Daniel Andrews became Labor leader two months after we won the 2010 flag.

He's resigned three days before the Grand Final :shock:

IFFF you add Nick Maxwell's number and Tony Shaw's number you get 27, which is the same number Murray Weideman wore in 1958, added together you get 54. add that to the #1 of Lou Richards in '53 = 55, #1 of Harry Collier in '36, #8 of Collier in '35 = 64, 3x #7 of Syd Coventry in '27, '28, '29, plus Syd's #9 in 1930 takes us to 94, add Con McCarthy's #14 from '19 and we get 108, 1917's Percy Wilson's #24 gives us 132, throw in '10s George Angus' #1, and 2x 02-03's Lardie Tulloch's #18 and it all equals 169, divide that by Darcy Moore's #30 and the whole number part of what results is the same as the number of goals kicked by Essendon in the 1990 GF.
Get back on top.
