Fairy now just plying his trade for Henley C grade, one of the funniest blokes you could ever meet but its fair to say is wasting his talent.

Think Toumpas was already 17.
Zac Hier was only 16 or 17 in 2006.
Fuller said in the Best of Both Worlds he was thinking of debuting a 16yo Jared Pentrenko in the 2006 GF
How old was Tregenza in 88 or 89?

Wanganeen would have just turned 17 in 1990 IIRC?

I think Shannon Hurn may have been 17 in his first GF.

Thanks Mark.
That would mean Toumpas missed out on this year's draft by a week?

Shannon Hurn also played in 2004, so i guess 17yrs and 28days (or near enough)

Wangas was 16 when he made his league debut.
Turned 17 early in the season.
Can still see him scooting past Salisbury and kicking a classy goal in, to quote PJK...
"The sweetest victory of all."

SJT - whoops - you'd be correct
Hurn - 17yrs 29 days
Tregenza - 18 years 212 days when he played against North in 1989 GF
I just added both to the database for those GF games

My information is yes, Aish is the youngest ever SANFL Premiership player and possibly the youngest to play in a Grand Final.
