Wayne Carey: Premiership Cup Should Be Named After Ron Barassi

Triple M's Wayne Carey says naming the premiership cup after legendary player and coach Ron Barassi would be "a really fit reward".

“There was a conversation I reckon about a year ago about the premiership cup," he said on Triple M's Sunday Rub ahead of the Dees/Hawks clash.

"Now that’s what it’s called, our cup is just called the premiership cup."

LISTEN TO DUCK EXPLAIN:

Duck then went on to say the cup could be named after someone, and that Ron Barassi, a six-time premiership player and four-time premiership coach, would be fitting.

“The Ron Barassi Cup I think fits really well. I just think that he is that big a name in our game," he explained.

“You’ve got the Vince Lombardi Trophy in the NFL. I just think it’d be a really fit reward for Ron Barassi to have that cup named (after him)."
