Glenn Kilpatrick?

Gotta have some standards. Haven’t got…who was that guy who played for four clubs and went in that deal?
Anyway, haven’t got him either. Or Raines or Richardson.
I’m sure I’ve forgotten some pretty big names of the last 30 odd years though.

Fair shout putting Greg Anderson in there, was a top player and was devo when he left for the Crows. Cost him a premiership, probably would’ve been in that side ahead of Paul Hills, the man who took over his #11

Yep. Comfortably.

A few changes:

Dean Solomon in the backline. I’d shift McPhee in as a forward.
Rick Olarenshaw in for Melksham (debatable I guess).
Merv Neagle in for Heffernan.
I’d go Craig O’brien above Moorcroft.

I’d forgotten about Neagle to Sydney!
Fair calls.
I’d take some shifting on Moorcroft but that’s a personal thing.

That team needs some Kepler Bradley . On the wing of course

Bit stiff to leave out Super Ted Richards from that backline as well

Salmon, madden, Ryder, Cummings, merrett, Carlisle, Jenkins…

That’s a lot of quality talls :frowning:

Ted Richards as well.

I’d have Mark Johnson in that team somewhere as well

Good point. Get Houli the fark outta there for MJ

Agree on Mark Johnson and Ted Richards. I’d forgotten Mark Johnson had played for Freo.

Does Milne qualify? Never drafted by us, but played 50 ess reserve games.

Derek Kickett

Definitely.
And thanks for reminding me that it was Dale I meant earlier.

Okay?

Barry Davis HBF
Alan Noonan CHF (Richmond in his last year in vfl)
I had their numbers on my jumper as a kid.

Johnny Williams CHB all Australian, 3rd in Brownlow. (Went to Collingwood)
Paul Sproule deserves a spot too.

There probably should be two teams.

Have a best 22 of players we lost vs best 22 of players we traded in.

Will have missed some old players. Interstate transfers would change it dramatically.
