I hate to burst your bubble there, Scotty, but your list of big name Sturt boys is actually longer than it should be. You've had a few Sturt lads picked up, but very few names - in fact, Mattner's the biggest one to play for us.

Peter Caven - recruited from Sydney, drafted to Sturt
Stuart Wigney - recruited from Sydney, drafted to Sturt
Andrew Geddes - recruited from Strathmerton, drafted to Sturt
Brent Reilly - drafted from Vic U18, drafted to Sturt
Marty Mattner - you've got one there
Ben Nelson - came via Carlton
Matty Powell - drafted when he was at South, moved to Sturt later
Barry Standfield! Geez he was Dudd (yep, you're right with that one) - but he came to us from Footscray and was drafted to Sturt

The Sturt boys are really:
Marty Mattner
Seb Packer
Toby Kennett
Nick Laidlaw
Brenton Sanderson
Linden Stevens
Brodie Atkinson
Jarrodd Twitt (rookie listed in 99)

Ben Nelson was originally from Sturt before he went to Carlton to he should still count.

I thought Standfield was a decent forward.

Same here.The double tagging with Modra in the early games of 97 was superb.
I was at "that" Hawthorn game - silly boy cost him going further under Blighty.

You're right PP - drafted from Vic U18s, but played with Sturt.

Ben Parker

I think Blues Girl was thinking of Clint Kirey who played with Westies. He was a shocker.
