lol, typos are always accepted but i wont stand for factual errors,

I think you had him confused with Maylon Jennings. He's the player Jezza took the mark over in the 1970 GF.

Nice read despite the errors.

I was in Hamburg three years back and went to a beer hall with a few Aussie mates who played for the Hamburg Dockers in the German AFL league. They knew Wow and invited him along for the night. Ended up having a few beers with him and some photos taken - the man is enormous! Was a good bloke with plenty of funny stories from his playing days.

cool stuff, wow was great value for the blues in his day, made the most out of his career

Not to mention Rene Kink, not Rene King

heres my email to Col

luckily i spelt the names right

he replied and by saying thanks for spotting that out , he said they expanded the range of the photo and saw david young of collingwood there and that it was the 1980 semi final, decent of him to bother calling me back.


Hi col

I always look forward to your section in footy record

Just for your information the picture with kink and maylin states 1979 GF, not sure where the picture is actually taken from but maylin didn’t play in 1979

Regards

It's a good article.

Looks like a made a blunder with my tweet though.
