David Kantilla was a champion player for South Adelaide Panthers. Was a childhood hero of mine.

Agree. Early on he looked fabulous- so balanced across half back. Then he seemed to stagnate a bit.

[Enrico_Misso]

Russell Jeffrey once collided with Plugger and injured the big man's knee at Moorabbin.

Dennis Dunn played one reserve game for saints with Johnny Long - Michael's brother

[desertsaint]

typically darwin centric, as always. the good old berrimah line. lance white should walk into that team. not sure why sean burgoyne isn't in it either. aidy mcadam the most naturally gifted player, just spread himself across too many sports and not dedicated enough to any of them.
