Gosh! I wonder if I've been Wiki ed....
And probably not is the reply. Well done neil.

Don't know about Melbourne but father Matt played for Footscray, uncle Mark for Collingwood and Essendon.

I have a feeling Hanner's father played VFL for a short while.... I remember quite recently one of the older game callers referring to him as Bruce, they tend to hark back to 'muscle memory' with names at times, like Mark for Jared .... which I am sure is Hanner's father's name.

Was watching on NITV a couple of weeks ago a show called 'The Wanderers - A football Journey' which had the likes of Michael Long, Sid Jackson,' Polly' Farmer and some others that I hadn't heard of when in the background of one of the interviews the Melbourne Football Club list came up and there was a Hannebery on it. Didn't catch the initial but could that have been a relative of Dan's?
