My mates old man worked in the City and he used to get us the Footy Budget on a Friday arvo from Douges news agency, exciting times back then !!!

Jason Heatley was the best Vic recruit you blokes have had in my time, probably the most accurate kick at goal I have seen since Simon Beasley & Warren Ralph.

His mate Kane O'Brien, Peter Munro, John Begg, Mike Sheldon, David Miers, Brendon McFaull, Shane Braddy, Tom Floyd, Bret Hutchinson, Greg Jones, Mick Jennings, Jarrod Hocking & Cory Young to name just a few others both good & not so!

You used to get the Football Budget in many newsagents around the suburbs until about 3 or 4 years ago but they stopped because as I was told, they weren't selling enough copies.

Now they give them free with entry cost to the WAFL grounds. Apparently the WAFL Clubs subsidise them.

BH -- beautifully done. One you could add is Peter Bennett -- one game in 1982

What about that little bloke from Tassie I used to like... Errol Bourne I think?
