I enjoy listening to his morning show. A great footballer too. A real gun. Well deserved KB.

The man who wants all the rules changed so the game resembles the good old days of the 70s and 80s

It's probably Freudian.

It was him who started up on decreasing interchange rotations I think.

One of mt favourite lines of all time was down to KB when Harry Beitzel retired. KB said when he started playing footy that he had a full head of long blonde hair and Harry Beitzel was bald. Now that they had both finished with footy, KB was bald and Harry's hair had grown back!

Probably SEN's best talent, although not exactly a group one field .

That's not even a maiden field at Dapto!

KB was an enormously talented and durable player, and his MCG record is second to none - richly deserved accolade. Plus anybody who drove a knife into Collingwood hearts like he did in 1980 deserve kudos

Was 1980 the year that Moore and Dempsey kept pushing and pulling each other over in that final?

What is the criteria for being eligible to have a statue at the MCG?

EJ might qualify although EJ has recognition at the Whitten Oval, Braybrook Hotel and Ring Road bridge.
