Re: The 'Who Am I?' Thread
My next clue following on from thinking outside the box was to think inside the box
The OP didn't put limitations on players only so I thought I'd mix it up.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Quickly reading the post I thought Chris Bond, but discounted it as it wasn't our player. Bond?

After a brief career at the Bulldogs I became the first Indigenous Australian to set foot on Antarctica.

They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

How do we know an Indigenous Australian didn't take a dugout for a long spin 400 years ago ?

Correct. I thought that was an obscure fact and would be tougher. I suppose we haven't had a great number of indigenous players though.

I seem to recall reading about it as I was looking up trips to Antarctica. My friend did one of those trips where you fly to South America then take a cruise around Antarctica and stop at various points and do activities like kayaking, short hikes etc.

Re: The 'Who Am I?' Thread
I am starting to forget which players we have done, but here it goes.
I was originally from The Gippsland area but started my football career at Central districts in SANFL. I was drafted by WB in the 90's and debuted as a midfielder at the age of 24. I played less than 10 games.

Sorry guys I went to school with kid called Col Marcri many, many years ago.
I am the only player recruited from another VFL club to captain Footscray for the last 50 years.
