Read this whilst my train was sitting idle at Prahran station this morning, and it put a smile on my dial:

True blue

particularly this bit:

Quote:
She liked Jack Elliott, reckons the league got him. "Demetriou played for North Melbourne," she says. "One of our boys probably got into him when they played." I'm not sure she's joking.


had to quote that one for Agro!

Anyway, Myra's a bloody legend!

Go blues.

The women's footy team could be a nice story to follow up for the Blueseum as well.

Great article.

Need to follow that up.

I have tried to contact Martin Flanagan in the past through The Age to no avail, if anyone knows of any way to contact him please let me know via PM.

If you had to spend a week on a desert island with any Carlton player (past or present), who would you choose and why?: Eddie Betts. We would look after each other.
