smokey Topic Author Offline Platinum Member Posts: 2990 Thank you received: 224	Some pleasing news for the club to hear that Merv McIntosh has been elevated to Legend status in the AFL Hall of Fame. IMHO, a much overdue acknowledgement. And Rob Wiley has been added to the AFL Hall of Fame. Well deserved...

Hopefully, several more WA players will received the deserved status of legend of the game of Aussie Rules.

Time For a Flag Offline Platinum Member The VFL is not the AFL Posts: 2336 Thank you received: 163	Thanks Satan, I wouldn't have seen that if you didn't put it up. I will be showing my boys - this is why i love the WAFL boys -great footage Victorians still laugh at West Aussies because of the way we bailed out the vfl and then allowed it to be called it the AFL!

There is some great archival footage of the Great man.
A giant of the game.
You should be able to pick it up with Google/Utube.
Was lucky enough to get his signature on a Centenary jumper now in the museum at Lathlain.
WOW 2 legends of Australian football out of the PFC.

Winning isn't everything. It's the ONLY THING !!!!!!
