SA Footy

whatever happened to him ?
what was his game & goal tally ?


i always liked the way he played

22 games and 11 goals between 1990 and 1992 is all I can find, bayman.

thanks spelly, i thought he would've played about double that many games.....wrong again could play though that lad

My favourites were Fitzgerald/fitzsimmons??? (can't remember his name)
and Scotty Simister

Pretty sure he moved to the AFL - my memory tells me Essendon

He may have finished an AFL career and moved on somewhere else hence the small number of SANFL games

Hondo is right. It's actually 'Lachlan' Ross and after Kevin Morris moved back to Melbourne he worked for Essendon, who promptly drafted Darren Bartsch and Ross. There's a photo online somewhere of Ross taking an absolute screamer at Footy Park.

Yep- remember the mark, I reakon the photo won Ray Titus another photo of the year gong...

I remember that photo too. It was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thread.

Here he is in an Essendon team photo from 1994. Second from left, front row:

Good get Hondo!

It was a great grab.

Lachlan Ross must have returned to West, because he also played a further 8 games for 4 behinds in 1996 for them.

Who's the South player suffering the choker hold?

Could it be Ian White, who I think played a few games for South after leaving North?

The South player is Peter McCarty. I used to work with him at the time and he was the butt of a number of jokes about that mark.

Ahh Peter McCarty. He was a good player for South. Where did he finish up after his SANFL career was over? I've got a small suspicion that he went to play in a country league, but more likely i think he played in the amateur league?
