O'Loughlin 1 Goodes 2

[snajik]

This Sunday against the Roos Goodesy will draw level with Cressa as the player to have played the second highest number of games for the Bloods. Next week he will be second highest on his own. I suspect that there would be no other team that would have two Indigenous players sitting one and two. A great honour but kind of odd they they happen to be the only two Indigenous players currently on our list.

I suspect that in a couple of years time they will still be sitting 1 & 2 but in reverse order as Goodesy goes on to become the second player to hit the 300games mark.

I'm pretty sure Rantall, Bayes, Browning and maybe even Wright would be ahead of Goodes?

Goodes (243 games) actually has a few more to pass before reaching number two on the list, with Mark Bayes (246), Stephen Wright (246), Mark Browning (251), and John Rantall (260), still ahead of him also.

He is 2 behind Creswell (who is 2nd) according to this list

1986-2009.
AFL Tables - Player Statistics - Sydney - (1986-2009)

In the ALL time list he is one behind Creswell (who is 6th).

I'll have to blame sleep deprivation for that one. I was looking at a list of (Sydney) Swans as opposed to an all-time list. (Oops) Apologies messrs Wright, Browning, Bayes and turncoat Rantall.

Suffice to say that he should be sitting in position #3 all-time by season's end and pass Rantall by this time next year when I may revisit this post with a greater degree of conviction.

So to clarify O'Loughlin and Goodes will be 1 & 2 for players that have played with the Sydney version exclusively.

Didn't Bayes play exclusively for the Sydney version?

............unless of course you include Mark Bayes.

Premature exhaltation!

Time for some shut-eye.

Whatever his ranking is, I'm looking forward to the days Goodesy plays his 250th and 300th games for the Swans.

GOODES!

[snajik]

Now that I am no longer using Godwin Grech as my primary source of information I can state with certainty that one A Goodes will on Saturday night move into outright third position in total games played as a Swan. Only Rantall and Micky O above him now. Therefore I am bumping this thread accordingly.

[ScottH]

And Leo will equal one B Skilton.
And Crouch will surpass one J Cleary.
And Kirk will equal one P Kelly.

[snajik]

And Kirk will equal one P Kelly.

Or should that read two of our finest fullbacks - A Dunkley and R 'Tilt' Carter?

Be warned Scott. This thread is cursed.
