Does anyone else remember that episode of The Footy Show where Sam is sick and tired of the style of the game during the period where it was ball up after ball up, so he drew up on a whiteboard an idea for a new set of rules where you divided the the ground up in to zones where you couldn't cross between. Everyone was laughing at him like he didn't know what he was talking about, nek minute we have zones in 2019. That surprised me to realise he really knows his shit about the game.

I think you are fantastic, funny, honest, with a heart of gold, you know what you are talking about and its not just regarding football. I love watching you on the Footy Show. I fret when Nine starts talking about letting you go. Good on you Sam. You are bloody ace. I was too young to know who you were when you played football. I like watching and listening to you and I would defend myself for telling people I like Sam Newman. 24 years I have been watching you on the Footy Show. I remember waking up after a month in ICU and asked someone who I might have know but I don't think I could remember who the person was? I wanted to know if Sam was on tonight? I had no idea what day, time, where I was or even why? I found out later what happened to me. I'm still not happy about how things turned out. It's not a happy way to be. And it wasn't my fault. Just like I say about you it's not SAMs fault so leave him alone. I wish the Professors of medicine left me alone. I would still be walking around the Tan. You are fantastic Sam:)

On a normal day he didn’t have Farmers skill, but was still too good for his Hawthorn opponent..... unless Scottie was having a great day. lol Like most past players of note these days, he is very humble about his career. The players of the 1940’s and 1950’s were never so humble.
