The demons are celebrating 150 years as an established sports club. We believe that makes it either the oldest or pretty close to it, football sporting organisation on the planet (Sheffield FC - amateurs of round ball fame in the UK being its competitor having been established in 1857). And Bob is off to the celebrations.
All living demons have been invited to grace the 'G' prior to the Queen's Birthday round. Bob arrived from Romsey in 1977 and following a knee injury after 25 games and 46 goals - nine in one game - retired in 1981. Bob was reportedly 193 cms and 99 kgs at his peak. Maree's recollections differ but perhaps she was measuring without looking!
Bob, who will line up beside Brent Crosswell and Phil Carman as a reminder of what a potent forward line looks like, will of course carry a Broadbeach FC banner. Enjoy the day Bob.
