laughlin ross..west adelaide

[bayman]

whatever happened to him ?
what was his game & goal tally ?


i always liked the way he played

[spell_check]

22 games and 11 goals between 1990 and 1992 is all I can find, bayman.

[bayman]

thanks spelly, i thought he would've played about double that many games.....wrong again could play though that lad

[catchisthecry]

My favourites were Fitzgerald/fitzsimmons??? (can't remember his name)
and Scotty Simister

[Hondo]

Pretty sure he moved to the AFL - my memory tells me Essendon

He may have finished an AFL career and moved on somewhere else hence the small number of SANFL games

[nickname]

Hondo is right. It's actually 'Lachlan' Ross and after Kevin Morris moved back to Melbourne he worked for Essendon, who promptly drafted Darren Bartsch and Ross. There's a photo online somewhere of Ross taking an absolute screamer at Footy Park.

Yep- remember the mark, I reakon the photo won Ray Titus another photo of the year gong...

[Hondo]

I remember that photo too. It was the first thing I thought of when I saw the thread.

Here he is in an Essendon team photo from 1994. Second from left, front row:

Good get Hondo!

It was a great grab.

Lachlan Ross must have returned to West, because he also played a further 8 games for 4 behinds in 1996 for them.

Who's the South player suffering the choker hold?

[GWW]

Could it be Ian White, who I think played a few games for South after leaving North?

The South player is Peter McCarty. I used to work with him at the time and he was the butt of a number of jokes about that mark.

[GWW]

Ahh Peter McCarty. He was a good player for South. Where did he finish up after his SANFL career was over? I've got a small suspicion that he went to play in a country league, but more likely i think he played in the amateur league?

He played for Goodwood saints
