What did 'WOW' Warren Jones Tattoo say?
one of his tattoos read 'special Dimsims' as he got it done in a tattoo parlour that was opposite a chinese restaurant and he asked the guy to do something chinese- not realising what that all he knew - or could see- was the specials board.

Nineteen players in the history of the AFL/VFL have played 170 games or more without playing in a final.

Two Saints head the list Barker 230, Cunningham 224

There are two other former Saints on the list who also played for other clubs.

Who are they?

BTW. Greg Burns and Robert Elphinstone 169 and 157 just miss out on the list.

If Richmond could have a couple of more bad seasons, there is every chance that Chris Newman (196) will take Barker's record away.

Grant gave up #35 in 1987
Someone we all know got it in 1989 and carried it through till well into the next century.

But who had it in 1988?

Yes - a man with the same moviestar good looks as Cameron Ling!

I sort of hijacked the thread with this supplementary question.
So the next question belongs to Rexy.
