Another easy one

did we get him from norths ?? & then he went back to them after his stint with us ??

Not that I know of jjai. All I know is he played for us from 65 - 74 (187 games) and then was unwanted and went to Norths 75 - 78 (71 games).

Has to be Alan Thompson - unless it involves other clubs. He seems to fit the criteria.

no and nice one jjai but not who I was after.

I played in the engine room and I was a captain/coach as well.

Bozo won three Premierships, Thompson only played for Manly, Harvey played in 3 GFs.

I may have to give some credit to jjai for Des, as it looks like he meets all the criteria as he definitely played fours GFs, won 2 Premierships and most likely was captain in one of his 287 Oz games.

yeah but he was never capt/coach while playing for us ..  i dipped out ;D

No you may not have dipped out - he never said was a captain/coach at the same time lol. However I'm not sure if was ever captain, surely he must have been captain for at least 15 minutes!?

That is exactly why jjai gets extra bickies for that guess. I was a bit shocked to realise that someone would meet all criteria over different eras. And yes, I didn't specify captain and coach at the same time so it was harder to spot - and it came back to bite me. 🙂

Hamilton used to wear his Police Boots on training runs, presumably including those loops they used to do running up the Alfred Rd hill and down Pine Ave.  He reckoned that when he put his boots on game day, his feet felt as light as a feather.
