Marty Pask?
Is this thread for players that haven't played a senior AFL game at all or just for the Bulldogs?

Yep. I thought it was for the Bulldogs.
He only spent one year on our list, poor guy was just ruined with injury.

Good question, my op was perhaps vague. I think no VFL/AFL Games at all (unless explicitly said the opposite). The short bio/style of player type is probably the most important factor as ‘no gamers’ is a much harder version.

Drafted in the 1990s I was a smallish midfielder who also loved a goal. A legend of the VFA I was unable to make the transition to the big time.

Wasn't he Aker's bridle pony? The good-ordinary player who happens to be best mates with the superstar you are trying to import into the club?
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Correct. Although Sam must be getting towards Ward's games total at GWS.
He's still on their list isn't he? If he isn't then he has only just retired-again.

Just broke the record for the longest time between debut and game number 50, but now we're getting sidetracked.

Saade Ghazi?
I assume by VFA it would be someone from early in the decade.

That's him. I was disappointed to see in more recent photos the massive perm he used to sport is long gone.

I can only picture him with the perm.
Alright - rookied to Footscray sometime between 1980-89, I had a unique connection to cult hero Zeno Tzatzaris.

I went to school with Saade. My mate and I were walking over the Cross street bridge on our way into the ground for r2 1983 when Saade walkns up to us "hey guys, where do the u/19s play? is it at the same ground as the seniors?" (keeping in mind it's around 5 minutes to match time) and when we said that as an u/19 player then he should have been at Victoria Park getting ready to play Collingwood u/19s he yelled a rude word and stormed off!

Reminds me of Daniel Hargreaves who was so shy when he was drafted he was once late to a reserves game at Kardinia Park because he was too shy to ask for a lift with a teammate and the V-Line train was delayed.
