Aaah, the glory days of the Victorian Redbacks.
Below is the 1997 squad – see how many you can remember? Bonus points if you get their nicknames according to the media pack at the time!!
Great to see that some of these players are still kicking around…and in SL1 no less!

Would i be right in saying 11 Aussie Reps, 1 Korean Rep and 2 Aussie u/21 reps? Coach JI or Fresh?? Manager Max? Physio Silver? Doctor Pete?
May 8th, 2008 at 8:11 am
J = MUHC

”Great to see some of these players still kicking around”
could you be more patronising nick?
May 8th, 2008 at 8:59 am
Your all wrong. Clearly B is wayne rooney

Ash is still kicking around in Pennant B. Played against him the other day and he still know’s how to “fire up and get angry!” Showed some old RedBack class with a nice hit on Mick Gallo.

I watched that game Alf. It was pretty crash and bash. There were a few walking wounded after the match. Cameron Monte’s comeback game didn’t end too well.
May 8th, 2008 at 3:16 pm
Galo is in my dream team, get him out of Penn B and back onto his left post in state league
May 8th, 2008 at 3:28 pm
Coach was Charlie Gillon. I don’t doubt you Jazz, but I can only get 10 aussie reps. Who were your 11?
May 8th, 2008 at 4:05 pm
Luke. yep, 10 is correct. i had in my mind 11 when i counted the internationals including Kym. -Sorry.
Not many 1 team players there, huh? There’s probably 3 or 4 guys that played their careers at 1 club (excluding B & P who went to perth fairly young & havent returned), and they all seem the ‘wellers!!! i see 11 or 12 (noddy only play at KEW?) that have played SL1 for at least 2 clubs.
