Re: Who remembers 1985?
Zeno Tzatzaris. I actually went to school with Zeno. A top guy & from a lovely Greek family. You went to Zen's house in Melon Street Braybrook, you got fed, didn't matter if you had already eaten, you got fed.
I remember he played a blinder on Garry Ablett in about 1989 down at Kardinia Park & even tho we lost Zeno got 3 votes.
Regarding that game agains North out at Waverley in '85 he was pitted agains Phil Krakouer for most of the last quarter & his body strength helped enormously. I later asked him how he felt against Krakouer & he just said, "I was ****************ting myself".
At Primary School Zeno was one of the fastest kids in all of Victoria, often coming back from the State Championships with the gold medal.
85, 92, 97, 98, 08, 09, 10... Break the curse!
