Universal Love Gavin Wanganeen - Essendon Legend Confirmed

[John Kale]

100% THE most skilled footballer I've ever had the pleasure of seeing live in my entire life - also criminally forgotten/overlooked by other supporters.

Just an out and out gun.

 

[Alfred E Neuman]

check out ol sexy eyes...

so softly spoken the rest of the panel are nearly whispering back to him

Christ. He was clearly what they modelled Robert pattinson's look in Twilight.

Did he kick the sealer from 50m out when we came back from 50points down in the last quarter against Melbourne on ANZAC Day in '92??
Bloody good player and designed our best Dreamtime jumper too.

Indeed he did.

 

[NAB777]

You're talking about the 2000 side who went because of shit salary cap management... Gav was seriously the worst of any Essendon player leaving for me. Ever.

Totally gutted.

You & Sheeds alike. In fact, Sheedy is still bitter about it.

 

[Sporno 4 Pyros]

Indeed he did.

See him kick the winning goal 30 minutes into this video.

More than leaning towards Port. Tex has crossed to the dark side and won’t be returning

Yep have heard this as well, settled in SA. A friend has said that he is going to be visiting a few people at the club for a meet and greet soon. So fingers crossed that if he decides to take up footy we can make a good pitch to him.

Yes he did. Still remember that game.

Oops NAB777 beat me to it.

I used to carry a photo of him in my wallet.
True story.

I'm not kidding when i say part of me died when he left. First there was the denial that he was going then the reality he had gone. Part of me despises port Adelaide to this day

Wanganeen leaving is equal to Merv Neagle leaving for me. Couldn't eat for quite awhile after these happenings.

My fave of all time to this day.

Quite the contrary for me. Port have been as close to a second team for me as I'll get, as watching them allowed me to watch this great man play (and then Cocky + Hardwick). Loved being at the 04 GF to watch this man tear Brissy a new one. Should've won the NS.

I called him Gavin w***erneen when he left. I was hurt and didn’t know how to deal with my teenage emotions.
