I was named in the Bulldogs team of the century.
Herb Henderson.
I am the son of a former player. I played between 30 and 50 games. I played finals and was drafted in the last ten years.

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

If it's Tim Callan, I'm happy for Gary to take his turn.

It's not Tim Callan.

Sorry for jumping in but is it Cam Wight? His old man played for Richmond I think although did Cam play in a final with us? Cam was also drafted about 12 years ago now but can't think of anyone else. It's a good who am I.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Cam Wight fits the bill except for the "within 10 year draft''.
His dad Terry Wight did play for us with a total of 3 games in 1981. Terry also played 39 games at Collingwood.

Collingwood was it? Yeah thought Cam was drafted around 03. I'm out.

If trades are out and we drafted, it goes back to 2004 at most. That's the RG and Tommy Williams draft. The tense 'played' I take it means no longer playing. We have a window of finals of a few years. So draft year 2010 might be the last... Need more time.

Re: The 'Who Am I?' Thread
This is tricky. Did the father & son both play exclusively for us? Did they play finals for us and were they drafted by us?
A few guesses:
Andrew McDougall
Barry Hall
Andrejs Everitt
Tim Callan seems a better fit than all of those but he's been ruled out already
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Re: The 'Who Am I?' Thread
Sorry guys my bad. I thought I read Cam's draft date as 04 when it was 02. But anyway it ws Cam Wight. So Bulldog Joe it's all yours.

Re: The 'Who Am I?' Thread
I came from Western Victoria on a 6 game permit but only played 4 times in my initial season. Impressed as a young full forward with 6 goals in the last of the 4 games before returning to my country club.
Returned the following year for an additional 12 games but that was the end of my career in the big league at the age of 22.
