Hird

nope, injured too much

[rogernumber10]

John Beckwith, Barrassi, McMahen from Melbourne ?

Nope, surprisingly none qualified

[rogernumber10]

Ablett

Nope, none of them. Not Gary, Gary jrn, Nathan, Len, Geoff, Kevin, Luke or any other Ablett I may have missed. However, Gary's finals v Melbourne, Essendon and Hawthorn in 1989 should count for about 8 finals played by any other player.
