This season we witnessed the very rare and significant milestone of 250 games being reached twice within a few rounds when club legends Peter Harrison and Michael Duggan notched up the major milestone earlier this season. Both these club stalwarts announced their retirements after the Reserves semi final loss last weekend.
With Peter now a dad and Michael to follow very soon we wish them all the very best as they enter the next exciting phase of their life. They now 3rd and 4th respectively on the clubs all times games played list. Who knows they might even add to those tallies with a few guest appearances in the more relaxed surrounds of the 3rds or clubbies (or even the Supers) next season and beyond. Both players were awarded Life Membership in 2012 and a summary of their achievements over a long period of service is listed below.
