I would just about doubt that anyone in the AFL could bench 240kg. When doing some coaching at the Lions, the bench press records were on the wall.

It was said to be St Kilda's strength last year, having an even list with few poor players. It was also a b...

I remember that game. Although I've never actually seen it. I was listening to it on the radio in the car as a 10 year old whilst my family was visiting friends. I didn't want to get out of the car. It was really exciting yet it's the second game I remember crying about afterwards. The first was whe...

Yes, I'm still mourning. The first week after the GF was terrible lying awake at night thinking about all the 'what ifs' that could have happened during the game. I still do think about it now and have not been able to watch a replay of the GF. I don't think I ever will. I have many of the 2009 on a...
