Thanks again mcadam05.

I will certainly enjoy this, as I have your other vids, as someone who witnessed TB’s debut and great career afterwards.

I just hope my enjoyment is not diminished by that other thread where it is suggested, much to my surprise, that the Saints aren’t really my club after all and that these players are really just income chasing renegades strutting their stuff to indulge the desires of the corporate suits.

Of course TB forewent a fair whack of his income in the interests of the club he purported to love but hey, let’s not let that get in the way

[B W and R all over]

Thanks for that.

I still remember the day he died, Tim Watson announcing it on seven news in tears.

Outstanding post. Just watched all 5 videos and it brought a tear to the eye. This is what makes our club great! Strentgh Through Loyalty.

Thanks for the vids mcadam05

It makes you understand that the lastest bad press means nothing

[st_Trav_ofWA]

i reckon mcadam05 needs to be upgraded to legend status

[I Love Peter Kiel]

Love ya Barks!

[Enrico_Misso]

Fantastic links.
So many menories - good and bad.
Such a champion.
Was always our heir apparent.
Still grieving for Barks.

"Dad, I gave it my best shot"

maybe it's time the club did a new tribute to Trev

just reiterate what he stood for and and drum up a little publicity for the TB Foundation

[skeptic]

i quite like my idea actually.

who would be the best person from the club to e-mail?

I'm glad you like your idea.

Barks is already held in high regard by the club.

The B&F award is named after him.
The Trevor Barker Beach Oval is a landmark.

[skeptic]

Bernard,

Far be it from me to suggest that he's not or that the club is forgetting about him or anything like that

the B&F, the TB oval and his foundation are all things that despite strongly carrying on his legacy, happened a while ago now.

He's such a part of what this club represents that I think it'd be nice to just have an ocassion like a fundraiser for the TB foundation and reiterate what it is that he stood for.

It would be good to pay respects (again) and also share the story with the kids growing up that perhaps were too young to get the TB legacy.

Would be nice for the club to do something positive in the wake of all the negativity out there

Thanks for the vids.

For someone like myself, who was to young to remember his passing and the legacy he left at the club during his playing days. Its nice to pay homage to Trevor and his loyalty to the club and pass on the tale of the great man to the younger generation to instill our motto of fortius quo fidelius.

Thank you so much mcadam05. Brought some tears, but feel so proud that Barks was and always be an inspirational part of this great club.
