Almanac Teams: Arrivals and Departures (North Melbourne)

 

 

This year for football teams I have gone back to a theme. A team of Arrivals and Departures at each club. I hope the teams go down well.

 

The criteria for each team

• Based each team of players from 1980 onwards;
• Have tried to put a player in from each of the remaining 18 teams, including Fitzroy on most occasions;
• Have tried to be as balanced as possible, though the interchange regardless of balance will be next best four players;
• The player is based on from previous club and to immediate next club;
• Stats are based on the club and for arrivals, the immediate club before and for departures, the immediate club after;
• The Arrivals team is based on the performance at the club, while Departures is based on the performance at their new club.

 

If I’ve missed anyone, please advise, and please enjoy.

 

 

As was mentioned in the Melbourne post last week, the complete imbalance of swaps between the two clubs is a notable part of these sides. Plenty of rucks in McKernan, Capuano, Hale, Goldstein, and McIntosh have left and as well as forward/rucks in Moran, Hewitt, Easton, Leigh Brown, and Hepburn. Ten members of the 1999 premiership team joined another club. They are Pickett, Martyn, Pike, Bell, Allison, Carey, Mooney, McKernan, Shannon Motlop, Capuano, and Welsh. The 1996 team also has a round figure of ten with Schwass, Anderson, Rock, Freeborn, Martyn, Bell, Carey, McKernan, Capuano and Allison.
