For no particular reason, I am trying to work out which cricketers have played first-class cricket for three different Australian states. I'm pretty sure that no-one has played for four states and of course heaps have played for two.

I haven't done any research, so these are the ones I can come up with off the top of my head:
Graeme Watson (Vic, WA & NSW)
Gary Cosier (SA, Vic & Qld)
Trevor Chappell (SA, WA & NSW)
Dirk Wellham (NSW, Qld & Tas)
Shane Watson (NSW, Qld & Tas)
Colin Miller (SA, Tas & Vic)

I also think that Rod McCurdy may have played for three states - Vic, SA and Tas.

Any others? And are the above correct?

Has Theo Doroploulus played for 3 states ? WA,SA and I'm sure he played a ODD or T20 [before BBL] for the Vics about 3 years ago.He was certainly playing in Melbourne and was mentioned at one stage playing in a Shield game.
Don't think he played a game for the Vics. He was down here for a while and dominated for Northcote but I'm pretty sure he never played for Victoria.

You are right.I looked up Cricinfo and the Vics weren't listed as a team he played for.
 
shane watson?
he moved to Tassie to play cricket there, then back to Queensland to play with the bulls then has moved down to be based in NSW

Thats all of 'em

EDIT: I guess with it being wikipedia there may be omissions.
Well, it looks like they have missed Miller for a start.

I'd have to check a couple of these, but I reckon this is the list to date:
Bevan (SA, NSW & Tas)
Miller (SA, Vic & Tas)
McCurdy (SA, Vic & Tas)
Watson G (Vic, WA & NSW)
Watson S (Tas, Qld & NSW)
Chappell T (SA, WA & NSW)
Cosier (SA, Vic & Qld)
Wellham (NSW, Tas & Qld)
Blizzard (Vic, Tas & SA)
Jurgensen (Qld, WA & Tas)
