That's primarily those that played 100 games with one club. Others who 'made it' but didn't play 100 games would be players like Paul Weston, Kym Hodgeman and Mark Naley.

I reckon we should start a thread on those who made it in the SANFL as well. (Or for that matter, those who didn't)

Ben Holland's played 179 AFL games so I think he qualifies.
Speaking of North players at Melbourne you'll be able to add Rivers and Jamar to that list no too far in the future.
Scott Bamford was in the AFL system for a long time but not sure how many games he played, probably fell short.

Bamford played 59 games - 22 for Fitzroy, 24 for Brisbane, 13 for Geelong

Cheer mate, crikey, it seemed like he was gone for about 10 years too. I do remember taking great delight in him kicking a few against the Power at Footy Park which I attended and upset a few Power supporters.

He appears on the 'Golden Goals' video - kicking a goal after taking about 3 or 4 bounces running at full tilt - the game in 1999 when Geelong won 24.11 to Bulldogs 20.14.

WOODVILLE
M BLIGHT
P MAYLIN
D BOLTON
C MCKELLAR
R HUPPATZ
R NEGRI
A ROGERS

Bill Lokan was a very good player for Fitzroy - back when they were a reasonable side and was a big possession gatherer week in week out. He should be on the North list of players that made it.

Negri? Reckon he played 3 games max for the Crows

If you want to pick a Crow go for Johnny Klug - did v well even tho only played for 2 seasons until injury forced him out.

Negri

Reakon you can add Bruce Abernethy to Port's list.

113 games for North, Collingwood and Adelaide.

Came 5th in the 1986 Brownlow...

Adrian Mcadam played for the roosters started with a bang at Nth Melb and then dissappeared. Gilbert Mcadam and Derek Kickett from Centrals.
