Fingers crossed he can overcome it again.

Awful news about Jarryd Roughead,he's suffered a recurrence of melanoma.

Canavan scored 1-2 in the league final,0-8(3 from play)in the 95 semi final and also got a goal in Clones the following year.I think he may have scored a goal in the 95 league semi final,though I'm not sure on that.But there's no doubt that over the years McKeever was able to hold him very well.

Ardboe and Carmen through to the minor final tonight.

Hodge not having much luck this season.Hawks will miss his leadership.Roughead has resumed light training though,not sure when he's expected back.They have Richmond this weekend,who have a very good recent record again Hawthorn .Will be interesting to see how they respond after last week's tanking.

Luke Hodge out for 4-6 weeks with a knee injury.

I would be very happy to see him doing that celebration again in Celtic Park!

Going on league form this looks like a straightforward win for us.But we will see a different Derry team on May 22.They'll be eating the changing room doors to get at us.We have never won in Celtic Park before and We'll do very well to get out of it with a win.

Is it too early to start giving the Derry wans bad manners?

I was in the Jungle as well,great memories indeed.They were few and far between in those years.

Yeah they weren't a good side.They had the German keeper Illner and Pierre Littbarski.Cant recall who else they had.

Was at that Cologne game.They went into the 2nd leg 2-0 down.If my memory serves me correctly Cologne were at or near the bottom of the league at that time.

Yeah,that was a great game between the Crows and Swans.Hawthorn next for Adelaide.The Hawks performance against St.Kilda wouldn't do on Friday night.

Aerlik where are you with your reports??

2 very good games today.Should be a good final.Hard luck to Monaghan,they can be proud of their performance.
