Stuart Anderson is going to play with Bayswater this season and Nicky Winmar is playing at Scoresby.

Back in the 80's so many players from the eastern districts were bombers. Vanders, Salmon, Williams, Banfield, Bradbury, Walsh
etc, pretty impressive mob, the eastern districts has always produced good footballers, I wish we had the zoning back.
