Jeez ToOl..whats your problem with McGinnity? As an opposition supporter I reckon he's hard, tough, pretty fair and lives and breathes EP....I'm not sure why you're having a crack at him as I see him as a loyal servant of the club who had it 28 times against your mob.

Just trying to spice things up BC and reminding a former player that he has barely ever had a win against his former club.

Yep and I am sure he is aware of the win and loss ratio but as far as his commitment to the club he cannot be questioned and if he was at Tigger land he would be exactly the same.

The Tiggers looked good in a scrappy game, there were times I thought that they we just going to break it open but the scrappiness just seemed to stop it.

McGinnity has played for East Perth against Claremont 9 times for 4 wins 5 losses and only averages more disposal per game against West Perth (23.5) than he does against Claremont (22.7)

It's perfectly understandable why Paddy would want to play for the same club his dad represented.
Paddy gives his heart and soul to the Royals and I'm glad he made the choice to stay with the blue-and-black when the alignment (thankfully) finished.

Kevin was a lot more skilled then paddy and was a shame that injury cruelled his career.I think he was the best afield in one of those escort cup games that wafl teams played in against vfl sides in the seventies.

Was that the one against Footscray at VFL Park?

according to my research that is the game.played at vfl park under lights they joined east fremantle as the only other club to have beaten a Victorian team under lights at vfl park.I have the feeling he won a tv for being best on ground but I can't find anything to confirm my shonky memory.Kevin was one of my favourite players from that time period.
