He went for the Saints, could've been drafted by first the Swans and then the Hawks.

Yay i win again, i think someone else can have my question though, i've run out lol!

I think Hawthorn was one of them.

Interesting question.....When i met him (i'm not bullshitting, i actually did have a beer with Millaine on 2 occasions in the late 80s) he told me he barracked for Collingwood. However i have since read that he went for StKilda and i think he was just trying to be nice to a Collingwood supporter. He was tied to the Swans and Hawthorn before becoming a Collingwood superstar.

Just imagine the Hawthorn side of the late 80's with Millane in it!!!

Ray. This is only a guess but I'm thinking Ricky Barham or Ray Shaw.

Nope, he was nowhere near as good as those two.

I'll say Graeme Anderson. :wink: I seem to recall it being between the wing and half forward when the siren went.
