In fact, Fish became eligible for life membership, along with Simmo and Waite, when he completed his eighth AFL season with us in 2010. The eligibility criteria are set; play for eight seasons and you’re a life member.
It is good to see Fish back at the club. I remember being disappointed that he didn’t get to chalk up his 100th game but, looking back on it now, it would have been wrong to gift him a game when his form didn’t warrant selection.
It was interesting and entertaining to watch the video of Fish and Jamo on the club website. I had gained the impression that Jamo’s departure was fraught so it was good to see him back at the club and in good spirits. It seems to me that the club has a focus on engaging with past players and that’s a good thing.
Anyway, I hope Fish does well in his coaching role.
