    I read and save a lot of 100+ year old match reports on Trove and there is a Sicily who played for Footscray mentioned in quite a few of them that got me wondering if he was a relative?
    I wouldn't mind if he played for us.

      You know that I often say we looking to recruit good coaches or players or admins and not best friends and their personal qualities don't really enter into it. But you have to draw the line somewhere.

      If that arseclown turned up at our club I would fair dinkum spew up!
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          My recollection is he maybe is from Melton, or surrounds. Think he played for Keilor.

          Edit : He was living in Melton when drafted.

            Him being from Melton (and I married a Melton girl!) explains a lot. He would have been residentially bound to us before drafting days.

                      Took a while for the penny to drop.

                      Is that hair gel? On your ear.
