The club will then be open afterwards for everyone to go back to (let’s face it – where else would he have wanted it), so everyone can have a bite to eat, a drink or two and share some of the great memories that “The Egg” has left us all with.

Billy, you will be sadly missed. I can't imagine walking into the club and not seeing you there. As Max wrote; Some of the Champions of Footy don't need medals or premierships to be admired by all. I think that says it all.
Will miss you mate.

Great bloke who was a true clubman. Will be sorely missed.

The Plympton boys from the old days send to the Morhpy Park boys our condolences.Billy was a true club person thru & thru. RIP Billy.
Plympton Sports Club.

Sincere condolences to Billy's family and the Morphettville Park Football Club.

Billy was a true gem, the sort of bloke that builds a club and provides the backbone to keep it going - yet is so self-effacing he stays in the background and shuns the glory he should get.

Things won't be the same without Billy. It's a huge loss to MPFC, the league, and football in general. There's not enough heart-and-soul football people around like Billy and sadly now there's one of the best gone.

Vale Billy. You have inspired many of us to do a little bit more, I hope your memory will continue to do so.

15 this year 12 in 2014..... Have been the points to assist in building the club as juniors have been an issue coming through, hopefully now the 18 up and about the system will revert to an even playing field.

23 years is a long time, lets hope we can do it. To all you Roo supporters out there, lets get down to South Adelaide, shout, scream and yell and help the boys get over the line. Then back to the club for one big night.

To all SFL member clubs.

Vale: Roger Manual

Roger has been a hugh part of both Morphett Vale and Morphettville Park Football Club for many years
A life member at The Roos, Roger sady passed away Friday afternoon after a short illness.

A genuine bloke who so enjoyed helping all players from all clubs, enjoyed a good laugh, a Port and great banter.
