Throughout a players career, he is probably going to go around in the ressies at some stage.
Whether it's at the start of his career, or later on either due to a form lapse or coming back
from injury.
How many past players can you think of in your time as a bluebagger , that didn't play in the 2's.

Using a qualifiying period of a minimum of 100 games played.
I can only think of 4.

Nick.

Jezza.

Southby.

Hunter. PS make that 6. Sticks and Braddles

Probably more, but not too many. Who are they ?

Kenny Hunter definitely played in the Reserves, I clearly remember him playing one out at full forward in a VFL final.

I am also sure I saw Southby at the end of his career in the Reserves.

I know he has not played 100 games yet but not sure I recall Keuzer playing any Bullants games?

Good call on Kreuzer. Injured at the start of last year, straight in and hasn't missed a game since.

Hunter ? That one got past me. Pretty sure Southby didn't. Maybe The Blueseum can adjudicate. :wink:

Haven't played 100 games yet either - but neither Murphy or Gibbs have played in the 2nds. Murphy played Rd 1 up until he got injured and then came straight back into the seniors Rd 1 next year if I remember correctly.

Juddy played one WAFL game for 30+ touches and couple of snags, the rest is history

I'm pretty certain Southby played a few reserves games in 1974. He took a long time getting over the whack he received from that thug Balme after the 73 GF. Did his confidence in terribly. If I recall he actually played a couple of games as a forward.

Gibbsy played a couple of reserves games for the Bays when he was 15 :grin:

Andrew McKay IIRC didn't play too may magoo games....

Don't think Kreuzer, Gibbs or Murphy have (don't quote me on Gibbs though)

Camporeale definitely never did

What about the Buzz? Did he play any reserves games?

Who am I, I kicked 738 goals and not one was in the early game.

I also had a friend from Adelaide who played 375 games and never played in the early game despite playing cricket early in his career and missing several pre-season games.

There was also this other guy who played 60 odd games in my jumper and never played early, as he was probably sleeping.
