We have bloke who played about 330. Out of those i think 327 were in the A's. He played his first 3 games in the b's and never played b's again. Was playing A's until he was 48 i think.

No matter what club you are talking about the same applies. It is about the whole club not just the A grade. Every flag is a great achievement no matter what grade. Not everyone can play A grade and for every bloke that thinks their A grade is all that matters they forget the fact that unless they are playing Test cricket there are a lot better players than them around. Every grade is as significant as the next IMHO.

It always used to piss me off when he said if he didn't care if the lower grades ever won a flag and it was all about the A's. While I could see his point of view to some extent I was always of the belief that if you're wearing a yellow collar you get behind em no matter what the level. It takes more than just superstars and club legends to make a cricket club. Still, a fine career from a man who did not take failure lightly.

Thats Smithy for you REB you know him as well as i do and you are right he did not take failure to well. He did also captain 11 premierships and played in another 4 i think so he also didn't have to take it too well because they won so bloody often. Which i guess made losing even harder.
