North Port and Lum you will be pleased to know that former Camberwell full forward from the mid 70s to early 80s Gary Happy Hammond will be this weeks guest on the vfl hour (Sunday Bloody Sunday) segment on Thursday night. I will confirm it tomorrow.
No doubt he will have some great stories talking about the 1979 2nd Division flag as well as some of the tough full backs he has encountered.
Here is the Top 10 from A Todd Medal (Reserves best and Fairest)

Perhaps NorthPort can set this up as a poll, but I'd like to know what the fans think about Grand Final night - 7.10pm start or a 7.40pm start - what would your preference be?
Personally I'm a bit worried, I think they've done a good thing in reducing the time between the TAC and VFL games, but 7.10 is very early on a Friday night. Will people from Ballarat and district be keen to drive down on a Friday night?? They will have to leave work early if they do.
I'd prefer 4.45pm TAC Cup and 7.45pm VFL. Thoughts?
