    The 'Who Am I?' Thread

    Thought I'd start a similar thread to the old 'internet scavenger hunt' thread whereby the winner gets to pose the next question. Like that thread, it's pure fun so please go off memory as google is far too easy to crack the case.

    (1st) Who Am I?

    I was born in the 1970's.
    I only ever played for Footscray FC (Not Western Bulldogs).
    I was a fan favourite.
    I played between 30 and 100 games.
    I kicked between 70 & 120 goals at the dogs.
    I was awarded a Rising Star nomination at Footscray.
    I was not a one club player.

    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

    I was recruited from Mildura Imperials in 1950.
    I played in 130 games for Footscray, including the 1954 premiership.
    I retired in 1958, having never kicked a goal.
    I was named in the Bulldogs team of the century.
