Look up contrary in the dictionary, and scottys name is there. Yo uhave to like him though
He's a different kind of cat altogether to be sure.
Not sure about having to like him though....In his playing days he was one of the most dis-liked & despised players by opposition supporters going around....My brother (A Norf Flog) hated him with a passion & would scrawl expletives all over his footy card pictures.
Though that level of hate that he engendered from opposition flogs merely endeared him to me all the more.... I liked him, though at times would shrink away in embarrassment at some of the things he said & did.
Still the best Captain we've ever had & yes, that includes Luke Hodge....When all others were hanging their heads in despair at 3/4 time in the 1971 Grand Final, It was Scotty's single-minded determination & self-belief, which carried us over the line that day....No doubt about it.....His words to the playing group after Kennedy's resigned address are now legend.
