Russell Ebert Oam

A hand pass out of the pack Without needing to look back Holding the premiership cup up high A banner proclaiming God to run by Four Margery Medals around his neck If he was playing a sure fire bet Six best and fairest for Port Adelaide A club that bred success that couldn’t fade Russell Ebert was a legend of South Australian sport Who shared himself with us without a thought For he is one for the ages now A beloved player who knew how. © Paul Warren Poetry
