    Easy to forget end of career transfers

    You need to put your thinking caps on.

    What career players in the VFL/AFL are considered 'one club' (loosely speaking) when they played on generally badly for a season too long.

    Kekovich - 4 games Collingwood
    Hawkins - 21 games Fitzroy
    Winmar - 21 games WBFC
    Brereton - 7 games Sydney , 14 games Collingwood


    Others?

    Here's one to test you. Who did Damien Monkhurst stretch out 10 games too many with ?

    I'm going to stay off google for the challenge. I'll go with Hawthorn, only because he's an assistant there. No confidence in this though.

    I nearly fell of my chair when it was bought to my attention recently. StKilda, 2000. Forgettable.

    James McDonald, Dean Brogan, Chad Cornes
    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    Always thought it was a shame Jesaulenko left the Blues.

    Corey McKernan...not when he went to Carlton but when he went back to the kangaroos.

    Could probably add Jonathan Hay and Jade Rawlings to that list of good list management decisions by the kangas!

    I'll agree it's forgotten by most, but not me. It was the first real player move I remember as a kid, and it cut me to the core. Took his number off and never wore another until today, as chance would have it. Just had the number 9 put on my new guernsey…
