Has there been a VFL/AFL player who has played more games than Crawf (with 305) before playing in a premiership team?

I don't think so.

I think I remember something about Marcus Ashcroft acquiring that record in the 2001 grand final after 268 games but then Paul Williams took the title in 2005. Crawf may have pipped him.

Crawf has the playing record.

Correct me if I am wrong but Roos has the record of most games as player and coach before winning a premiership as player/coach.

Yeah Ashcroft definitely had the record, I was reading about it last weekend, got it in 2001 with 274 games from memory.

Then Paul Williams succeeded him and now we have Crawf.
 
The other record I can think of is Bomber Thompson last year took the record for the most years at a club before winning the flag without getting sacked/resigned first.
