Re: Following our ex's...................

I know what you meant Chef. The premiership players will be in our minds forever, even if they have left. Nothing will take that away from them, and they will be back for many reunions for the rest of their lives.

Thanks BAD, not sure it was worth getting mocked over but each to their own i guess.

Spoke to soon.

Shane Ellen - AFEL immortal!

See above. Aaron Keating makes him look like Wayne Carey!

6 career matches, 1 premiership, 0 possessions in the GF. Adelaide immortal!

Take it easy Chef, just a bit of fun.

Re: Following our ex's...................

For example Murphy only played 3 games that season and based on the fact that the likes of Dahlhaus and Stringer are regarded as "immortal and legends" but not the likes of Bob is the reason why it doesn't sit well with me.

I certainly thank all of the players who got GF medals and I won't speak badly of them but they're not all immortal/legends in my humble opinion just because they won a medal.

I do get your point though.

In 62 years that whole premiership team will be considered Bullgods, Immortals whatever you want to call them and the Bob Murphy's, Brad Johnson's of this world will be former captains and good players. Such is the nature of the business = winning premierships.

Yep. Premierships and the winning of them are what it's all about. Special players take their opportunities when they present themselves.

I'm not downplaying Bob Murphy's or Brad Johnson's achievements on the field (I love them both) but the fact is they never got to mount the premiership dais and that's the whole reason we play the game.

I prefer the term 'Bullgod'

FWIW, I'm okay with Premiership hero but immortal and legend are at another level in my opinion. Bullgod is close.

I admire anyone game enough to step into the ring with Clay.

It all depends on whether you can box or not. My uncle taught me to box when I was a kid and up until a couple of years ago even though I am little I was pretty confident stepping up against anyone no matter their size because my feet would carry me out of reach long enough for me to plant one on their nose. I'm too slow these days though so I just keep my opinions to myself.

Marcus Adams named on the extended bench for Brisbane this week.

Also Kyle Dunkley for Melbourne (Ok, not an ex but feels like the one that got away and he did play for Footscray).

I just hope Clay's got the skills because he's got too much courage for his own good.
