When I think of Des I find it hard to get passed the first few letters .

 

[Andrew..]

What about Arko, surely he's worth a mention.

Phil Blake is on the coaching staff for the Wallabies. A couple of our players have served on the NRL judiciary.

However it would seem from the shortness of the above list that it is not the norm for our ex-players to take up leading roles in the community, apart from in football related areas such as media commentary.

One area where our club seems to have produced more that our share is in footy media, considering Rex Mossop, Vautin, Johhny Gibbs, & Zorba all worked in the media for many years.

Quite a few have shown their talents in Lowes ads.

Tezza has to be my favourite out of all the footy players in Lowes ads though.

I'm not sure how liberally we are defining "success", but a few others that came to mind:
1. Mitchell Cox was a Holden dealer
2. Jack Elsegood is a real estate agent at Delmege.
3. Mark Caroll was Russell Crowe's bodyguard.

Oh, and I think Martin Bella is actually a physiotherapist.
