Just one of the tables of greats last night - together were Malcom Blight, Russell Ebert, Peter Woite, Brodie Atkinson, Darren Jarmen with many other previous medalists including Bob Hank, Jimmy Deane and Ron Benton also attending.

Stories lasted well into the night. It really is an excellent night. Get along next year if you can
