Douglas Woods and Michael Hogarth
Jade BENHAM (Mildura) (10:19): Mildura recently lost two legends: Douglas ‘Woodsie’ Woods of Woodsies, the infamous gem shop, one of our family’s favourite places in Mildura, and Michael ‘Hungry’ Hogarth, who lost his battle with the beast earlier this month. Mick was a legend in the Sunraysia sporting community, winning eight football premierships and the Innes Medal three times as Sunraysia’s best cricketer. In a divine stroke, his beloved Imperials won the 2024 Sunraysia Football Netball League premiership during the break, a poetic way to send Mick off. Vale, Mick and Woodsie, two incredible Mildura legends.
