Apologies if this has been asked before …

There seemed to be an endless number of players who swapped between Sturt and Norwood in the 70’s and 80’s, so Spelly, can you please do your magic and list players who have played for both clubs.

Bonus points if you can list by decade.

Cheers …

I defer to Spelly for the definitive list, but I have been told by a number of reliable sources that Bruce Winter is the only SANFL player to play over 150 games for two different SANFL clubs. He played over 150 games for both Sturt and Norwood.
