I never understood why he had soo much say in a game. He could basically tell a ref his job and the ref, would a lot of the time simply accept it and play it Cams way.
I actually think Melbourne will benefit in the short term at least from his departure as when Harry Grant is fit, he will set that side alight.FVCK CANCER

great game manager, no doubt one of the best, but I’m struggling to remember big highlights that the likes of slater,johns,Lewis, Freddy and some of the other greats have that come to mind straight away. I suppose he made his teammates look really good by always doing his job.
he won plenty of matches near the death with his goal kicking, field goals, and pulled of some great general kicks that turned games, but I think his biggest attribute was that I can’t remember him playing a bad or quiet game.
that’s what makes him truly great.

Can’t regard him as the greatest or most skilled player, however as mentioned by many one of the best game managers and does whatever it takes to guide his team to victory.
Every team needs a C Smith as much as they need an A John’s or a Fittler.

Not sure what Andy Murray thought of his one - At least they pretty much nailed The Beatles one in Liverpool -even if they are rather tall

Slater and Smith? LOL. Only good thing about 'em is that I won't have to see their smug faces when I visit the ground 'coz there's zero likeness.

Lucille Ball and Doris Day were the glamours of their days but gees their statues especially Lucille Ball's are shockers,
Surely especially nowadays they can have life like statues - It must be really embarrassing going to your statue unveiling and they or you pull off the cover to display a statue that looks nothing like you or is so grotesque you would end up buying it and having it removed permanently.
