Hi All
I was doing a clean out at home last week and came across my premiership medals from Mt Barker's time in the South Coast Association. My curiosity was raised to look up the old club and see how it was travelling. We started strong. A couple of women's premierships and four men's premierships in the first four years of having men's teams at the club. Not bad for a young club! This was followed by a hard grand final defeat by Port Adelaide in the club's first year in the Adelaide competition. John Z can tell you about that. I expect his shoulder is still sore from being taken out behind the play by the Port fullback.
I see John is still around and Mick Fox. Are there any others at the club from those days? Barry and Peter White, Rod Hartvigsen, Dave Dempsey, Jim Delaine and the others. I see Brett Sims is still there from the juniors then.
I am in Queensland now and still play even though the knees do not like it much.
Best of luck with the season.
Cheers
Ian
