Yes, it looks like it! It doesn't make a lot of sense, since they must have been informed by the AFL about the changes needed to the list for this year's book. Why wouldn't the AFL have those three sitting 7th, 8th and 9th on their oldest living players list?!
I like this bit on Cliff Riley's Wiki page:
It should give him something to aim at/inspire him, for sure!

They really should include Hall of Famers who didn't play in the AFL too in this list. Marsh, Todd, James etc. Be nice to include all top level players, but that is probably asking too much.

RIP.
Played one of the best games of footy that I've seen. Him and a 16 year old Steve Coniglio, mouth watering.

Bit of a howler in the Media Guide which nobody seems to have noticed so far: its' the Footscray John Schultz (Brownlow in 1961, Team of the Century) that has passed away, NOT the former St Kilda player from the mid 80s.
Given that John's death was well-publicised, it's hard to see how they got it wrong.
