@PosterBoyWiz @sirswampthing Michael Tuck played with Peter and Paul Hudson.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@piersk72 @HawthornFC Yes, correct. The article itself refers to the fact that he reached the 200-game milestone in Round 1.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@PaulAmy375 Very sad news.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@ozrobbo @FoxCricket @LawrieColliver I think it’s referring to a home and away game in that season, as the final at Marvel had attendance of 40,816.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@StevoMedia Boland wasn’t actually in the team. He didn’t play in Australia’s two most recent Tests.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@philltee @jk06OZ And if we got Anderson, we almost certainly wouldn’t have been able to get Will Day.

@ThatMillwallPod 1988

@ARJ7X @sirswampthing @AFL @HawthornFC Alan Story doing so too, for a 15-gamer!

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@daanysaeed @DanielCherny Tottenham v Man Utd?

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@DanielCherny What on earth is wrong with that?! Have a look at what both wore in 1990 GF. It was fine then and is fine now.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@StathHawk @HawthornFC Thanks Peter. What a day it was!

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@JohnUre64 Great work John.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@eeza23 @HawthornFC @sirswampthing Outstanding work Ian.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@StathHawk @HawthornFC Thanks Peter. Yes, two other classics there.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@BradKlibansky @HawksInsiders Actually we played the opening game in 1992 also.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@eeza23 And to cap it off, didn’t give us the final behind either.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@HawthornFC The Kayo score is wrong. The scoreboard at the ground says Geelong 10.13.73 Hawthorn 10.8.68

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@ALeaguesCrowds Shame it changed as otherwise it was identical to the crowd in Adelaide.

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@AFLisnotasport And Nicholls and Jesaulenko (Carlton)

[Richard Allsop @AllsopRichard]

@AFLisnotasport Plus Hutchison with Coleman and Reynolds at Essendon
