Jack Sinclair's Grandaddy?

Post: # 1682339Post Sainternist »

I just heard Mark Fine on SEN say that he thought Brian Gleeson (Brownlow Medal winning Saint) is the grandfather of Jack Sinclair.

Can anyone confirm this?

By Jove, Jack is really starting to come of age lately. I thought he was very good again today.

Aaaaaaah - "Bill" Gleeson.
Good to see some pedigree, but I suspect Bill Gleeson wouldn't' be quite in Brian Gleeson's class :D

I also vaguely remember Matt Maguire supposedly being related to a former Saints champ but was never able to confirm who it was???

That is certainly an A++ grade StKilda pedigree.
I reckon Matt was almost on track to match him till that fateful day at Docklands.
