Hi Spelly,

Not sure if you will have this data or not but will ask anyway! How many players have played for Sturt that were recruited from the Blackwood football club which is now in West Adelaides Zone?

I don't have that info, but Mark Beswick may have.

I have an enormous amount of data to add for previous clubs into the database but I can give these names as a start:

BONNER, Derek A Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
BRACEGIRDLE, Garry - Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
CAHILL, Paul Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood (After his Full name as an underage Medal Winner!)
CROSBY, Mark A Adelaide Hills League South Adelaide Blackwood
DILENA, Carl W Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
HILL, Walter N Adelaide Hills League Glenelg Blackwood
HUNTER, James R Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
HUNTER, John C Adelaide Hills League North Adelaide Blackwood
MAGAREY, Robert C Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
MOTLEY, Peter M Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
SCHOELL, Barrie D Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
WATCHMAN, Noel W Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
WICKENS, Cecil V Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
WILLIAMS, Darren J Adelaide Hills League Sturt Blackwood
WILSON, Dale A Adelaide Hills League West Torrens Blackwood

i dont think barrie schoell was recruited from blackwood. i think it was onkaparinga valley since he was brought up in woodside

I have (and I could well be wrong)

B. D. Schoell

SFC (Ex Blackwood) 1988-1993 >>>>> NFC 1995-1998 (Onkaparinga Valley)

I'm guessing he played 1994 for Onka

Nice work! I am sure the Sunday Mail Journo would not have minded that info for the article on the weekend!

reckon nick wark also from blackwood

So what this confirms is that, despite all the hysteria, not much of any real quality has come from Blackwood - apart from Peter Motley - whom I would query played there at all.
