    Need help. Who is this and what year is that?

    :eek: This is going to be difficult. Apologies to the Hughson family, as this is not from 1938. Noel Price is sitting next to Frank Curcio. Price began with the club in 1939! Anyway, after searching through Jim Main's book, FITZROY and checking statsrleague. I am able to identify; ?, Arthur...

    Re: Celebrity Roy boys As a kid at the Junction Oval, I recall some regulars in the Social Club Members' area. John Blackman, Sir Frank Wilkes, The Cop Shop Actors(Paula Duncan, John Orcsic, Gil Tucker...) and at other games during the 1970's, '80's and '90's, Jon English and John Waters might...
