    So long as you weren't pressured in to that decision.
    You are entitled to keep it completely guilt free.
    The difference between insanity and genius is measured only in success.

    I understand the sentiment there CTS, but no pressure in the decision at all - I only bought it to give it back to him, its only money...

    If anything was slightly motivated by KT Tigers getting the tshirts printed for Goodes a few years back and wish I could have contributed to that too.
    He ate more cheese, than time allowed

    I looked up your grandfather's career. One season, 15 games for 14 wins and a loss. He is the 20th century Mitch Morton.

    Well done on getting that jumper. What a brilliant reason for bidding for it.

    LOL, yep. He was very lucky. He went back to the bush to get employment after that. Back then the playing in the VFL wasn't as important as it is now and they didn't get paid. He even had to hock his premiership thing (I don't recall what they got but wasn't a medallion. It may have been a cap). An interesting fact for you. He, like many others, tried to enlist for WW1 but was rejected because his heart rate was so slow. Back then they thought that was a sign of bad health, as oppossed to being very aerobically fit as we now know.

    It's a beautiful gesture.
    Your thoughtfulness made me smile.

    AJs journey with the Swans will always be part of its legendary history .
    Good one Industrial !
    That’s awesome .

    When AJ receives his jumper from Industrial Fan I hope the Swans' website does a piece on it. Surely they would?

  10. #574
    One would certainly hope so. I would be terribly disappointed if they didn't.

  11. #575
    I just had a thought. Apart from the LARS graft that he had, what other grafts has AJ had for his first 5 reconstructions?
