    8former Bulldogs in squad. Attended last year and enjoyed it. As Easty says, for a great cause. Take binoculars so you can see the funny faces/smirks/looks of incredulity and lots of banter amongst the players.

    We should get Gilbee back for specialist kicking

    How strong is Danny southern still ! Browny is no stick, just threw him like a rag doll.

    It's a close one. Very high scoring

    Loved Brayshaws comment. It's rare to have a kick after the siren to win it but it's even more rare to have a 'mark' and a kick after the siren!
    They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

    Matera was before my time. What was he like?

    Yeah good, more a small leading forward than a crumber. Had a lot of success on Subiaco
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    Super player, well deserved his Norm Smith because no one turned it on in a big game like Peter Matera.

    He was subject to one of the first super contract offers (from Melbourne) but knocked it back.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Once he got going on his wing he was unstoppable. I would have loved to see him and Doug Hawkins at his mid 80s best slug it out on a wing but Doug just missed playing Matera at his best. Matera would have had Doug for pace but ball smarts and his bull like strength in the contest (and the fact he was Doug Hawkins) would won the Hawk the day.
