Cogs - would be captain now but for the injury and contested possessions wouldn't have been our weakness of recent times, that's for sure.

If Cog's never got injured, imagine the midfield now.

Cogs 1

Was our first cotchin without the fire works.  Losingvour no.1 mid killed a whole generation at punt road. Would have been captian and a luke ball type.

Brown 2.

7-2  was on form best player in afl. His injury went took hope of a semi-wallace-rebuild rebound to finals to the realization our list was shot. Needed major work.


Who knows what kind of stuff richo would have been if he had a better injury run. I hope the angels watch overb  lids  dust cotch roo

Agree Brown, but don't agree we were on the way to the finals then, we got thumped that night and there was nothing Brown could of done about that even if he had made it through the game.

I don't think we were even on the slide let alone going down it and one player doesn't get us to the finals..

But yes, he was missed...and put a big hole in the team.

Browny.

Still makes me sick thinking about that injury against the Demons that night.

'Batman and Robin' were a mighty combination.
