Former Brownlow Medal champion and Victorian batsman Peter Bedford is 73. Yesterday he filled in for the Malvern fourths in @SubbiesCricket . He��s a bloody marvel.

How about mighty Magpie Alex Woodward? Returns from a fourth ACL to play eight VFL games and jag 16 JJ Liston Trophy votes....

Here's the last ball of that Dandenong District Turf 4 grand final, when Springy South's Adam Read whacked the last ball of the match for six. Mind the fruity language.

Craig McRae was VFL coach of the year in 2019. And he may well be the AFL coach of the year in 2022. Love every bit of his rise to the Pies.
