A week before the draft Begley was staying at a workmates place (he’s great mates with his son). He says to my workmate, “you wouldn’t mind if I had a few girls over to stay the night would you?”
This guy is a throwback to the 80s, he drinks and parties hard. Just the sort of character football needs.
He is certainly a strong unit, I have not seen him in action but with some of the descriptions I am thinking Stewie Dew type player?
On or off the field?
If he could match him off field, he’d be a happy man. Ol’ stewy Dew nabbed himself covergirl Nikki Visser for a time. I’ve hated him ever since.
What a fine specimen she was
The day of the first final in 2000 when Lloydy kicked his 100th and we smashed the rattlers, we kicked on at Crown and Miss Visser happened to be there that night. Stunning! Great day that one.
Last endorsement we had from a player that I remember was Alex Browne saying the Marty Gleeson was a gun half way through his first season when he’d barely played much VFL and no one knew what to think of him.

Not sure that’s true.
Daniel Connors was skillful on the field but his extra curricular activities limited his gameday and training regime and he eventually disappeared from the game.
Hopefully this guy is more of a Dane Swan / Dustin Martin type who are just as good on the field than they are off it.
