in 1990 and topped the goal kicking in that year. He won the best and fairest in
1994 and 1996 and was again leading goal kicker in 1994. During the 1996 season,
his best, he played mainly in defence. He has played 252* games. In 1997, 1998
and 1999 he won All Australian Selection. He has been club captain since 2000.
He was chosen by the Footscray Football Club as its star on
the Footscray Centenary Maximum Card and Postcard. The maximum card is displayed
below. The postcard is essentially the same except that the background is
brighter and there is no postmark or stamp. |
