Paul Williams

A member of the Tasmanian Team of the Century, Paul Williams was drafted to Collingwood as a schoolboy and after a controversial move to the Sydney Swans in 2001, played in an AFL premiership in his 294^th game. The Williams story has many fascinating chapters. From family run pubs, fish and chip shops and Tasmanian state league football, to the tragedy of losing the man he refers to as his on-field minder, Magpie teammate Darren Millane. He played on Nicky Winmar the day he famously lifted his jumper pointing to his skin at Victoria Park, and Williams currently sits on the AFL tribunal, where he wants to see change.
