          Great player well done. Let's hope our mosquito fleet can replicate his output.

            Best sheepdog to ever play the game.

            Jokes aside, mighty effort and he's been a champion of the modern game. Torn us a new one on too many occasions to mention (pre-Picken days of course )

              I remember a game where he was knocked out, I think in the first quarter, and I thought great we can do without him killing us again. Guess what he came back on and killed us again.

                      Re: Boomer Harvey

                      Was Michael Tuck well liked? I ask because KB, Boomer and Fletcher have all had their share of detractors so I wonder if it is just due to the fact that they've been around so long, everybody has time to develop hateful memories?

                      Well done to him though, I guess.

                        Is it the first surname to have two 400 gamers?
                        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                            Ran the length off the ground and kicked a girl. It wasn't fair. We knocked him out but he didn't seem to under stand that was it for the day. How many times do we have to knock him down?

                              Don't like him as a player but a kudos to him for reaching this milestone.

                                Great footballer Tucky, and if anything underrated .
                                Built like a stick, but was as tough as nails .
