Oldest Fitzroy player?

[goswannies]

How old was the oldest player to have played with Fitzroy (ie his age in his final game for the lions ... not Brisbane tho)

Here you go

AFL Tables - All Time Player List - Fitzroy

Just sort it by age at last game and you come up with Charlie Norris. 37 years 18 days.

Nope. Making a birthday gift for a friend who plays for a team called the Fitzroy Lions (same jumper too). Wanted to write a message that he wasn't far off breaking the age record for playing for Fitzroy & ironically he's turning 37 so if he plays on next year he'll be older than Charlie Norris's 37 years and 18 days (albeit at a lower grade, armature level). Perfect!

Good idea.. good luck with it.

Thanks! The gift "idea" is making footy cards of him based on the old Fitzroy scanlens footy cards, sealing them in a footy card packet & providing a Perspex frame that shows both sides of the cards for him to store/display them in - the message for birthday card is the finishing touch.
