View Full Version : The Waynes
This was bought to my intention by my five year old daughter last night. Only three Waynes have ever played for the North Melbourne/Kangaroos Football Club, Wayne Carey, Wayne Schimmelbusch and Wayne Schwass. They are three legendary players at our football club, so maybe next draft day, we should be looking extra closely at any young players named Wayne.

We also drafted Wayne Morrissey in 1986
Pick number 59
This post was killing me, so I headed for the books.
Couldn't see any others though, but i'm sure there will be more WAYNE'S somewhere
Of course there will be. Wayne Jnr, Wayne the 1st 2nd 2rd and 4th
Another Wayne...Jules was wrong, she will be upset. Actually she'll be angry with me because she got that tidbit from a database I have on my PC.

So Devo what is included in your database...
I have about 10Mb of "useless, worthless" stats, mostly on the North Melbourne Football Club. Most of stats show how we compare with the other teams (not very well), but I am starting to include players stats in the datbase as well.
Included are:
Results of every game North has played in the VFL/AFL and preseason games. Would like to include VFA, but it's pretty hard to find those records.
Player stats from 1994 to the present. Will be expanded when I can get to the National Library.
League ladder for every round since 1925. Still working on this one
Details on everyone who has played for North in VFL/AFL. Games, Goals, behinds (where possible), period at the club, Jersey No, Awards and other clubs played for.
Win/Loss record against every team. Goals Behind F/A, Centuries F/A, winning streaks, losing streaks.
Overall League ladder - Wins/losses since 1897. Has been further broken down to include records for each decade, and for the Barassi and Pagan eras.
I can even tell when North scored their 100,000th point (Round 8 1987 Vs Carlton - MCG)or their 300th victory (Round 13 1974 Vs Footscray - Western Oval)
Plenty of worthless stats, but it keeps me away from the pub.

I have all result back to about 1897... and a few from a couple of years earlier... and squadlists back to 1925... it is all in a word document...
admittedly I have not touched it for a couple of years...
Rooboy, Where did you find the VFA results?? I'd like to create database on our VFA days, but I can't find any info that far back here in Canberra.
