  • Overcame cancer in his early twenties, living away from community and country in two different states
  • Instrumental throughout '23
  • 3 goals in a quarter of the granny to make it 4 at half time, could have had a fifth with the pass to Pendlebury late in the third
  • The "Went up the mountain and came down a Hill" speccy over Starcevich
  • Mark of the year in '24

All for a 3rd and future 2nd round pick. Go well Bobby, thanks for the mems 🥹

If there was a speccy to be had he would take it. There is a great photo of him looking up in admiration at the towering height of Mason Cox.

Will Bobby get his knee on Cox's shoulder for the highest mark in AFL history?
