My GF due to give birth in the next few weeks. I said to her, whoever wins the Norm Smith is who I want to name the baby after. (Jokingly of course... or maybe not).
Anyway, Bobby Hill gets up and takes the medal. My last name is Fisher.

Yes, well this would have changed my plans.

I was ready for this possibility. Had Pendles gotten up, that would have been a tough one as my brothers name is Scott.
Anyway, I've still got to convince the Mrs about this. 3 weeks to go.
