Broken Hill's daily newspaper is doing a regular profile about the 'Best Ever' players to come from the area.
Bound to be a few SANFL players pop up.
Like #1 in the series, former Glenelg full-back Chris Duthy...

#3 - 1912 Magarey Medallist Dave Low, who I'm pretty sure was the first SA footballer killed in WWI...

Is definately a Broken Hill Boy. I think it is him and Walker that spark great debate as who is the better player from there. Apparently both of them dominated their Assocation Rep game when they were both 16 years old
