Looking through the Telecrap this week with their nostalga pictures a few things came to mind on things that aren't done in grand finals that I miss.
The first is the players running out in numerical order with the captain first.
I used to really love that anticipating if the would walk out, jog or sprint it.
The other is the chairing of the captain or long standing player. I don't remember the last time I saw a player chaired off the field. I didn't see it when Menzies retired. It would have been fitting.
