premiership.” But it is not always champagne at Alberton. The club’s revival – and determination to thrive rather than just survive – after the dark chapter of 2008-12 is true to Port Adelaide defying every eager prediction of doom cast against the club. It was darkest, however, before the dawn of the Koch-Hinkley era that began in October, 2012. For Warren Tredrea, Port Adelaide’s first AFL premiership captain, the heavy curtain of doom appeared to be falling on the club on August 6, 2011. He stepped out of a radio commentary box at

and in 1945, after returning with serious wounds from war service that was recognised with the Military Medal for “leadership, courage and devotion” in Tobruk in north Africa in 1941.
1940 s
After playing in all three war-time grand finals with merger partner West Torrens, winning the 1942 title, Port Adelaide took issue with missing finals in consecutive seasons in 1948 and 1949 – and decided to turn to an outsider to change the club’s destiny.
1950s
Fos Williams (above) arrived from West Adelaide to create the new Port Adelaide Football Club that enhanced the old traditions built on premiership success. He delivered as captain-coach a drought-breaking premiership (12 years) in 1951 – and then a “Golden Era” of success including the first five of the “Six in a Row” flags from 1954. Geof Motley completed the run in 1959.
1960s
WINNING WAYS: Port certainly knows how to win and celebrate premierships – Geof Motley and teammates with the 1965 cup (top); an incredible six in a row was achieved in 1959 (middle); Warren Tredrea and Mark Williams hold the club’s first AFL premiership cup aloft in 2004.
After stepping away at the end of the 1958 season, Williams returned as a non-playing coach in 1962. From 1953-58 (as playing coach) and 1962-68 (as coach), Williams directed Port Adelaide to 13 consecutive grand finals for eight titles.
1970s
John Cahill took the coaching baton from Fos Williams at the end of 1973 – and created a new era of success, ending a 12-year premiership drought (that included six losing grand finals) in 1977 before setting up three consecutive flags from 1979.
1980s
AFL RECORD PORT ADELAIDE CELEBRATES 150 YEARS
After rewriting almost every record in SA league football in 1980 – when Russell Ebert claimed his fourth Magarey Medal and Tim Evans set the season goalkicking count at 146 goals – Port Adelaide finished the decade with four flags ... and an eye to national glory.
1990s
In 1990, Port Adelaide broke ranks to sign a heads of agreement to join the AFL in 1991 – a move stopped with a Supreme Court injunction. The club ultimately claimed an AFL licence in December, 1994 and joined the national league for play in 1997, a season remembered for winning the first Showdown against Adelaide.
Football Park at three-quarter time fearing his family football club was on the edge ... and ready to fall. After 141 years of defiance and grand achievements, the Port Adelaide Football Club was “bankrupt” in every sense. On and off the field, the club was in crisis after 14 years in the AFL. That night, Port Adelaide was 98 points behind Collingwood (and there were still another 40 points to be hammered on to that deficit in the last term). It was not just the scoreboard that was troubling Tredrea, Port Adelaide’s greatest goalkicker in AFL company. There was much more to worry him – and other souls who had bled for Port Adelaide. Only 21,863 had turned up at Football Park in Adelaide’s western suburbs. It was Saturday night, the much-preferred timeslot for Port Adelaide fans. And this was one of the AFL’s big drawcard opponents that every club wants to host for the crowds and television ratings matches against Collingwood generate. It remains the smallest gathering to a Port Adelaide-Collingwood game, anywhere, anytime. So few had bothered to be at the decaying West Lakes arena to salute Tredrea’s 2004 AFL premiership teammate Chad Cornes for his 239th and last

Tredrea rang then AFL media manager Patrick Keane wanting AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou’s private telephone number. He was to implore to the League’s boss that something had to be done at Alberton to save Port Adelaide from making a mockery of its century old traditions – and worse. “It was pathetic,” Tredrea recalls. “And it was hard to watch as a former player. “I knew the club had some issues financially and for me, it was just rock bottom.” Port Adelaide has made it to a grand 150th anniversary, albeit with the party on hold. But if history offers any lesson on Port Adelaide, it is never dismiss a club that thrives on challenges – and exists to win premierships. This is what makes Port Adelaide’s community proudest of all.

Glory on the national stage – two pre-season titles (2001 and 2002), three consecutive McClelland trophies as minor premier (2002, 2003 and 2004) and the breakthrough 2004 AFL premiership after just eight seasons of national competition – and with the burden of the “chokers” tag with collapses in the 2001-03 finals series.
2010s
Port Adelaide’s “dark chapter” – after losing the 2007 AFL Grand Final to Geelong by a record margin of 119 points – was marked with financial crises, poor crowds at home and questions on the club’s future. From 2013, under a new regime led by president David Koch, Port Adelaide has lived to a Never Tear Us Apart theme with grand ambition – including a return to Adelaide Oval and games in Shanghai.

o often we see the career of a highly talented player cut short. Whether it be injuries, bad luck, lack of opportunity or other circumstances, there are certain players we wished we got to see more of.

Richmond fans still talk glowingly about Mark Coughlan, who was good enough to win a best and fairest at Punt Rd in 2003, but only managed 92 games.
THE AFL RECORD TEAM DELVED INTO THE RECENT HISTORY BOOKS TO SEE WHICH PLAYER FROM YOUR CLUB WAS STIFF NOT TO REACH 100 GAMES. Injuries seem to be the common thread here although some, such as Boyd, disappeared from the AFL scene through their own choosing.

Mark Coughlan
CAREER: 2001-09 GAMES: 92
u Coughlan was a midfielder who
possessed both smooth-moving and hard-nosed qualities. He was as comfortable cruising past for a handball receive as he was getting down and dirty under a pack. He had played just 21 games before his breakout season in 2003 which saw him claim Richmond’s best and fairest and poll 16 Brownlow votes. Coughlan’s 2004 was derailed by osteitis pubis before he returned to his best in 2005. From then on, however, it was all downhill as his career was completely ravaged by ACL and hamstring injuries. Tigers fans often bring up Coughlan and just how good he had been during his 92-game career and how much the club missed him in the aftermath. ANDREW SLEVISON

Nathan Freeman
CAREER: 2014-18 GAMES: 2
u Freeman decided to seek a
fresh start at St Kilda after two injury-ravaged years at Collingwood where he never played a senior game. A talented junior with blistering pace, Freeman hoped a move to the Saints in 2015 would ignite his career but had to wait until round 20, 2018 to finally make his AFL debut. The No. 10 pick in the 2013 NAB AFL Draft was delisted by St Kilda with just two games under his belt. Chronic soft tissue problems denied Freeman the chance to show his worth at senior level having watched 423 players debut before playing his first game. ALEX ZAIA

SYDNEY SWANS
Alex Johnson
CAREER: 2011-18 GAMES: 47
u Sydney had to make the difficult
decision to delist the premiership defender in 2018 following a wretched run with injury. The luckless ex-Swan ruptured his anterior cruciate ligament in his second game back since 2012 – an injury that ultimately dashed his unfilled AFL career. Johnson played 45 of his 47 games in 2011 and 2012 – including the 10-point Grand Final triumph over Hawthorn – and was ultra-consistent throughout Sydney’s premiership campaign. But five knee reconstructions and 12 surgeries cruelly dogged the now 28-year-old after a promising start to his AFL career. ALEX ZAIA

Troy Wilson
CAREER: 2001-03 GAMES: 37
u Wilson came to the Eagles as a
28-year-old after dominating the WAFL for years having only seriously got into footy in his early 20s. He kicked 40 goals in 18 games in his debut season in 2001,
which included a bag of seven in his third AFL game, and was West Coat’s leading goalkicker for the season. Wilson was even more dangerous in 2002, kicking 38 goals from 14 matches, but a string of collarbone, calf and hamstring issues restricted his output. Ultimately, Wilson’s body let him down in 2003 and his AFL career was over as quickly as it began. He finished with 83 majors from 37 outings. ANDREW SLEVISON
WESTERN BULLDOGS
Jack Redpath
CAREER: 2014-18 GAMES: 36
u Redpath never had a fair run at it,
but always delivered when given an opportunity by the Bulldogs. The key forward kicked 57 goals across 36 games between 2014 and 2018, but was unable to get his body right for long enough to lock down a spot in the team. Multiple serious knee injuries led to degenerative issues with his knee and forced the then 27-year-old to hang up the boots at a time where the Bulldogs were crying out for a key-position forward to build their team around.

MOSQUITO FLEET
C
arlton’s famed and feared Mosquito Fleet confounded many of David Parkin’s strict beliefs about the effect of partying on performance. Early in his first pre-season as Carlton coach before the 1981 season, Parkin observed that after each training session many of his players – his boisterous band of little men among them – gathered at a local watering hole. One night Parkin stormed into the pub and gave the boisterous Blues one of his famous vein-bulging barrages. “I’d heard the rumours and innuendo, but I can’t believe what I’m seeing,” Parkin thundered. “This is going to change!” The players’ solution, Parkin told the AFL Record with a chuckle, was to simply go to another pub. “They were as wild a bunch off the field as the game has ever seen,” he said. “But when it came to preparation and playing, I was amazed because I haven’t had a better, more committed group.” Told the Record would catch up with the Mosquito Fleet, Parkin gushed, “Oh well, just put some money over the bar and you’ll be in for a memorable afternoon.” So we followed the coach’s orders, arranging what proved to be a long lunch at the Emerald Hotel in South Melbourne, a haunt of some of the old Blues in question. The Mosquito Fleet – which was so instrumental in Carlton’s 1979 and 1981-82 premierships – had a full membership of about a dozen and we gathered the six mainstays. Rod Ashman is 60, both Wayne ‘The Dominator’ Johnston and Alex Marcou are 57, while Jimmy Buckley, Wayne Harmes and Ken ‘Bomba’ Sheldon are each 55. While reminiscing, they lived up to their collective nickname, buzzing with chatter and laughter and taking every opportunity to pester each other, albeit in a brotherly way, as they have done for 30-odd years. “Jeez, the mosquitoes have gotten bigger over the years, haven’t we,” Buckley observed. “‘Harmesy’, I feel a lot better now after seeing you!” Marcou’s arrival prompted the greeting: “Here’s the short, back and shoulders.” It is a dig at Marcou’s once-hirsute shoulders. He now waxes. Those shoulders are concealed by a shirt from the Mosquito fashion label that Marcou established (but has since sold). Sheldon: “It’s quite apt that it’s such a good-lookin’ shirt, because we were very fashionable.” In fact, Marcou and Johnston appeared in advertisements for Opal Male Fashion, one of which 38
AFL RECORD | afl.com.au
can be found on YouTube. The mere mention of “the Opal models” prompts giggles. Johnston: “That was a bad ad. I’ve never been more embarrassed in my life.” Conversation flowed. Some cracking stories can’t be retold here, but would be classic sportsmen’s night fare. They say they were first referred to as the Mosquito Fleet in a newspaper story in 1979, and came into being because Carlton lacked tall forwards, with Mark ‘Sellers’ Maclure the only regular key target in attack. Buckley: “Sellers dropped it most of the time but at least he’d make a contest so we’d get the crumbs.” Sheldon: “I reckon the nickname was coined because ‘Ashy’ (Ashman) was a real pest to the opposition and also to us. When he was roving, he’d only give us young apprentices a brief run on the ball.” Buckley: “We’d get five minutes if we were lucky.” Ashman: “Not that long.” Sheldon: “Well, five minutes between us – just to keep us interested.” Ashman: “We had it all worked out, didn’t we?”
MOSQUITO MAGIC:
Rated by former coach David Parkin as the equal of any running brigade he has seen, the Mosquito Fleet included 1979 Norm Smith medallist Wayne Harmes (above), Alex Marcou (left) and elder statesman Rod Ashman (top right).
They were as wild a bunch off the field as the game has seen COACH DAVID PARKIN
Buckley: “You had it worked out.” Parkin rates the Mosquito Fleet the equal of any running brigade he has seen. With the exception of Harmes, a backman who enjoyed the odd run in the centre, they split their time between the midfield and attack. All six represented Victoria and between them amassed 1121 games, 1249 goals and 16 top-five placings in the Blues’ best and fairest. Their greatest strength was their diverse skills. As a group they were brilliant, tough, explosive, versatile, calculating, supremely confident and utterly ruthless. Marcou: “We were all quick, we had fantastic ball skills, we were damaging and on our day we could all kick a bag of goals.” Ashman: “And they couldn’t tag all of us.” Harmes: “You knew that if you were having a dirty day, someone else here would just ignite.” Johnston: “And we didn’t have many dirty days.” Buckley: “If it wasn’t working, we didn’t wait for the coach; we switched things ourselves.” Harmes: “Most of our coaches gave us open slather to take risks.”
Buckley: “We could all do something inspirational to lift the team.” Of the six, only Johnston and Ashman were named in Carlton’s Team of the Century. It could have been so different – in 1979 Ashman applied for a clearance to North Melbourne and the Demons were keen on Johnston after he starred in the 1978 VFA Grand Final but needed a clearance from the Blues – so Carlton’s effort to retain them was significant. Their ex-teammates agree they probably would not have enjoyed as much success without them. Ashman missed the ’79 flag with injury, but the other five – who were aged just 19 to 21 – were pivotal performers in not only that Grand Final but the season as a whole. Harmes won the Norm Smith Medal and was runner-up in the best and fairest and Sheldon was the club’s leading goalkicker with 53, while Johnston, Marcou and Buckley also averaged around 20 touches and more than a goal a game. Harmes: “We were able to do that because at 14 or 15 most of us were filling in for open-age teams, which was one of the greatest learning curves.” Buckley: “When I was 15, I played on a murderer they’d let out of jail for the afternoon. I kicked five goals on him in a half and he said, ‘If you kick another one I’ll have you shot.’ That was a fair initiation.” Some Mosquito Fleet magic lifted Carlton to the 1979 flag, with Harmes famously chasing up his own errant kick to knock the ball back from the boundary to set up Sheldon’s match-winning goal. Harmes’ effort was the subject of a Toyota television commercial in 2006. Buckley: “Hold on. Harmesy got all the credit and all the money out
of it with his Toyota ad, but without my knock-on to him, his knock-on would never have happened.” There was indeed a knock-on effect. In a scramble near half-forward, Buckley had wisely tapped the ball into Harmes’ path. Then familiarity played a role. Sheldon: “If Harmesy was streaming downfield, there was no point leading. You generally had two options: go straight to the centre because he was going to kick a 70m goal, or run to the boundary line because he’d spray it, which he did. My anticipation has also been overlooked in Harmesy’s glory.” Harmes: “I had it all planned knowing that 30 years later Toyota was going to kick in.” Johnston acknowledged Harmes’ heroics but declared the game-changer was fellow Fleet member Trevor Keogh. Johnston: “People forget we didn’t kick a goal for the first 45 minutes while Collingwood had five.” Marcou: “‘Jezza’ (Carlton coach Alex Jesaulenko) said, ‘(Russell) Ohlsen’s killing us. Who’s going to look after him?’ Trevor said, ‘I will’ – and he did.” Johnston: “Then we kicked five goals in nine minutes.” Among them were goals to Harmes, Buckley (two) and Sheldon. Keogh received a reprimand from the Tribunal. Buckley: “Harmesy, give your Norm Smith Medal to Trevor. That’s nearly as bad a decision as when ‘Klompy’ (teammate Robbert Klomp) was given a TV (for best on ground after having just nine touches in a 1981 night series match).” Despite their size, Johnston and Buckley were renowned hard men. Buckley: “We did things others probably wouldn’t do.” afl.com.au | AFL RECORD

MOSQUITO FLEET Johnston: “That’s the way footy was back then.” Marcou: “You knew everyone had your back and you had theirs.” Buckley: “Even if they couldn’t fight, they were all in there.” In 1980, when an injury-ravaged Carlton suffered a straight-sets finals exit in their only season under Peter ‘Percy’ Jones, Sheldon was felled by Richmond backman Graeme Landy, who copped a four-week ban for striking and missed out on a premiership. Buckley: “One of us got him back because he had some blood trickling out of him in one game against us. Was it you, Ashy? A lot of people don’t realise that you were dirty.” Ashman shakes his head and says: “We certainly looked after each other, though.” And they still do. Ashman suffered a stroke five years ago but says he is fine now. Harmes picked him up and will later return him home. On this occasion Ashman was the quietest member of the group but laughed along, even when jokes were made at his expense. His mates admire him as one of their early mentors – on and off the field. They credit Ashman with creating the “third wingman” – a high-risk, high-reward tactic whereby he would run to space on the wing and wait for the Blues defenders to rebound the ball to him for an easy kick. Marcou said premiership teammate Peter McConville wanted a message relayed: “Make sure you write that the only reason the Mosquito Fleet were any good was that I kicked it to them from the backline.” They praised the efforts of their defenders but didn’t specifically mention McConville. Instead, they remain in awe of superstars Bruce Doull and Geoff Southby, who they say were key members of their “great support crew”, which also included Maclure and big men Mike Fitzpatrick and David McKay. Sheldon: “We’d get a blast from the coach for not helping out the defence and we’d say, ‘But Ashy’s our role model and he’s never set foot down there.’” Ashman: “Didn’t have to with our backmen. It would’ve been an insult to offer them help.” Sheldon: “That’s right. Why crowd our defence and cramp their style?” Ashman: “Anyway, we made them look good, especially ‘Doully’.” Sheldon: “Yeah, his four best and fairests can be attributed to what we did with the ball once he won it back and got it to us.” Buckley: “I never ran to the wing like that – I was in the engine room.” 40

IN THE RIGHT SPOT:
Ken Sheldon kicked the match-winning goal in the 1979 Grand Final after Wayne Harmes famously knocked the ball back from the boundary line.
Johnston: “I never got to the wing – I never went that far up the ground.” Sheldon: “There was a queue of us out there – we should’ve been selling tickets.” Late in Parkin’s last season as Hawthorn coach in 1980, the Blues belted the Hawks at Princes Park, after which Parkin derided “the Carlton cheats” for their habit of running forward of the ball. The next year, new Blues coach Parkin tried to change the ingrained practice. At half-time of an early game, with Carlton trailing, Parkin demanded they help their backmen. On the resumption of play, the ball immediately went into Carlton’s backline and Ashman automatically ran to the wing. Parkin roared, “Go and tell that bloody Ashman … !” Unbeknown to the coach, the public address system had not been turned off and his message boomed out around the ground. Ashman replied with a smile and a wave. Parkin was always going to struggle to curb his players’ social lives. No one
went as hard as the train-hard, play-hard, party-hard Blues. Parkin’s first pre-season camp with Carlton was in Thailand in late 1980 and proved an eye-opener. One night the players celebrated McConville’s buck’s night and on their way home they saw Parkin setting up witches’ hats for their morning training session on Pattaya Beach. Sheldon: “‘Parko’ gave us a gruelling running regime but we did it on our ears, half-charged. That’s when he thought, ‘I don’t know what I’ve got here.’” So how did they combine these competing interests? Harmes: “Easy. There’s a time for hard work and a time for fun.” Sheldon: “Just as Jimmy exemplified when he won his best and fairest in ’82.” Buckley: “Then I went to a party at Ashy’s joint and a nightclub afterwards and got glandular bloody fever.” Parkin says the Mosquito Fleet was at the forefront of Carlton’s player-driven culture, delivering critiques in a comical but cutting way to ward off complacency. Buckley: “We played bloody hard off the ground but we had
MOSQUITO FLEET
a great hunger to win, we had great leadership qualities and we wanted to keep performing to the level we were renowned for, so we demanded the best from each other.” Harmes: “We only accepted excellence.” Marcou: “These days a player makes a mistake and his teammates pat him on the bum, but we’d cop it. If Bomba didn’t pass to me how I expected, I’d have a go at him. Same thing if Ashy didn’t handball.” Buckley: “You never handballed, Ashy.” Ashman: “I was never taught to.” Johnston: “You blokes always bagged me for not handballing, too.” Sheldon: “It could be a brutal retrospective during our pleasant Sunday mornings.” Ashman: “But it had to be done the right way. Soon after ‘Buzz’ (Peter Bosustow) joined us, he had a go at a young guy and a few of us put him back in his place.” Harmes: “If anyone got ahead of themselves, they’d be brought back to earth very quickly.” Johnston: “I got ahead of myself calling myself the Dominator at a nightclub, and I copped it hard the next morning at training.” Johnston is hailed as one of the great finals players and could easily have won multiple Norm Smith Medals. Johnston: “As a forward it was easy to lead to these blokes.”
ANGE FOR COACH During a lunch with the Mosquito Fleet back in June – just three weeks after the sacking of coach Mick Malthouse – the only pall on proceedings was the plight of their beloved Blues. At the time, the club was still looking for a new coach and Ken Sheldon was on the selection panel. (Brendon Bolton has since been appointed to the position.) Sheldon happily accepted suggestions from his old mates. Harmes suggested the job should go to fellow selection panel member, Socceroos coach Ange Postecoglou (which Harmes first pronounced “Costepoglou”), “to teach them to kick the ball along the ground – because they sure as hell can’t kick it properly in the air!” Sheldon: “And he’d give us a good defensive pattern.” Carlton fans would also love a modern version of the Mosquito Fleet. Marcou: “We’d kill it. We had everything.” Buckley: “With all the cameras, we couldn’t be as dirty though.” Johnston: “But we’d get more rest with all the rotations.” Buckley: “That’d be great – more time to listen to races.”
Buckley: “I’m staggered the Dominator isn’t in the (Australian Football) Hall of Fame. He rose to the occasion and did the hard things and the skilful things.” Ed: He is now. Johnston is one of just 12 official legends in Carlton’s Hall of Fame. (The other five Mosquito Fleeters are club Hall of Famers.) Marcou: “Do you worry about that stuff, Dom?” Johnston: “Couldn’t care less.” One item of footy history Johnston does care about though is his missing 1982 premiership jumper. He recently received a phone call from a stranger, who claimed to have the guernsey and offered to sell it to him for $5000. Johnston was considering his legal options. Harmes swapped one of his premiership jumpers with Collingwood hulk Rene Kink. “It might fit me now,” Harmes quipped. The triumphant Blues of 1981-82 still pinch themselves that they were invited to post-premiership functions hosted by then Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser – a Carlton fan – and wife Tamie at The Lodge in Canberra. Marcou: “Not many people get invited to the Lodge.” Harmes: “Not many people would be silly enough to invite us back a second time.” Sheldon: “Even fewer would’ve broken an ankle there.” Sheldon is referring to a woman who was Marcou’s date at the PM’s residence in 1981 and broke an ankle after taking a tumble down the stairs. Marcou told the story at a Spirit of Carlton function in 2011. It’s on YouTube. An amused viewer was another former PM, Julia Gillard, who told Marcou such gatherings would not be permitted at The Lodge now because of the media attention it would attract. Parkin laments that Carlton’s dynasty doesn’t receive enough attention, as it rarely rates a mention when discussion turns to the greatest teams. The Mosquito Fleet agrees. Johnston: “After we won in ’79 we lost our coach and president (George Harris), then finished (just percentage off) top spot under a new coach, and then went back-to-back under a third coach. No one else has done that.”

ZACH MERRETT MERRETT BEST BOMBER OF 2019 u Zach Merrett’s 2019 report card saw him
finish ‘dux’ of the Bombers’ class. The ever-consistent midfielder claimed his second best and fairest last season after winning the award in 2016 and finishing third in 2018. Merrett led Essendon for average disposals (28.3), uncontested possessions (16.6) and had a career-high season in clearances (4.7) and goal assists (0.6). But the one statistic that Bomber teammates and fans would rate the highest was the fact Merrett led his team in pressure acts – 578 at an average of 26.7 a game. According to Champion Data, Merrett racked up 1307 pressure points from those 578 pressure acts last year. Merrett’s standout performance came against Adelaide in round 18, when he powered the Bombers to an important win with 31 disposals and kicked 2.3. Most would rate Merrett in the top echelon of the competition’s midfielders with his class, poise by foot and ball-carrying ability. Strangely, Merrett was left out of Essendon’s leadership group in 2020, having been in it for several years and leading the Bombers when regular skipper Dyson Heppell struggled with a foot injury in 2019. 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).

Social media distance Time to flatline on some of the headlines.
T
wo events of the past month highlight that the football media’s – and by extension the football public’s – thirst for news never stops no matter what crisis the world is facing. It’s not our intention to comment or judge the issues of Bulldogs star Lachie Hunter and former North Melbourne premiership player and coach Dean Laidley. That will happen via due process and our judicial system. But you can’t help but feel for both, particularly Laidley, given the glut of commentary from informed and not-so informed people either in the media or via social media. Former teammates have reached out and, metaphorically speaking, thrown their arms around a man who gave everything for the Roos, and previously West Coast, but now finds himself in a dark place. Mental health is such a massive issue in society and football, and indeed sport, is littered with examples of people who have taken time out to face their demons. Reactions like “harden up” stick in the craw of many leading the mental health crusade, including one of Laidley’s old North Melbourne teammates Wayne Schwass. During a recent interview with Schwass on SEN Breakfast with

BEST BET: Fans would be best advised to use their phones for happy snaps and players check their fitness apps like Tiger Kamdyn McIntosh.
Garry Lyon and Tim Watson, Lyon himself admitted to learning a salutary lesson during what was supposedly a light-hearted segment on his old radio station Triple M. This is no knock on Triple M because they bring great entertainment to listeners. James Brayshaw’s urgings of ex-Tiger Jake ‘The Push Up’ King some years ago were genuinely funny as was some of the pre-match banter between commentators. But Lyon now reflects that a post-match segment titled ‘worst-on-ground’, where the commentary team would give three “votes” to the worst player, was insensitive to players at the time. In fact, one player who was voted ‘WOG’ contacted Lyon via a third party and told him so. The segment no longer exists but it highlights how attitudes can – and must – change. In the broader picture, social media can be a very useful tool and as we are seeing on a world stage at the moment, crucial messaging from governments and our leaders is playing an important role in trying to keep us safe and healthy. But on the flip side, social media is a free hit for ill-informed keyboard warriors to whack whoever might be in the headlines.
You will have to deal with me CRAIG BELLAMY’S WARNING TO HIS PLAYERS
Why would a footballer, whether he’s a star or a kid coming into the system, bother to read it? Sadly, they have even more time on their hands now and their so-called failings are laid bare. Heaven help if they commit an offence. So what’s the answer? Maybe Melbourne Storm coach Craig Bellamy’s blunt response to one of his players, who was caught breaching social distancing laws, is the way to go. “There’s a few of you guys out of control with social media,” Bellamy told his players via a Zoom meeting earlier this week. “When you are back (at training) on Monday, it’s banned.” He also promised that “if any of you (expletive) this up for our club, then you will have to deal with me.” A touch old school but you’d like to think his players are smart enough to buy in. It would be nice if those keyboard warriors could also buy in and think twice before taking down a player. They (the players) are a lot braver than some of you think.

u Immortalised by late
WEST COAST v GWS GIANTS, 2014 u The star Eagle helped
himself to his best goal haul in round eight, six years ago. ‘JK’ demoralised the Giants’ defence at Subiaco, putting on a clinic from full-forward with 11 majors. Complete with his unusual stuttering run-up, Kennedy kicked three in the opening term, two each in the second and third before running riot with a further four in the final quarter. He finished with 11 straight (even if his fifth goal was a little bit dodgy) in the most prolific performance of his career.
2. MATTHEW RICHARDSON
RICHMOND v WESTERN BULLDOGS, 2004 u ‘Richo’ kicked plenty of bags
in his career but in round four, 2004, he reached double figures for the first and only time. It was against the Western Bulldogs on a sunny May Saturday at the MCG. The much-loved Tiger went bang, bang from outside 50 twice in the opening term, proved too strong for his opponents with a second-quarter pair, the fifth and sixth came in quarter three before a final-term haul of four got him to 10. The 10th was a deft round ball scoop and quality left-foot finish. He also raked in 13 marks to go with 16 kicks and one solitary handball, inspiring the yellow and black to a four-goal win.

to say he wasn’t an absolute superstar though. He did kick nine on three occasions in his career with one of those bags coming in round eight, 2006. The Saints destroyed Carlton by 92 points at the MCG and largely have ‘Roo’ to thank. He kicked three by half-time before banging home six in the second half to go with 13 marks and 12 kicks. It happened to be Riewoldt’s 99th game so it would have been nice if he waited a week to deliver a performance like this. (For the record, the Saints beat North in his 100th!).

line by eight points. He also had 11 possessions and 10 tackles for good measure. “Not Ben Ronke, ‘Buddy’ Ronke,” was how Bruce McAvaney described it.
5. PORT ADELAIDE AND JAY SCHULZ
PORT ADELAIDE v NORTH MELBOURNE, 2012 u Now this was some win. The
Power trailed the Kangaroos by 32 points with less than 15 minutes remaining at Football Park. Even when down by 20 points with under eight minutes to go, it appeared too big a mountain to climb. But the home side kicked four in quick succession to come from the clouds. Schulz kicked four of Port’s six last-quarter goals, giving him seven for the match, in one of the most powerful finishes we’ve seen. ANDREW SLEVISON
TV commentator Mike Williamson’s brilliant call, Malcolm Blight’s remarkable torpedo punt to sink Carlton after the siren this time 44 years ago remains one of the game’s most memorable moments. Blight was at his magical best against the Blues, finishing with five goals as the Kangaroos triumphed by five points. An inaugural inductee in the Australian Football Hall of Fame in 1996, he was elevated to Legend status in 2017. A brilliant footballer who was equally at home in the midfield or in attack, Blight started his career with SANFL club Woodville. He crossed to North Melbourne in 1974 and became an integral part of the group under Ron Barassi that won the club’s first two flags. Blight is the only player to have produced 100-goal seasons in the AFL/VFL and SANFL. He is also the only winner of the Brownlow, Magarey and Coleman Medals. He went on to become a master coach, leading the Crows to successive premierships in 1997-98.

ANSWER MAN
with COL HUTCHINSON
u If his surname
is anything to go by, Brisbane’s Cam Rayner (below) will be a great asset to the Lions, if he is not already. Rayner can be traced back to two Germanic words, ragin (good advice) and hari (army). Rayner, therefore, could be taken to mean “wise warrior”. While this description could apply to Rayner’s ex-teammate Luke Hodge, Lions fans can rest happy in the knowledge there is a successor already “named”. Although Rayner is an ancient name, Cam is the first Rayner to play senior AFL/VFL football, however, the surname of former champion Geoff Raines may also come from ragin.

A WISE LIONS WARRIOR
KEVAN CARROLL
For each of the past three seasons, there have been just five or six cases of a player scoring at least seven goals in a match. I recall that during the 1990s, such an achievement was far more frequent. Which year has produced the most instances? CH: There have been four significant strings of years that have accumulated at least 25 cases per season of players booting a minimum of seven majors in a match – 1932-33-34-35-36; 1969-70-71-72; 1977-78-79-80 and 13 consecutive seasons played from 1984 until 1996. The most remarkable year was 1993, when the amazing total of 70 cases occurred, including a memorable Geelong-Essendon encounter when Gary Ablett snr booted 14 and Paul Salmon 10. There was at least one example of a player booting at least seven in each of the 22 home and away rounds, as well as the Grand Final, shared by 29 individuals. Ablett achieved the feat 10 times in his 17 appearances for the season. In round five at the MCG, North Melbourne debutant Adrian McAdam notched seven against Richmond, and a few days later added 10 against Sydney at Princes Park.
