[Punk Rooster]

Stephen Paxman- North Adelaide

[GWW]

Didn't Paxman start off at Centrals?

[braveheart]

paxman did start at centrals then did a knee if i remember,played most of this football in the reserves, cryed like a baby like most port players cause was not getting a league spot then went to north.

Hmm sounds like he was having a bit of a cry like Allan Stewart after he kept losing (Grand) finals to Port back in the 90's.

[braveheart]

Allan Stewart lost only once to port in a grandfinal the other was steven wright but nice try.

[Macca19]

Actually from memory, Centrals said straight after he did his knee that they didnt want him on their books anymore, so he found a new SANFL club. Wasnt a "whinge" as such

Didn't stop him from having a sook, thats the point i'm making.

[braveheart]

macca sorry but your not right he played with centrals most of that year after his knee was right to go but in the reserves,it was him that wanted to move because we wanted like most to play league,but if you watched the games he played in the 2nd's there's no way he would of every got a spot in the league side is form was c**p,and did not look like he even wanted to be on the park, but thats in the past he went on to north and played league,so i guess that was the right move.and Allan Stewart gave his all for the club he was spent after that lost in the grandfinal to port,if it was not for him the club would not be were it is today,and im sure ron fuller had a sook in 2000,2001,2004,2005,and shaun rehn in 2003,and yes im sure clarko and roy were upset with not winning in 2002,2006,but we will be around the mark again in 2007.

Clay Sampson was originally from South Australia wasn't he?

[kingrooster]

1997 did North get Chris Naish.

[Gravel]

He may have been GWW - My AFL book says he was traded by Melbourne for Nick Pesch.
Has been an excellent player and leader for South

[Gravel]

The next season Kingrooster - Port traded John Rombotis for him

[am Bays]

Only 6 years removed from his runner up finish to IBF in the '91 British Open.

Ben Parker was drafted by Sturt. He never settled at the Adelaide Crows and played mainly seconds at Sturt.

Brent Heaver was at West.
