Ha! I'd love to have a beer with The Dude! A White Russian, actually. Just don't piss on my Collingwood rug!

Ricky Barham. Not actually on debut, but in the game in which he started on the ground for the first time. Hawks unfurled the premiership flag, Barham played on Eade and destroyed him, and the Pies who had finished bottom the year before had a good win. |
I was there that day at Princess Park. Ricky Barham played some brilliant games, but chronic hamstring injuries cut short his career. |
Ahhh, I see. That's just the short form of your user name. The full form is "5 from the wing on debut* [*not really debut]".
Thanks for the info. (I see that it was game number 3 for Barham.)

May I ask: which one is you in the 1982 picture?
(I'd like to say you haven't aged one bit, but...)

Fantastic read Rude a amazing life story
I'm sure like many here on nicks and fans pies in general stories like this link life and love of Collingwood
Joffa has a awesome back story as well which I wasn't fully aware of until his appearance on open mike
I'm sure there are many other great stories on how life has taken us on roads less travelled to places we never dreamed of and to meet people we only has heard or seen of on TV etc
Thanks for sharing mate very much appreciated
