    Bulldog father/sons, brothers...

    Seems to have come up on another thread thought I would start one on players who are related in one way or another who have some sort of attachment to the dogs... If it hasnt been done before..
    Start with a maybe little known one for the younger,
    Terry and Garry Wheeler,brothers
    Ted and Ted jnr Whitten plus Teds Brother Don
    Dennis and Daryl Collins.

    Heres one that goes way back
    Dolly Aked, Allan Edwards,Allan Butch Edwards, Jake Edwards (Carlton) Shane Obree (Collingwood)
    All are father son except Shane, cousin to Jake.
    The obvious
    Steve and Mitch Wallis
    Tony and Tom Liberatore.
    Would be interesting to see how many there are and how many we dont know of.

              David was a champion fullback and also represented Victoria. Was rarely beaten on all the great full fowards.

                Don't forget Bruce Reid's brother...John Reid.
                I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

                  It would have been much better if John was their father rather than Bruce. John played the required 100 games.


                  Ayce Cordy had a few uncles play as well.

                    Listening to Bruce recently he was given the flick after 86 games. I thought he went all right at the time but the MC didn't think so. What a bloody mistake that was.

                      Neil was one of the best.
