Big H use to dominate in the ruck during the late 80's. Absolutely gun won roughly 3-4 best & fairest.

Best I have seen as well, 60 possessions is a fair old day, probably 80 hitouts also.

Cheers mate. Don't remember him from the junior days but yes I could imagine he would have been a fair junior player. Ripper guy and still attends a lot of Pacco games after helping out in previous years. And what's even better is he does it to help friends involved and to give some of his knowledge back.

Found out this morning that Big H is the uncle of Bloomfield. Maybe he taught him a thing or to about being a ruckman.
On the father son thing. I believe OP have 5-6 running around.
Pascu
Bloomfield
Hemmens
Cox
Peart x 2
Vernon
Maybe more

Read Bigfooty from time to time but never post. On this occasion I feel I should post a response.

WFC did secure Shannon by means of employment which was organised by a sponsor of the club. We also gave him match payments, a small sign on, and bailed him out on some money he owed his previous club Deer Park, (a significant amount)
The club has bent over backwards to accommodate this bloke and have done everything and more that was promised.
After 4 games he has decided to jump ship and play down the bush so he can once again get another sign on and big money for match payments, mind you and still be In the job that WFC provided for him.
Shannon was brought to the club to work with the junior players and have his experience rub off on them, so for that we are pleased he has moved on as this experience has highlighted that we as a club would not want Shannon's character or lack thereof rubbing off on our kids.
I actually feel more sorry for our coach who "DID" have a long term friendship with, but obviously Shannon rates $$ over loyalty and long term mates.
From a club perspective this is well and truly been put to bed, our club will learn from it and continue to try and bring in quality people and develop our juniors, rather than bring in selfish individuals with no integrity or morals.
This will only jell everyone closer and make us as a club stronger!
