Rip you legend

My father's uncle was Joe Murdoch who played 1927 - 1936. 180 games for Richmond. He had the famous rumble with Gordon Coventry of Collingwood.

[@michaelcarter7387]

A real Aussie !

[@jakartaman3365]

Aussie expat here. Ditto that, mate.

[@vaughanvandabilt6709]

I have arrived reincarnated

[@underdog1ssrr]

what is the music playing?

[@Gezza1967]

I just asked my Mrs and she said it's probably an Australian composer, perhaps modern classical? That's the music at the start. The next piece of music is probably an old war song. Though no idea what name or who sorry.

[@jhas888]

Can hear a lot of that stuff coming from Kearney's new apartment on Sundays. Yeah, the Longford Senior Citizens Pipe and Brass Centenary Band. For Tigerland, he does the vocal ... solo.

[@planetX15]

Gez, Just out of curiosity, which team do you follow? Excellent channel you have!

[@Gezza1967]

[@kurtflahavin5994]

Go the mighty pies!!. Great choice Gezza.

Come on next 🍟🍟have a chip you FErs

[@jhas888]

Savour the interviewer's refined elocution ... Eton out of Longford. Not identified, but for sure It's either Kearney or Laurence Olivier.

[@johnnymarlin1283]

If there is one guy you would want in the trenches more than anyone else, it would he captain blood as stuff as nails !!

@@riewoldt12 i don't know mate. Im a former soldier and i don't think it's fair to shame men for choosing not to go to war.

[@sentimentalbloke185]

@@markharrison6498 Dyer was a copper during WW2, which was a reserved occupation. He couldn't join up unless he quit the force.

@@sentimentalbloke185 the person I was responding to was calling jack a coward

[@sentimentalbloke185]

@@markharrison6498 I kinda figured that, but I can't see the comment. Just thought I'd chip in & explain why a lot of players didn't go to war, Tigers had a lot of guys in reserved occupations, such as old Jack.
