Subiaco Team Of The Century
I'm a bit late with this one (but arguably not as late as Subiaco), and I'm indebted to regular Full Points Footy correspondent Julio for bringing it to my attention, but the Subiaco Football Club has now joined every other club in the WAFL except Claremont, South Fremantle and Peel by naming an official 'Team of the Century'. The team, in full, reads:
Backs: | Dwayne Lamb | Brian Sarre | Lou Daily |
Half Backs: | Laurie Kettlewell | Brighton Diggins | Billy Faul |
Centres: | Jack 'Snowy' Hamilton | Peter Featherby | Dean Kemp |
Half Forwards: | George Young | Phil Matson | Gary Buckenara |
Forwards: | Alistair Pickett | Austin Robertson | Tom Outridge |
1st Ruck: | Mike Fitzpatrick (captain) | Haydn Bunton senior | Johnny Leonard |
Interchange: | Laurie Keene | Fred Williams | Drew Banfield |
| Brett Heady | | |
Coach | Haydn Bunton junior | | |
There are quite a few more recent, ready recognisable names listed in the above team.
One that should be highlighted is the name of Jack "Snowy" Hamilton on the left side wing........also a former Rooster Champion back in the 20's and 30's and coached our Club in 1937 and 38.
