That '85 Prelim was a lost opportunity for sure. Who was supposed to be on Leigh Matthews? One Brad Hardie I believe.

Was great to hear from Chocco. Thought he spoke very well. Thanks for the link.

Look forward to giving it a listen.

I was watching the 85' semi final fairly recently (v North Melbourne). Dougie was noted as best on ground in that game and had 38 possessions (Doug also says its the best game he's played). But Choco's game was phenomenal also. First half he plays as a rover, second half as a forward pocket. And finishes with 21 possessions and 5 goals (if I recall correctly).

Yep pretty sure it was 5 goals. I always remember how Brian would kick a goal and run back to the middle shaking his head because the king hit merchants used to dine out on Choco because he always played the ball and left himself open to a head knock as he was going for the ball. He always did it. Trying to get the stars out of his brain before the next centre bounce.

Choco. Bang. Goal He was a star was Brian Royal.

Straight after Beasley kicks his 100th and the ground clears and everyone settles down again Daniels kicks one of the most amazing goals I've ever seen. He snapped the ball across his body from the centre wing at the MCG. The ball had barely travelled forward from the centre bounce when Shorty picks it up and without turning to face the goals even he just slings it on his boot and the ball tracks as if it had been shot out of rocket launcher. It just kept going and going.

Sometimes it's just your day.

He was always applying for senior coaching jobs but never got one

A great listen, have always loved Choco and isn't Peter Donegan great. Don't know why he doesn't call AFL football.
