Re: Vale Tom Hafey
What a wonderful bloke and coach.
Remember talking footy back in about 2000 on a tram on the way home from a game.
Didn't get the cold shoulder, and he loved talking footy.Comment

Re: Vale Tom Hafey
Will never forget while I was surf fishing in the late 80s watching him run up and down and up and down the beach at Anglesea while doing countless amount of push ups at each end. Whenever I think of him I think of that morning.
RIP Tom.But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.Comment

Re: Vale Tom Hafey
It's a time to celebrate the life of a great man, let alone great sportsman. I will forever remember a man who was ruthlessly fit, and an inspiration for every wannabe fit person like I want to be that there's no excuse or substitute for hard work. I was only thinking today how Teddy went long before Tommy or Barassi, and even Tommy has gone too soon. I hope his legend inspires for a long time to come.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Inspiring when you read about all the community work, even into his senior years. A real character. Condolences.You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships every day. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity. ― EpicurusComment

Re: Vale Tom Hafey
Heard tonight the routine was up at 5.20
8km run hundreds of push ups and sit ups, and then off for a swim in the Bay.
Every single day. IncredibleComment
