Brian Colbey dashing across half-back. SA v Vic 1969 Adelaide Oval. After the carnival, Colbey was the second Bay (after Neil Davies 1953) to be named All-Australian.
Ray Curnow was the backbone of the Bays from 1931-1972. 88 games as a player, coach for 5 years, and then club secretary which meant doing everything. The club foyer is righty named in his honour.
In 1999 Richard Kelly helped the Bays into the finals and won the Best & Fairest ... enough to be knighted by ABC commentators. 48 games 7 goals.
Although property steward George Brown never played a game for the Bays, his tackle on North Adelaide's Jack Sutter in 1968 is legend. The dispute was over which ball to replace one that was lost in the crowd - Rooster Red or Glenelg Gold.
Rex 'Noddy' Voigt could have had 9 goals in the 1973 Grand Final - hit the post once and still questions one called touched on the line. He had to be satisfied with these 7.
Ken Smith having his beak tweaked by South's Peter Mahoney at the Bay in 1969. Smith played 75 games in four seasons. Old school half-back who never gave an inch or kicked a goal.
In 1955 Charles 'Chooka' May was appointed coach of the Bays. Thought to be the first full-time SANFL coach, his role included working with schoolboys 5 days per week. He lifted Glenelg off the bottom & in 1956 was pitted against his son Wally May who was captain-coach of Sturt.
Matthew Bode barely filled out the famous #10 guernsey as a 20-year-old in 1999 - his second year at the Bay. Played 87 games with 98 goals in between a 108-game AFL career. @CarltonFC
This is how Max Proud used the first minutes of his retirement after 170 games for the Bays - premiership captain.
Josh Scott broke his arm twice during the 2019 season and so managed only 10 games. He returned in time to boot three goals in the preliminary final and another three in the premiership win... in what was his final match with the Bays. 90 games 151 goals.
Cliff Brooker played 61 games between 1949-51. He is seen here being protected by his ruckman Don Laffin. The rover did his knee against Port in the 1950 preliminary final and so missed the grand final. West Adelaide players are Glynn Williams (left) and Hedley Trestrail
The second generation wearing number 12 - Chad Cornes - 43 games and 46 goals for the Bays.
Round 16 1950 at Glenelg Oval - Arthur Hannaford goaled in the dying minutes to give the Bays a 5-point win over North Adelaide and a place in the finals for the first time since 1934. Known mostly as a defender, Hannaford kicked just 15 goals in 129 games. 1937-51
Bruce Long rucking against Jim Forsyth of West Torrens on a wet Saturday at the Bay in July 1968. Bob Gibson and Lindsay Head looking for crumbs. Long followed his brother Doug from Geelong to Glenelg and played 32 games.
Mick Fitzgerald was recruited from Port Noarlunga. Neatly averaged one goal per game - 27 of each. 1967-70 @FitzySA
As a back pocket, Dick Bone stood the resting rovers including Jack Oatey & Fos Williams. 'The main thing is to watch the ball - I would feel where they were rather than look at them - once you looked away from the ball you were gone.' 1952-58, 72 games. Vale
Harry Kernahan wearing number 22 for SA in the famous win over Victoria on the MCG in 1963 - kicks to Jeff Potter in the square but Kevin Murray is awarded the mark.
Geoff Shepherd 1966-71 36 games
Round 19, 1964 at the Bay. Neil Sutherland uses John Long as a step ladder to take the mark of the day. Sutherland 50 games 34 goals Long 26 games, 4 goals
Ken Eustice was a textbook model for young players in the 1960s - came to the Bay for his final three league seasons and in 52 games was B/F, vice-captain and played in two grand finals.
