Who do you remember

Post: # 1746331Post older saint »

We all get so emotional on here (passionate) about the side and players and coach and performance i thought lighten the mood and also expose peoples ages.

List the players you first remember in a specific number . May not be all from the same era especially as younger we don't remember everyone or have forgotten as older.
Hope i have these numbers right as off top of my head no research:

1. Barker
2. Gary Sidebottom
3. Duperoozle
4. Barry Breen
5. Joffa
6. David Grant
7. Robert Mace
8. Jeff Dunne
9. Max Crow
10. Michael Roberts
11. Burns
12. Gary Colling
13. Sean ralphsmith
14. Lockett
15. Val Perovich
16.
17. Peter Kiel
18. Grant Thomas
19. Mark Scott?
20. Daryl Cowie
21.
22. Sinom O'Donnell
23. Loewe
24. Frawley
25. Jezzalenko
26.
27. Rod Owen
28. Simon Meehan?
29. Burke
30.
31. Sarau
32. Rob Muir
33. Elphingstone
34. Grant Lawrie

36. Gordon Fode
37. Dean Rice

The most famous number 27 in StKilda's history was not George Young.

Try Barry Breen!

Barks wore 25 when he started and was noticed taking big marks v Dawks and Norf. I think he swapped to number 1 for 1977 season as he wore it taking MOTY v Swans

Lazar played most of his career as Number 9 (just 1 season with 50).

50 IS Enrico Misso.
He made it his own over the course of his career.


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

I would say that that was the list from the year that Vidovic played in the no 50 jumper.
