    Could someone get the facts right, in the mean time, I'll go with what "Gena" told me.
    According to my research, Arthur Stevens played with the Dogs from 1927-32, made his debut at 28 and played 64 games. Arthur Olliver played from 1935-1950, 272 games and held the games record prior to EJ taking it.

    Hillier never mentioned Arthur Oliver at all, he said Stevens. It is Arthur Stevens, its only you that thinks its Oliver.
