Photo mystery

[The Who]

This photo on the back page of today's Telecrap shows DCE wearing No. 1 jersey. Can someone explain this to me?
Is the photo manipulated and, if so, why?

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Not DCE, it's Croker I think and not No 1 but ...?

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Yeah Crokes in 14

Yes. You are correct. It is Froggy not DCE.
Mystery solved.

What a relief. Brookie oval is not the grassy knoll.

I would have thought the lack of neck was the first give-away.

Mate, I read in the paper today that the NRL has advertised for people to train for positions in the bunker .... with that howler you are a shoo-in ...

to be fair The who always has trouble identifying people.
Hence the name Who?

I was about to check "frame 312" from the 4 Pines CCTV system.

Why are people so unkind....
In my defence: the headline and article were about DCE, and the receding hairline and hair colour is similiar to DCE. But, as has been pointed out, the lack of a giraffe neck should have alerted me.

It could be worse, at least Croker used to be a half.

I think it is DCE and he has 1m on his back.

Mate, it's Croker.

Sheesh



(lolololol)


Also, what's a newspaper?

 

[Once Was Brissie Kid]

More of a mystery is what happened to the concrete walkway tunnel that once cut through the Brookie hill, why was it filled in and what is now inside it?

Can see the tunnel at 20 seconds here in this 1978 game.

Threw me for a second as rd 18 was a bye, so 'technically' it was rd 22, not 21 (so the internet says).

My guess is that there is cold beer and hot meat pies inside that now covered tunnel which is why it's impossible to get any at the actual game.

Er, as for a serious answer, you'll need to find someone older and more australia based.

Nice pick up though.

A bunker.

It was still there in 1986. Visible in the opening crowd shot here.

1994 at 20:56 looks to me that it is gone.
