In the 1980s who wore a motorcycle/cricket helmet and had a very high number?

I cant remember Mordi wearing specs...I stand to be corrected though.
I think Tony Southcombe for Carlton wore specs in 1977
Blethyn's last year was in 1976
Chris Stone of the Saints, wore some kind of eye protection...may have been early 80,s

Chris Stone wore protective eyeware, he looked like "Robin" of Batman fame.

Did Dean Chiron end up wearing a helmet?

Pat Murphy generally wore glasses, but used contact lenses (one of which he lost) in his only game in 66.

Never liked Specky Blethyn.

Once at Windy Hill, in their forward pocket, the ball was going over his St Kilda opponents head.
Specky deliberately jumped into the back of a St Kilda player with all his boots studs, and pushed back real hard.
He took the mark.
Specky could easily have taken the mark on his chest.
The St Kilda player was in serious pain with a backfull of stud holes and Specky got to kick for goal.

I wanted to put Specky's eyes out.
It should have been paid pushing in the back - with boot studs.
