Andrew Welsh - back to the Wooosha times

Moved on well before the Feds evicted me from the family home with Mrs Fox the Second, and probably by the end of the honeymoon with Mrs Fox the First. Still at peace with Mrs Fox the Current.

Actually I never have any problem moving on with anything, except for some reason Barry Davis really got to me. He was a great footballer, was always quiet and polite, I doubt he ever used alcohol, and I am sure he would never smoked. About the best drop kick I ever saw.

Epis was on Baldock for part of the time. I remember in front of the old southern stand Baldock raked Alec’s shin with his stops and Alec then kicked him in the back of the calf. One umpire and limited cameras.

And l was just going on Tim Lane’s ratings, and them from some 30 years ago or so.

Tim Lane was merely a commentator.

He was in the WOS kicking comp and lost one time with a drop kick of 74 yards i

I am not going to argue against that. Merely passing on his opinion

Land also said when Jobe admitted to being administered AD9604 he should lose his Brownlow.

Well he is bostard on that score.

So now we have both newly elected board members resigning within 12 months of their term. Who do you reckon we appoint into their spot?

I think we all know who one is going to be.

Raking the shin is the reason the Shinboner’s got their name . Nothing to do with the Abattoir. My Grandfather was trainer for the Big V in the 30’s , he was the one who told this story.

Who?

I’m guessing Hird will have a go.

Very happy with Solly appointment from a coaching point of view.

It does set a bit of an awkward precedent, though. We had assumed that if Hird comes onto the Board, that it would shut down talk of him coaching again. But now if Hirdy comes on the board, it would put pressure on Scott (even if unintentional).

I think two good Board appointments (if we are going for football people as implied) would be David Hille or Jobe Watson.
