    I had an image of him sitting around, watching the State of Origin with some old league mates on Wednesday night and turning to one and saying;
    "You know, they're going to announce tomorrow that Brandon's getting his first game."
    "So that'll be 2 of your kids playing in the AFL?"
    "Yep!"
    "Aww geez, where did you go wrong? You and your wife aren't cousins or something are you?"
    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

    How excitement. Saw a bit of the Ressies game before Geelong match and BJ was slippery and enthusiastic that night.

    Will be great to see if comes up at the top level.

    Just turned 19. Looks like a natural to me. Hope he is good enough to play 300 games.

    How time flies, I forgot about that. Its shortly going to become The Famous Jack Bros from the Sydney Swans, whose father used to play rugby league. Not son of rugby league great Gary Jack.
