Came from North Melbourne. I don't know that he went alright as Ledge said (I think the passage of time has him looking back with rose coloured glasses) but there used to be two homemade signs on the fence. If he wasn't playing it said "Put Brian Perrin In The Seniors" and if he was playing it said "Keep Brian Perrin In The Seniors"
We used to think it must have been his mum who put them there
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

He has certainly been less likely to concede a goal with an error.

You would think Sanders would get 9 as Gilbee handed him the Jumper on draft night.
Up to Croft if he wants the old mans jumper

They should retire 41 as a mark of respect for the Sweet Prince

I think it's a basic safety precaution. Can you imagine a draftee putting on His Royal Highness' jumper? They'd break every bone in their body.
