AFLW 2024 - Round 4 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Yes I noticed a few tall tales but thought I would post it . More as an interest piece but also to see how it stands. My thoughts on the games was that he continuously played South then North. I think Northern Territory football was always played in summer.Yes, I've seen that article before. Pure fantasy land !
688 games over 25 seasons - that is average of 27 games per year without a miss (yet he suffered all those injuries listed in the article).
He's also quoted as saying "I was on $120 a game with Footscray in 1971" and then later in piece talks about injury when at Footscray
being collected by De Wolde of Hawthorn in a practice game [presume he's claiming that to be 1971 as well].
When Footscray announced the final list ready for the 1971 season a few days before Round 1, the names do not include Sutton

I can find ref to four practice games played by Footscray in lead up to 1971 season.
None of them mention Sutton as playing (but a certain D Cometti is trying out for them).
And note that no match vs Hawthorn occurs.

Wayne Fox played at both South Launceston and Sandy Bay in 1990. He started at South after Browning gave him the boot from Hobart after the '89 Grand Final for demanding a pay increase. By mid-season he moved back to Hobart and played with Sandy Bay and was listed there in 1991 before retiring from TFL footy, I don't believe he played any games in 1991, will look it up for you though.Wayne Fox - 1976 – 0xx - Glenorchy - TFL

VAFA legend Bill Pearson's total of 1023 can be extended to 1080 by adding on his interstate goals.
Wickham's 2014 season tally of 100 was done in just 10 games, including a club and NTFA record of 28 goals in a game.One that our Tasmania friends could investigate.

Alle De Wolde was only 15 in 1971 (born 27/12/1955) I think Sutton meant 1975.
Hear him one day on the Coodabeens and said he played for Claremont and was going to try out with Carlton but a Footscray official meet him at Tullamarine so he tried out there instead.
Great Northern FL Trevor Sutton supposedly in town 1970 & 1977
