Ah yes, Greg Schlein. Straight out of school and played his 1st league game for Norwood v Port Adelaide at Alberton Oval in the last minor round 1970. This guy looked at though he had everything. Built like an Adonis, 6'5" tall, blonde hair, great aerial skills, true kick, excellent pace and recovery skills .... on his day he looked every bit a potential champion.
Unfortunatley he had too many ordinary days and I consider he lacked genuine ticker for the game and seemed more interested in his sun tan than getting his hands dirty. This is from a Norwood point of view, maybe North fans could paint a different picture. It was generally thought he was a Robert Oatey favourite at Norwood and lost favour once Bob Hammond came to Norwood and shook the place up a bit.
