Youngest behind Dexter Kennedy 15 yrs 336 days
Darcy A. Hourigan 15 years 357 days


The youngest ever is West Adelaide's Cecil Gryst - 14 years 270 days v South Adelaide 1907 (Played 26 games in total)
This stat may change in the future when I type in players rd X rd for clubs other than West and North. These two club stat lists are complete from 1897 while the other clubs are 1997 - 2011 > Then there are the unknown birthdates of players which mean we will never really get the perfect answer without such information. In time I'll publish players from different decades with missing birthdates - I'm sure people on this site will have some answers or know whereabouts of some of these missing players.

Good luck to the young Panther today!

15 years 357 days? Wouldn't that make him 16 years 1 day?

365 days in a year Mr Beefy

dyslexic

How old was Angus Monfries when he played his first for Sturt?

Played very good today too .

Massive future ahead of the kid

I watched a bit of the first half on tv, thought he struggled a bit, but thats very understandable given his age.

He has a very big future ahead, although I'm not sure its in the SANFL.

Faark me, I always thought Dexter Kennedy held the record ...

Anyone who saw the game, how did the lad go?

Thought he was ok... especially early, seemed to run out of gas in the second half.
He's going to be a big lad when he grows up......

Cheers for that. Did he do enough to keep his place for a finals game?

He played well enough not to be overlooked for next week

A very good effort against a top two team, his first 3 attacks on the ball saw him win possession, he is strong for a 15yo and can only get better

So YES, he should hold his place for next week.

Summed up pretty well.

With Veide an automatic out, I'd say he'll probably hold his place as not too many changes will be made.
