Seems reasonable accurate in content (clubs-wise), but like you, that dates aren't quite right IMO.

The Williams deal is the key, as it was one of the more complex trades ever completed. At the time, deals had to involve 2 clubs only per trade, so Carlton put together the deals for other clubs involved (Fitzroy & Hawthorn) in order to orchestrate Greg Williams move to Princes Park. As a result, a couple of players were effectively traded to clubs for the time it took to fax their transfer to the next club in the deal, which muddies the waters when you're trying to work out years later who actually played for who.
