Which AFL Players Went To Your School?

[whitey_1975]

My high school no longer exists, but we had the McAdam brothers, Josh Mail and a few who played SANFL. (most of the team played underage for sanfl clubs or div1 amatuers) Most of us guys were from the wrong side of the fence and although many could have played from a skill perspective, keeping out of trouble was not my schools/students, forte. Discipline I think you might call it and serious issues on the home/family front, drugs, violence all those things. We had a ripper school team but we got into to many fights and just couldn't match the PAC and so on private schools in finals for endurance due to extracurricular activities and that discipline thing. I remember running off for a *** and a cone behind the shed with quite a few of the guys during 1/2 time and stuff. That was the late 80s though.

[Lord of the Pies]

Nathan Burke was my substitute teacher for a few weeks, early 90's. That was pretty cool.

 

[TBoyleSuperstar]

Troy Makepeace went to my school in Churchill, I played cricket with Dan McKenna (played for the Cats in a night premiership in 2009??), coached cricket against Brendan Goddard and Andrew McQualter. Also played cricket with Brent Connelly (rookie listed at Freo a few years ago)

Troy was a great guy, as is Dan.

 

[Mattrox]

Went to school with Daniel Healy (former Saints). That's it but not bad for a country town.

Have had Whelan, Djerrkurra and Vince as students at various times though.

 

[Beth]

Jana Wendt, I think she was a ruck rover.

 

[hcd199]

New Town High (Tas) - went to school with Jimmy Webster (St.K). I've umpired Colin Garland in a game of cricket, too (he took 2/20, and rain ended the match before he could bat).

 

[Jcpdragonx]

Not from my school because the school I am currently is only 5 years old, but I was enrolled at St. Micheal's College until my parents decided on the new school. Tredrea and Scott Thompson went there.

 

[RichoGun]

Jeremy McGovern and soon to be AFL player Dom Sheed

 

[dajesmac]

Jamie Bennell.
