    I forgot Johnson. He would definitely be in. Thanks GVG. Gian also a chance.

      I'll go Whitten, Smith, Hawkins, Darcy, Morris, Libba, Picken, Brian Cordy, McLean
      Brian Cordy would be one. Smith started with #31 so I'm not sure about him. Lethal Lee played more than Ted

        I don't think Lethal started in number three.

          Yes, you are right. Ted might be correct.

            Btw, could I please ask the story behind the nick name Bubba? Did some goggling but not really anything about where is came-about.
            I think it's just always been his nickname from before he came to the club. It's a common nickname for people whose surname is Smith for some reason.
            They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              What about Michael Ford in 45? I think he played 100 games in that number? I loved Michael Ford what a great trier.

              I'll say Picken and Ford would be in the list.

                Brian in 36 would be up there.

                  Charles "Bubba" Smith was an NFL gridiron player, and moved into acting after his football career ended. He is most well known for playing the part of Moses Hightower in all bar one of the "Police Academy" movies. My money is on that being the source of the nickname.

                      I have found it via google as well. And surely google pointed me back to Woof (source of truth) to the interview of Eppelstun by TCD.

                          Guesses so far:

                          Brad Johnson (6) - CORRECT
                          Libba (39) - Close, but no (2nd to Daren Milburn)
                          Magic MacLean (51) - CORRECT
                          Brian Cordy (49) - CORRECT
                          Chris Grant (3) - No, 7th on list
                          Lin Jong (46) - No. He's 7th on the all time list (1st is Clancee Pearce!)
                          Dale Morris (38) - CORRECT
                          Liam Picken (42) - Not quite (2nd to Robert Walls)
                          Gary Dempsey (24) - CORRECT
                          Doug Hawkins (7) - CORRECT
                          Gia (13) - CORRECT
                          Ted Whitten (3) - CORRECT
                          Luke Darcy (14) - 4th on list (to Bob Skilton)
                          Rohan Smith (5) - 3rd (to John Rantall)
                          Michael Ford (45) - 4th (to Cameron Ling)
                          Brian Harris/Lake (36) - 5th all time (behind Simon Goodwin)
                          Mick Egan (10) - Long way down the list (1st was Marcus Ashcroft)

                          Good quizzing all round there, with the 8 identified pretty quickly.

                          Who else has a question?

                                Eastcoast jeans. They jumped onboard in 1983 after we started the season without a sponsor mostly because we had finished last the year before and had won about seven games combined over the previous two years. So we kind of invented a logo to go where the sponsors label usually went that said "Go West" from memory.

                                Anyway we shot out of the barriers and won four of our first five and Eastcoast came up with some money. Thankfully.
