bespectacled footballers

[Pseudo]

Having a heated discussion with a port mate at the Watermark this arvo.

Who was the last bespectacled player to take the field in the SANFL?

I remember a Central player in specks, but can't remember the name.

My port mate reckons it was Paul Merret #29.

Who was it, and were there any other notable specky players in the league?

[DOC]

Stephen Boehm (Centrals).

Moved to Glenelg, wanted to play for Glenelg but Nicholls wouldn’t have him. Ended up playing for Port in the ‘77 GF, beating Glenelg. Played a couple of reserves games for Glenelg in 1980 before becoming an assistant coach when Campbell then Cornes were in charge.
