That would have to be one of the best documentaries I have ever seen. Who else cried?

Thank you to the Rose family for sharing your lives for the past 50 years with your Collingwood Family, I hope you'll continue to be part of my life.

This coming season should be dedicated to the Roses. How great a man was Bob ? I feel humble to have his name associated with our club.

RIP Bob and Robert.

Damn, I missed it. I totally forgot about it, and stayed out to about 11 last night. Whoops!

Yes, Proud Pies, I did.

My brother David played against Bobby when he was capt/coach of Wangaratta Rovers in the Ovens and Murray League. Dave played on the wing for Myrtleford. He told me recently of the first time he came up against him in a match.

Here was his chance to make a name for himself. Shirtfront Bobby Rose !!

Well the shirtfront happened but, as his team-mates informed him when he regained consciousness, Bobby ran through him like he wasn't there and kicked a goal from 70 yards out.

Can't believe it was ten years ago. I remembered the day of his passing. I never saw him play or even met him, but so many have told me that he was the greatest player Collingwood has ever seen and he personified what Collingwood was.

RIP champ
