If we could take him we would take him, but we can't so we shan't. His fathers games were not all played in the period of eligibility (1965-1985). Shawn Colbung snr never played his 150th until 1987.

He is a cousin of Jeff Farmer whose son is a very talented footballer. You have probably never heard of him because you live in Sydney.

You have probably never heard of him because you live in Sydney.But I was well into WAFL in the 1980s and I've either never heard of him or erased him from my memory. I'm sure most other players who played 150 WAFL games in that era I would remember.
Who was he?
Who did he play for?
When did he play?

We have already put in a request for a rule change like Adelaide has, if they accept Adelaides proposal, they will surely accept our more reasonable proposal.

Hopefully he takes after a more younger version of his cousin than the current day one.

I played with him in Juniors...EASILY the best player I ever played with! Simply amazing, could be anything. Was playing league by age 15(the league side which ended up winning 7 premierships in a row so it wasn't easy to get a spot). Played for the Royals in Albany.
