Who Am I? - 2017 Off Season, Full Version

[SquirrelGrip]

Tasmanian?

[The Doctor]

yes he is

The Tasmanian team our mystery player played for were fierce rivals of the team his famous uncle once played for and different to the team his cousin played for!!!

[Scraggers]

Jade Rawlings?

[Yankee Hotel Foxtrot]

Ben Harrison?

[The Doctor]

no to Jade & Ben. Good guesses though

He played less than 1/4 of his total VFL/AFL games with us. He kicked 5 goals in a very important game for us once and lost his place in our team to a fellow tasmanian, who also played for the same state league club. When he played we won about 2/3 of our games.

More clues

* One of my team mates from that team was drafted by the Bulldogs but I wasn't.

My team mate was drafted in the 80's and played 3 seasons for us and had a great game in the famous win v Collingwood 1990

Who am I?

* My uncle was one of the greatest players to ever play the game.

His son (my cousin) was an All Australian for us in the 90's

Anything to do with Keenan Reynolds? I recall him kicking 5 at some stage?

[The Doctor]

It's Simon Minton-Connell.

yes it is!!

Simon Minton Connell played for North Hobart in their 1987 Grand Final winning side as an 18yo full back. His team mate that day was Darren Davies who was drafted at no.7 in the 1987 draft. He is the nephew of the great Peter Hudson and therefore cousin of Paul Hudson, an All Australilan in 1998. He played 25 games for us and lost his place to fellow North Hobart recruit (via Carlton) James Cook.

He kicked 5 goals in our finals win vs West Coast 1998

Go Twodogs

[Twodogs]

Alright.

1. I was. SOO player
2. I kicked the winning goal in a game.
3. I finished third in the goal kicking in my first year.
4. I faded from the scene after a couple more seasons my place being taken by one of our great small forwards who also faded from the scene after a couple of years
5. He was one of the players who came to the club as part of an old fashioned recruiting coup.

[Twodogs]

Ian Williams?

Spot on first time PP. you're up mate.

[LostDoggy]

Ah, Ian Williams my favourite from that era - I used to wear No.5 for Spotswood juniors in 1983 and 84 in honour of the great man.

OK.

Only 3 players have played over 100 games for us despite debuting at 25 or older. Who are they?

Do you mean they joined us at 25 or older, or joined the AFL at 25 or older?
