Bio: Capable of holding down several positions on the field, Schimmelbusch excelled most on the wing and half-forward flank.

Courageous and relentless, he often worked himself to the point of physical breakdown and exhaustion just to get North over the line. He was a prolific goal kicker and was an integral part of the 1975 and 1977 premiership teams.

Schimmelbusch took over as captain of the club in 1979 and held the role for ten seasons. He lead the side to six finals campaigns and most notably its controversial Escort Cup win over Collingwood in 1980.

He appeared in 29 finals matches in his 306 game career which ended prematurely after a knee injury against Sydney. It occurred just weeks after he captained Victoria against South Australia in the State of Origin.

Bio: A tough and courageous on-baller, Stevens earned a reputation as one of the toughest players in the competition; a player who regularly put his body on the line without any hesitation or fear of injury.

While he initially made his name as a tagger, opposition teams were forced to try shut down his ball winning ability and dangerous long kick.

His gritty determination and never-say-die attitude enabled him to play in the 1999 premiershipwith a broken ankle. He finished the day as a valuable contributor and had a premiership medal hanging proudly around his neck.

Stevens was an inspirational captain and his other career highlights included the 1996 premiership and All-Australian selection in 1998. He also won the club's best and fairest award in 1997 and 1999. 

Stevens will long be regarded as one of the game’s true tough men.
