Tony Lockett will be inducted to the Sport Australia Hall of Fame on Australian sport’s night of nights – the sold out 33rd Sport Australia Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Gala Dinner – presented by Etihad Airways, on Thursday 12th October at Palladium at Crown, Melbourne

Established in 1985, the Sport Australia Hall of Fame plays a vital role in preserving and perpetuating Australia’s rich sporting heritage, whilst promoting the values of courage, sportsmanship, integrity, mateship, persistence, and excellence, all underpinned by generosity, modesty, pride and ambition.

2017 will mark the 33rd edition of this event, with eight Australian sporting icons, from on and off the field, to be inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame.

In addition to the eight inductees one current Member will be elevated to Legend status, becoming the official 39th Legend of Australian Sport.

About bloody time! He should be in the weight loss hall of fame as well!

Poor Plugger. He's looking a bit like Skeletor these days. Should we be referring to him now as Bony Lockett?

I must admit to be shook rigid at the first sight of the "new" Plugger. His drastic loss of weight actually concerns me. I know he was always a " bonny lad " but WOW! He does not (IMHO) look healthy.

He looks emaciated. Not a good look!

Yeah it seems a number of people are quite concerned. Fingers crossed he is okay.

Whenever I see guys who have previously had a fair bit of weight happening with them, and they lose a lot of that weight quickly, I generally look to their face and particularly the cheekbones and throat area, and I have to say that from the appearances of Pluggers gaunt cheekbones, and a shirt collar looking a couple of sizes too big for him, I (for one) am VERY worried.

find it very hard to respect somebody who has a huge love for this cruel inhumane industry of legalised animal abuse-
greyhound racing.
-Extensively documented use of live baiting to train dogs:
they use live rabbits, and other small animals
- they kill old greyhounds because they don't want to spend any money on food and ongoing flea/worming tablets and vet care
when the old dog won't earn any money

Horrible horrible horrible

And for those of you who say "oh, what about out in the wild, when animals kill each other in the circle of life?"
Well, in this instance, there is human intervention which loads the odds 100% in favour of one animal, whereas nature has
given prey a bit of a chance, with speed, agility, camouflage, etc, so at least the prey has some chance of survival.


2020 was an aberration, when we travelled twice to Adelaide and won both, beat Tigers early, beat our bogey Swans. 2021 we've returned to our old ways. Damn

Indeed, Sainternist. Glen Brown ran into him at the races in Sydney recently and took a selfie with him and a few friends. I didn't recognise the great man at first. Looked more like Peter Garrett! Bony Locket? Gold! :D :D
