Beasley Hutton Offline Platinum Member Posts: 9653 Thank you received: 2912	Mel Whinnen must go close to the biggest gap between his first (1960) and last Premiership (1975) but of course he did play in a couple (69,71) between those 2 as well. The late great Graham Polly Farmer played in Premierships 15 years apart but with different clubs (EP- 56 & WP- 71). The following user(s) said Thank You: ArkRoyal

Don't forget 73, BH - us long suffering Subi supporters never will.

Featherby was a genuine evergreen; he nearly managed another flag in 1988, but finally succumbed to injury. We were very lucky to have Bunton and Featherby comeback to the club.

Would have thought the late great Polly Farmer too, flags at East Perth in the 50's and closed out with one at West Perth in 71 - not the same club though.

ooollllrrrrrry2 Offline Premium Member Posts: 898 Thank you received: 207	Mel Whinnen certainly hard to beat on this one - Ron Alexander did alright with East Perth in 72 and the Sharks in 85. Craig Bradley won one early with Port Adelaide in 80 or 81 and then Carlton in 95. The following user(s) said Thank You: ArkRoyal

Bus driver Tom great man.
Remember sitting next to him in the changerooms after a game when I was a kid.
had some great characters back then.
1966 GF his last game.
From memory I think he kicked a goal late in the game.
I know the great Frank Pyke kicked 7 from memory.

It's not the size of the dog in the fight. It's the size of the fight in the dog.
Winning isn't everything. It's the ONLY THING !!!!!!
