in my career, these players have had the nice treat of meeting me
1.playing primary school knockout at back of cumberland oval, and a certain commentator of fame was blind drunk at 11 in the morn. in hindsight because i am alot older -not a bad idea
2.ian schuberts sister taught me at school
3.once nearly had the pleasure of being beaten to a pulp by the legendary paul mares at the general burke at parra- how was i to know that it was his bird?luckily for me, he had just had his knee operation which was unfortunately a career ending one for him. vg player cut short by injuries imo
4.ben hornsby threw a frozen chook at a group i was in at rosehill races
5.just seen dylan farrell ordering food to go at a eatery in culburra(his home town) he is on crutches at the moment
6.regulary see jack de belin in culburra, as he is mates with jack buchanan (u20's) who also grew up here, as does adam quinlan (u20's)
7.last new year saw all the mortimer clan down here.daniel dressed up in drag looking the part.he was happy to talk and joke with.peter was very happy to talk as we got the courtesy bus home from the club.they wern NOT pissed, but i was, so i know it was a joy to talk to me.
8. jack jefferies lives down here as well,great guy but dosen't talk about footy much. on an occasion he has, he told me the hardest tackler he encountered was the great TERRY RANDALL said he almost cut him in half
have talked to few more over the years but alcahol has caught up with me and i can't remember
