Andy Demetriou played 103 games for the Roos...who knew??!?

Question

So now he has a soft spot for the Kangas after admitting he played 103 games for the club....hmmmm how come I never heard of him?

Was he just a bench warmer??

Answer 1

I didn't even know he played Footy.

And for my beloved team???

CRAZY!!!! lol

Answer 2

whoooooooo

Answer 3

I doubt it, He is overweight like me.

Answer 4

He was their orange boy, & jockstrap washer.

His definition of playing was probably getting the balls that went over the fence at training ( he got to kick them back onto the ground!) Either that or his career was in the ressies or the U18s

Answer 5

Yeah I knew that but he wasn't that great, he didn't stink but didn't exactly shine either. 100+ games is a very good effort and in a time when your team are pretty good too.

I remember him more for his admin blunders eg "sydney will never win a premiership playing like that" ; said in 2005. Why say something like that at all especially if you are the top dog.

Answer 6

Oh he was a fairly decent mid-range player.  Probably about the same sort of level as, say Ken Hinckley or the Nankervis boys.  I think he may have even played in a premiership.  Not bad but not great.  The type of player you forget about fairly quickly.

Lou Richards could never pronounce his name (but that was nothing unusual for Lou)

Answer 7

Nah...In the days he played he was a skinny little fella, without the suit and glasses, and from memory I think he wore 24.     He was later shafted by the Roos and shifted to the Hawks .
