The hound didn't play against us - he played his mandatory 5 games and then spat the dummy when he got dropped from for the GF. :lol:


I know he didnt play us at HV, couldnt recall the anzac match at pulteney though..

For me it was Trent Ormond Allen SMOSH, Threadgold PAC(although not AFL but the shirtfront he gave me was a cracker never forget it) coached agaisnt Jars when he played for CBC for one of the clubs stalwarts in that blokes 250th or something. Still had that good old Jars magic kicking goals that in reality should never have eventuated. Its awesome seeing, playing with or against those who you idolised or a part of the elite level of footy.

92 was his first year at aussie rules. Would take a freak mark at CHB, run around 3 or 4 people and kick it out on the full. My all time favorite coach, Colin Graham, spent a lot of time with Clive and can take some credit for him becoming an AFL player.

Played footy with Chris Johnson and Xavier Clarke earlier this year over in Wagga in a footy carnival. Was Awsome getting silver service delivery into the forward line.
Played on Troy Bond for 1 quarter after he kicked 9 in the first 3 quarters. Luckily he was all kicked out and didn't have another shot. Was a funny bugger though.

I've played with and against quite a few over the years - as a kid and in seniors.
Sam Fisher is still going around. I'm pretty certain I played in his very first senior game for Barmera-Monash.
I remember Roos supporters being pretty excited that he was playing, because of the Fisher name at Barmera but also because he'd focused on golf for the few years prior to that.
Gun footballer. Nice bloke too.
You're my only friend, and you don't even like me.

Played against Gavin Wanganeen & Troy Bond in juniors, they were in the same side and neither of them was the best player in their team.
I always had the tagging role on Troy Bond.

Greg McAdam finished up at Eastern Park but his knee's were buggered by then, still very skillful though.
