Marty McGrath?

[skybeau]

Was just listening to the couldabeen champions and heard the regular segment where they bring up a past player who never made it in the AFL and todays was Marty McGrath. I was just wondering, why was he delisted? Was he just considered another player in the mould of Krak or Petts, but inferior? Or just didnt show enough in his time at Richmond and was kicked out, after only 4 games (and that wonderful debut)?

why didnt we trade him to west coast then?
(mostly a joke, but he came from the west, correct?)

thanks for that, i always wondered. They danced around it very nicely on the show..."strangely delisted for unknown reasons"

I read that. Apparently he kicked 12 in one of them. Perhaps Essendon should get him back to replace lloyd... :hihi
