I'm absolutely stoked that my next player has made it back to me.

My next pick for the All-Time Draft is...

Ocker. Or as I like to call him, "The Third Coming of Bradman in the WAFL". (Yes, I now have three Bradman's :P )



Austin "Ocker" Robertson, Jnr is the most prolific goalkicker ever to play in the WAFL. In the 251 games he played for Subiaco (from 1962 - 1974) he kicked a record goal tally of 1211 goals; a record that still stands today. He also played a season for South Melbourne in 1966 where he kicked another 64 goals.

During his career, he topped the WAFL goalkicking list a record 8 times (compared to Doig and Naylor who only managed 6 times), was Subiaco's best and fairest twice in 1965 and 1968 and was also a member of Subiaco's premiership side in 1973.

I also tracked down his career goalkicking table which I thought I'd share just to show how dominant this guy was.



   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   

Season	Team	Games	Goals	Behinds	Average
1962	Subiaco	21	89	40	4.23
1963	Subiaco	21	79	44	3.76
1964	Subiaco	22	94	55	4.27
1965	Subiaco	21	108	54	5.14
1966	South Melbourne	19	64	33	3.37
1967	Subiaco	20	104	63	5.20
1968	Subiaco	21	162	70	7.71
1969	Subiaco	21	114	63	5.42
1970	Subiaco	21	116	70	5.52
1971	Subiaco	20	111	70	5.55
1972	Subiaco	21	98	71	4.66
1973	Subiaco	24	77	53	3.20
1974	Subiaco	17	59	35	3.47
TOTAL		269	1275	721	4.74

Close to 2,000 scoring shots. Just imagine if he'd been a bit more accurate!  :o :o



As Ocker was a short forward at only 182cms, so I've chucked him in the pocket.

Holy cow, that's a powerful forward line! Accumulatively, between my 6 forwards they have kicked a total of over 5600 goals!  :o :o Let's see your team's stop that.  8)

Again, I'm very happy with that pick and very happy with how my team looks so far. Which is:

FB: Smith, Regan, Thorp
HB:_____, Clegg, Motley
C: _____, _____, _____
HF: Brereton, Hart, Kernahan

Followers: Stynes, Dyer, Whitten

I thought he was already taken :|
He isn't, you're in the clear.
I would have taken him myself had I known, and hoped Jenkins lasted another round :/
