Sadly have to take Darren Bewick out and put Lloydy in. Head was in a mess. I also called Dazza Damienā€¦ must have been dreaming.

Love those Gwilty - you are making a statement here. Wouldnā€™t we love to have just one of them in this team- the boys would all walk a foot taller- btw- add Dean Wallice

A former first choice draft pick around the 2000/01 period that, from memory, never played a game for us. Iā€™m pretty sure that was his name, unless Iā€™m mistaken miss_ellie.

Thatā€™s a mighty fine list of players there Budge but I find it incredulous that you couldnā€™t squeeze a certain name of a tallish club legend on that extended list.

I was there !!

Big crowd I remember over 25000 which was massive at Windy Hill, fights under the scoreboard, toilets over-flowing, cold and wet; just another typical game vs the Pies at Windy Hill.

Geoff Blethyn kicked a bag, so did Peter McKenna. John Williams at CHB played a great game and was our best. Pies had a very good team that year, Carlscum beat them in that famous GF. Bomber had a crap year; Jack Clarke was coach and he left at the end of th eseason; John Birt took over and while he was a great player, he was a poor coach with a poor team.

I remember that game only because I was selling meat-pies under the scoreboard and with the big crowd sold out early and watched most of the game from the scoreboard.

Memories of later Windy Hill games when I stood with my mates with our esky full of VB are much dimmer.
