ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This website would not have been constructed without the ongoing help and contributions from a number of people.

To my co-editor Ken Anderson, "The Master" as I have nicknamed him for his enthusiasm and dedication to bringing out the hidden facts and dispensing knowledge and camaraderie about football and life in general.

To Adrian Collins, the tireless collector and assembler of football history. I hope we have gone some small way to preserving the facts , records and photos you have painstakingly collected over many years.

To John Stoward for his invaluable assistance and the provision of the facts contained within his great yearly annual about Tasmanian football.

To Ray Glover, a passionate Eagles/Hawks supporter who has provided invaluable information about his favourite players from the good old days.

To David Omant from the North Hobart Football CLub for providing access to information about former greats of the club and other incidental information.

To John Devaney for his help and permission to use excerpts of information he has collected and written about on his mammoth undertaking of a website - Full Points Footy.

To Brett "Buster" Jones for his help and accurate memories of some of the greats of Tassie footy.

To Noel Morrison for his help and that of AFL Tasmania.

To my wife Kathryn for putting up with the long hours in the garage when I said "I'll just be a minute" and emerged three or four hours later.

And finally to the publishers of the books and photos we have used to assemble all the facts and figures of this celebration of Tasmania's football greats.
