Early 90s crows player/cop

[DeanoT]

Can any of you remember the name of a player from the early Crow days who played a handful of games and was built like a tank, who was also a cop ? Possibly even Special Operations ? A mate of mine and I were having a discussion about it today, and I can't remember who it was.

Paul Patterson?

Was either Patterson or Allan Bartlett.

Oh god dont ever mention Allan Bartlett's name here again, brings back memories of when he cost us that game against North Melbourne at the MCG back in 1991.

I always find it funny that he was the first Crows player out on to Football Park when the Crows played there first ever game against Hawthorn in '91, as he was working as an on patrol Police officer at the ground

Pretty sure that Randall Bone went on to be a cop as well.

Pretty sure that Randall Bone went on to be a cop as well.

Definitely Patterson. I thought Bone was a security guard.

 

[Mr Crow!]

Pretty sure that Randall Bone went on to be a cop as well.

With a name like that, you would have thought he'd have entered into pr0n!

Went on a bucks night with PP. I would say he was a bit of a lad but for the fact that he was a lot of a lad! Some of the starries had a bad reputation when out on the p*ss and the bouncers at Heaven wouldn't even let some of them in.

Pretty sure that Randall Bone went on to be a cop as well.

That he did, remember seeing him 'on the beat' so to speak. Reckon I saw him on crime stoppers once or perhaps the news- Detective Bone now.
