Bombers farewell Stan Booth
It is with sadness that Essendon Football Club announces the passing of former player Stan Booth. Born in 1933, Booth played 102 games for Essendon between 1952 and 1959 and he kicked 118 goals in that time as a fast moving, elusive rover who usually rested on a half forward flank.

Camporeale to see specialist on Wednesday
