Heh. Perhaps not surprising - he would have folllowed Roberts Walls down there I guess.
My question then. Which former Swan, who achieved no other major distinctions in his career, kicked eight goals in a match against Sydney in 1995?

Why did Michael O'Loughlin's match against Richmond in 1997 end prematurely?
he did not exit correctly through the interchange gates and was not permitted to return to the ground
In a bizarre coincidence exactly the same thing happened to Richmond's David Bourke in the same match

Actually, the two events were related:

Who wore #4 at Sydney immediately before Tony Lockett?

McRae did wear #2 but he also wore #4 pre-1995. I suspect he gave it up for Plugger when he arrived at the club.
I say Liz is on the money - and so is grimlock.

Davis, Williams and Ball played under Malthouse.
Bolton and Williams both played under Matthews
Richards played under Sheedy
Hall played under Blight
Roos played under Walls and (I think) Parkin
Pretty sure none have played under Pagan or Williams.
So I reckon 6?
I wonder how many players have played under 3 premiership coaches (ala Williams). Pike may well have done but there can't be too many in recent history.

You have the number right, Liz, but not the six coaches in question. Ted Richards isn't a member of the 2005 flag, and none of the premiership players played under Sheedy. However Paul Roos, Michael O'Loughlin and Leo Barry played under Ron Barassi, so that makes six.
On the three premiership coaches thing, Blake Caracella has played under Malthouse, Matthews and Sheedy. Roos of course played under three. John Blakey played under Walls, Parkin and Pagan. I wonder if anyone has played under four?
