Re: Ekers

All honour, Tim Callan.

Pick no 36 (father/son) in the 2002 National Draft.

Retires 8 years later with a mere 34 games to his name. His last three games were all finals.

An Eker of the highest order.

Re: Ekers

Simon Wiggins retired today. Along with Ron Delulio he has made the number 34 at Carlton a truly great Eker number.

An eker of the highest order, i still remember a game where he kicked 3-4 against us, if ever there was a sure sign we were going to lose Wiggins was it

Retire in Peace Chief

That was his hundredth game and we were six goals up at halftime. We made Nick Stevens look like a thoroughbred that day.

Re: Ekers

Zac Dawson gets the Shane Ellen medal for the GF replay after his job on Cloke.

With list lodgments not too far away, we will see a massive changing of the Eker guard.

This is always a dangerous time of year for ekers in the AFL. For those not in the AFL right now its a great time.

Re: Ekers

The Ekers have lost another with news big man Jason Laycock has been delisted by the Bombers.

Selection 10 in the 2002 draft, Laycock managed 58 games in 7 seasons including a grand total of 0 in the past 2. Jason we salute you!

True, but it is also the time when two of history's greatest Ekers get to shine!




Ricky Nixon

Carlton 1983-1985, 4 games, 1 goal
St Kilda 1986-1991 51 games, 32 goals
Hawthorn 1992-1993 8 games, 6 goals

That's an eleven year career at three clubs for sixty three games. And he actually left St Kilda because of a contract dispute. The man was magnificent.





Craig (Ned) Kelly

Collingwood 1989-1996, 122 games, 43 goals

He pinched and he punched on every day of the month and his own teammates have claimed that no player in history has played more games with less talent.



Any Eker who uses any other manager is a fool. These two have been there, done that, and are still bloody prospering twenty years later.

Is it any wonder that Ricky Olarenshaw moved into player management?

Surely Liam Pickering gets a guernsey???????

Great work!

I was going to ask fellow Eker fans to make nominations for our Eker Hall of Ordinariness. Luke O'Sullivan and Jayson Daniels are the original members and I am inculding Ricky Nixon in as well.

A ripper of a post Rocket, you can almost add Marty Pask to that list for ekeing himself into player management.

I wouldn't have said his Ekeristic powers reached the highest highs (or the most mediocre), he never got a guernsey before being delisted by the Dogs...although he is a player agent extraordinaire now

Re: Ekers

I feel we need to take a moment to appreciate a much underrated Eker- Todd Ridley



Essendon (1991-1994)
25 games, 21 goals

Fremantle (1995-1996)
21 games, 16 goals

Hawthorn (1997)
2 games, 0 goals

7 seasons, 3 clubs, less than 50 games. Also has a claim to fame of being Fremantle football club's first goal kicker.
