New: Who Am I Series!

[Its All Goodes]

long before Norm Jr played for hawthorn, he played for south melbourne, won a best and fairest and was leading goalkicker in 1974

but seeing as you at least guessed the right family I will let you have a shot

 

[CharlieG]

Reckon we ought to get this back onto the Swans...

 

[Fishfinger]

This isn't going to test many but it's all I can think of .

Probably could have played cricket for Australia. Managed to combine cricket for Victoria and football for the Swans. Had silky skills and achieved great heights personally.

Knew it wouldn't take long.
All yours Robbie.

While I'm here, good luck this year. Especially to Stuey Maxfield who was my favourite player at Richmond.

 

[robbieando]

Who am I?

I'm mainly known as a defender, but I loved to kick a few goals and in fact once was leading goalkicker at the club?

 

[Its All Goodes]

Bernard Toohey?

Warwick Armstrong.

 

[CharlieG]

I am a former Swans player whose role in AFL football is important yet little known. I am currently connected with another red and white organisation. Another member of my family also played for the club.

Damn it... mine only lasted 10!

Your turn. In the meantime, I'm going to come up with the most obscure one I possibly can!

 

[Benevolent Ert]

OK - let's try this one - probably still too easy

I am the father of a current AFL "young gun"
If I had played only 7 more games for the Swans my son would now be wearing the red and white

 

[robbieando]

Pfff easy Ray Ball father of Luke Ball

 

[Benevolent Ert]

All yours Robbie

 

[robbieando]

Who am I??

With my first and only kick in VFL football I kicked my only goal of my career.

I see someone else has been reading AFL 2003 or 2004 (which I already have )

Who am I?

Nicknamed Stretch, I was recruited from Port Melbourne where I won a JJ Liston Trophy.

 

[Its All Goodes]

Frank Johnson won the Liston trophy in 1952, won the Swans Best and Fairest in 1960?

Stephen Allender won the Liston in 1980 went on to wear the No 14 jumper at the Swans

Vic Aanensen won two listons 1979 and 1981 and played for the Swans

 

[Benevolent Ert]

but I believe Vic Aanensen was the only one of that trio nicknamed "stretch"
