Thanks Larabee. Jamie's work is awesome. I purchased a copy of the 2017 painting and it hangs proudly in our house. I saw it in the Superstore when we were buying somethat one is called Tigers Dream Scene - 50 Years at the MCG by Jamie Cooper, who also did the Tigers Team of the Century Painting:

Jamie's done a lot of footy paintings as well as for Major League Baseball and European football clubs.
Here is the 2017 GF team, with Peggy, Benny and Richo:

Wondered that myself. ... Apparently it's supposed to be Francis and you're correct about Rowlings.Some would be ToC but not all
That‘s Jimmy Jess on the left - and Laurie Fowler cleaning up Big Nick in the background
Mauricle Rioli is there - not sure about No 22 but looks like Barry Rowlings
Others I’m not sure of such as the bloke being tackled by Knights
No worries Ossie.Thanks Larabee. Jamie's work is awesome. I purchased a copy of the 2017 painting and it hangs proudly in our house. I saw it in the Superstore when we were buying some
footy gear for my son and daughter and I kept coming back looking at it, before taking the plunge!
I bought a small reprint copy of the Tigers dream scene from the Market and have been trying to name all of the players. The Team of the Century painting looks great also. I was wondering if Jamie will do a painting of the 2019 triumph.
Thanks very much Larabee. Yes the attention to detail is what caught my eye. I kept going back noticing how Jamie had captured the moments, although I hadn't noticed the ice pick before! Love the Power Ranger toy in Dion's hand!No worries Ossie.
He does some great stuff, and his attention to detail - note the ice pick in Dimma's hand. A reference I assume to the famous Mt Everest theme for the 2017 GF.
Had a look at his gallery on his website - no mention of a 2019 painting

The SOL has well and truly expired so do tell how Jeromey Webberley was “as important as anyone else in us winning those flags” in 2017 & 2019. The guy who played 16 games over 3 seasons from 2010 to 2012. I gotsta know!There is an argument that he is as important as anyone else in us winning those flags. When the statute of limitations is up I'm sure it will come out one day, but don't underestimate his off-field influence.
