I grew up hating Kerley, but geez, he seems like a real honest, straight as a tack, bloke's bloke. I thoroughly enjoyed tonight's episode.

You have to be kidding me. A football icon full of interesting stories or a bullshit artist who is full of himself and had very little truth to offer.

Missed the first 5 mins, but enjoyed the episode with Vossy last night. Was such a brilliant footballer it's easy to forget that sometimes, when he's been surrounded by Black, Aker, Lappin, Power and co.

Whilst Vossy was perhaps the smoother mover of the two, always thought there was a lot of similarity between him and Paul Kelly -
Both rugged and hard at it, play tall, courage personified.

cam mooney was on tonight, said he was offered $750k over 3 years to play at port at the end of 2001 and was ready to sign but changed his mind when they took him for a drive around adelaide, puts into perspective how hard it is to attract non south australian talent from interstate

Love him or hate him- ripping interview with Cam Mooney I thought.

Its easy to forget his transformation between 2006 and 2007- he went from an almost wasted talent to arguably one of the best forwards in the comp in the space of 18 months- Forever getting rubbed out and failing to realise his importance in a goliath of a team, that itself took a while to realise just how good a side bomber had accumulated, to all australian and premiership player. Phenominal transformation and proves just how good a culture the likes of Harley, Scarleett and co. created in such a short space of time.

Really surprised to hear that Port were chasing him at the end of season 2002 (would have been handy in that side just quietly), and loved his openness concerning the personal guilt he carried (and still does) over the 2008 grand final.

Hated him as a player- not sure what I hated more, is arrogance and stupidity, or the fact he became so bloody good in a side that still gives me the shits :lol:, but have to say I enjoy him in the media.

Some really good episodes already this year!

The only thing Mooney was famous for was being in the right place at the right time, both at North Melbourne and Geelong, amazed that Geelong tolerated him for so long.

Tolerated? We relied on Mooney. When our midfield was a bunch of kids Mooney was thrown forward, back and into the Ruck to plug the many gaps we gad in our side.

Maybe, but he was up and down like a yo-yo.

Never rated him but I'm obviously a shithouse judge. :lol:

Kossie was alright.

True to form comes to the interview with a scrape on his head after falling of his bike.

Hard indeed, the old man still blames him for costing us the 1970 flag when he ran into Peter McKenna!

Are the episodes on you tube????
