I can't find that list - what about Aris Gatoudis? (West 1984-85).

I'm not sure he played League. Was a good player at Flinders Park.

Yes, he did. I actually had two different spellings on his surname, so I didn't take any notice on it. So I've taken one of them out on my list.

According to Spelly, there has been 10 of them. The most recent I can recall is Wilf Huddleston who played for Port and Central in the early-mid 1960s.

I have this vague recall the O'Brien at Norwood may have been a Cristian, without the h, but I'm not sure.

That's correct, it's Cristian, without the 'r'. All the Norwood Annual Reports spell it this way.

I know Schoppey is a tall guy, was perhaps blonde once upon a time. Unsure of his occupation though.

I think Pepe Fusco's christian name was actually Guiseppe, and that he simply went by Pepe. He is listed in Pride Of The Bay as Guiseppe. I notice there is another Guiseppe on your list already...
