Time now for a different role within AFL for me, working more closely with Commission, after 20 seasons as media manager. This account will be way less interesting going forward,if in fact it ever was interesting. Go to @NadineRabah25 or @AFL_House from now for day2day news.

@DanielCherny Early 1974 - WA think they have plenty of quicks and sends an injured Dennis Lillee to SA in exchange for an aging Ian Chappell, who still has some quality leadership years and likes batting on fast tracks. SA need someone / anyone to take the new ball and they hope DK gets fit.

@SpallieraL Weekes averaged nearly 59 with 15 tons from only 48 Tests across a decade with less Test cricket. On 80/90s number of matches he makes 11k runs with 40 odd hundreds. Old West Indians just raved about him & lucky enough to meet him on 1991 tour, so Curtly respectful of history.

A huge turnout today for the celebration to remember Michael Turner. Karen, Levi & Che did an amazing job to remember the husband, father and grandfather who left an amazing imprint on the game. Congrats too to Brian Taylor for all his work behind the scenes for the family.

RT @stkildafc: "I was in tears...it was like winning the Grand Final." Georgie Day is the heart and soul of St Kilda.

@njay49 Couple of tough Grand Final losses in his first two seasons, but did end Port’s run of 6 in a row in the 1960 prelim.

Alan Killigrew born on this day in 1919. State player with St Kilda around the War years who coached in the VFL, SANFL & WAFL. Coached before his time on inclusion (and passion) and his views about the game are one of my favourite quotes about what a club means to its fans.

Neale Daniher is an extraordinary person and a fantastic selection as 2025 Australian of the Year, for his work to find a cure for MND. Congrats to Neale and all the other nominees recognised in Canberra this evening. #FightMND
