AFL Players And Their Old Photos.

[RedmanWasHere]

The idea is simple.

Find old photos of past and present AFL players and whack them in this thread.

If need be, go onto http://www.newsphotos.com.au/Home.asp where there is a myriad of photos.

This first photo comes from 2002.

It's a photo of Daniel Talia (Adelaide) and his brother Michael (Footscray) with some schoolmates.

Michael's the blonde one jumping.

.

This one is dated 11.11.2003.

In the middle is Chris Dawes (Melbourne.)

.

One more from this OP.

This is a 2006 photo of current North Melbourne midfielder Jordan Gysberts.

GO!

You can't beat a 15 year old who could grow a full moustache...

Looks like he was rejected from Hanson.

Luke Breust and Isaac Smith

Luke Breust and Isaac Smith in the same u12s team (Temora Kangaroos) in the NSW Riverina. Breust is in the front row, fourth from the left (coloured mouthguard) Smith is behind his right shoulder (dark hair, bowl haircut, looking at camera).

Nice helmet.

Uncanny that Breust and Smith are teammates again.
