"Pft! Silly water-bird! You cannot be telling the king what to do! What are you doing anyway? Shouldn't you be doing something stupidy dangerous right now?" Now leave before I authorize lethal force." Skipper commanded again. "Bleh! The fish! It is so horrible! It is like poison to my taste buddies!!" He started scraping his tongue off with his paws. "Ooh! Cake!" He wiped off a little bit of icing and ate it off his finger.and his face immediately twisted in disgust. Ignoring him, Julien trotted up to the cake. "Ringtail! Get your royal rump out of my HQ!" Skipper commanded. "Oh! Are we having a party!? Why did you not invite the party king?! Maurice! Bring me my boomy box! Let's get this party started!" "Hello! Slap-happy penguins!" Julien said dropping down into the HQ, Maurice and Mort following behind. However, I just do not like celebrating my birthday. "I understand that it's my birthday, and you three feel as though you need to celebrate. "Private! Doesn't that joke never get old with you?" "No buts, Kowalski!" Skipper said cutting him off. "Boys! I told you not to make a big deal out of today!" Skipper exclaimed. He lit the candle with it and the three of them said simultaneously: "Make a wish, Skipper!" "Killjoy." Rico muttered hacking up a box of matches. Rico regurgitated a flamethrower to light the candle on the cake with and Kowalski knocked it out of his hand and gave him a hard stare. "Happy Birthday, Skipper!!!" Private said cheerily.īefore Skipper got the chance to say anything, Rico placed another party hat on his head as Private pulled Skipper by the flipper to the table Kowalski had set the cake on. "SURPRISE!!!!!!" Skipper jumped as Kowalski, Private, and Rico emerged from the lab wearing party hats. He poised himself for combat and flung the door open. He stealthily crept to the door and listened carefully. Where were his men? All of the sudden, he heard a rustling noise coming from inside Kowalski's lab.
He immediately felt the emptiness of the HQ, that's when he looked up to see empty bunks. Oliver is the best mid I've seen at the club (apologies to Hassa one of my heroes growing up but the memory is fading) & well on the way to being an absolute champion of the game.Skipper woke up and got out of his bunk.
This list shows where we've been since '64 & why.we've lacked real star power. not very many.Īnd IMO, is a very big reason why we have not won a AFL/VFL Premiership Cup, within that time frame.
These Mids listed above, are all our best since the mid 60's. Likely to be on this list in a couple more years: Gus and HarmesĪnd look at this list from another perspective. Had courage and a damaging kick on the run.Ĩ) Nathan Jones - we all know he's a hard worker, but he's also very elusive for a bloke who's not exceptionally quick.ĩ) Shane Woewodin -OK, the haters are going to hate, but his 2000 year was inspiring and we did make the GF largely because of him.ġ0) Andrew Obst - a tremendous work ethic over a number of years and better in traffic than Sugar Healy IMO. He's our Joel Selwood.ħ) Stephen Tingay - when he was hot during the early 90s, so were we.

Made everyone walk taller when he played.Ĥ) Greg Wells - an unbelievable mark for his size and he didn't even have a leap - just great at positioning his body.ĥ) Stan Alves - one of the first to realise the importance of fitness and out on his wing, he found space.Ħ) Jack Viney - if he can keep injury free then he'll climb up the order. Could do anything, just watch any state game highlights.Ģ) Clayton Oliver - only a small sample, but his past two years have been huge and he's getting more confident in taking the game on.ģ) Todd Viney - a bit wonky with his kicking at times, but grunt work was exceptional. My 10 best Dee mids I've seen (which dates back to 1971) are:ġ) Robbie Flower - Kept our club alive with hope in the 70s and early 80s. I also remember more of Willow as our gifted umpy-appealing forward, even though he was a pure mid for his Brownlow year with us and flipped spots a bit. Also left out on a positional basis were Adam Yze, Steven Febey (best work as half back), Brett Lovett (same) and Glenn Lovett (half forward). Gerard Healy's final year at our club in 1985 was Oliver-esque but much of his early years were spent as a forward, so i've left him out of my list below, but he's the only other player who can be mentioned in the same breath as these guys. Garry would never have seen Ronald Dale or Brian Dixon and I doubt he saw Stan Alves or Greg Wells in demon colours, so there's really only one player ahead of him and it's already been pointed out that 'Tulip' Robbie Flower was very much an outside mid. I didn't hear Lyon, but if he rated Oliver the best he's seen at Deeland, then he's pretty much on the money in my opinion.
