He is a Romanian Gypsy who frequents Milan's Railway Station ? :-k

When we travelled through Rome late last year we were warned about pickpocketting gypsies but that they dressed as everyday folk rather than the more commonly perceived earring, sash , bandana etc .
My six year spent our entire time in Italy asking me if every second person was a gypsy , and if they were gonna steal his iPod, or worse , steal HIM!

[mickdo]

Didn't play @ the Knights. Was from the 60s @ Parra

the answer to number 3 perplexes me greatly...if Marty Fagan made his fg debut with Sterlo in the 78 semi final, why wasn't his name listed in the players number list in 1978??

Gee, that narrows it down :lol:

Sterlo made his first grade debut off the bench in the second round game v St George at Cumberland Oval. He made his run-on debut in that infamous semi-final replay.

Gee, that narrows it down :lol:

But at least it rules out all the options from the 80s & 90s

Well, I'm not going to just throw players names from the 60's out at random. Too hard for me.

ok, that being the case he still made his debut in 1978, Fagan's name doesn't appear in the players number list for that season or any season for that matter..the encyclopedia of rl players states that he did play 1 game but for the life of me the club hadn't listed his number..this could be a big error in the clubs part as all numbers need to be shifted to make way for him :lol:

Oops!

 

[born an eel]

hope nobody has a tattoo like Michael Slater#-o

 

[Stagger eel]

just thinking about this a bit more, could the numbers be handed out to players who have started the game rather than those who came on as a replacement in the pre interchange days???
