We know its not about money but $5.4m is a huge profit result, in fac an AFL record. Obviously two Grand Finals helped and of course the army buying up merchandise afterwards.

My slight superstitious concern is that Jarryd Blair has taken no.11 - I think it has long been an underperforming number at the Pies or is that just me?

But with 150 years of history no big names jump out, I wonder who is on the no.11 locker apart from Mark Bayliss. It's weird the things one remembers!!!
