    He played for both teams but a lot of guys have. Terry Daniher, Neville Fields, Merv Neagle to name three.

    I think he played for both clubs. From memory, an angry little man.
    Back to tonight, Stringer is the one who worries me most. An average player most times but seems to grow an extra leg when he plays us. Did this at the Doggies and now at the bombers. One for us to watch. Peter Wright with his height could be dangerous too. Maybe that's why Melican is listed in the emergencies with potential for late inclusion - between Stringer, Wright and Hooker, we might be one KP back short?

    No idea, but I find it a curious choice to have a cup named after a player who was once suspended for biting an opponent's testicles.

    Filandia was playing for Port Melbourne when he did that.

    Not sure but apparently ONLY Foxsports use this name. They have named matches with players who have played both teams. However, rather than picking the biggest names they have lots of strange choices. Humour?

    In the past FOX have referred to this as the Ryan O'Connor cup.

    Funny sense of humour. Blakey actually works hard....you can't rewrite history just because you don't like someone.

    I don't get the dislike for Blakey, the boy will be a star.

    I saw that in today's HS. I almost swore out loud at work then bit my tongue. This guy is unbelievable!
