Match Reports are written immediately after the game and are a representaion of what happened on and off the field. Other information such as players, reserves, points and scorers are also included along with previous game reports from matches against that team with photographs and videos if available.
The Keith web site has been online since Torch got the domain name in 1997 and threw me a Microsoft Frontpage disc and said "do something with this will ya".
One of the things I 'did' with the site was to take game and after match photos. The web statistics showed the top 60 downloaded for the last ten years (which can be seen here) of which I asked you, loyal visitors, to decide which one you think is the best ever Keith photo.
The votes are in and the winner, by a small margin, is this action shot taken at Bob Deans Fields vs Marist-Albion featuring Perry Scarlett with blurry appearances with John Luxton and Adam Johnston from this album.
Thanks to all that voted.
Also, voting is still open to win a date with an Irishman.
I was checking the stats for the web site, and went through the most popular photographs from the last ten years.
The photos on the following page were the most downloaded from 2003 - 2012 but I thought it would be fun to see which is the most popular Keith photo ever.
The photos are grouped in no particular order in rows of 5. Please select your favourite from each row and submit your answer.
The top 12 will be voted on in a couple of weeks to decide the very best/most popular Keith photo.
