"but as of right now, James Hird has it, for mine. Whether there was a medal up for grabs or not, he just found a way to play well when it mattered.’

My 1st footy memories were walking to the MCG in my wool Jersey with the big number 5 on the back that my nonna sewed on. James Hird made me fall in love with this game and club and I will be forever grateful.
Now go and win another flag FFS!!!

Hird along with Mercuri were carrying injuries and should not have played that day.
