Syd Armstrong, Bob Hannah tremendous workers and great people. Syd for bringing anything we threw out back into the Club - you might need this one day! Bob for being at the Club from 9am to presentation of awards on home games, would sometimes be a little drunk by 7pm. Doug Peake for his great coaching and work. Let's not forget the Buswells, Hoskings, Gibsons and great players who made our Club what it is today.
