Noddy Plays His 400th Game

Noddy and Whenso

On the 19th July 2013 Neil “Noddy” O’Dea played his 400th game for SHOCFC, joining an exclusive club of two.  President, Treasurer and Secretary of the “400 Club”, Tony Whennan, welcomed Noddy to the club and reminded him that the great Mark “Tubby” Taylor declared when he reached “The Don’s” record of 334, expecting no less when he reaches 401!!

A terrific crowd turned out to congratulate Noddy, and he was joined on his special day by many of his past and present team-mates, some of whom travelled from interstate to be with him to celebrate.  To see  pictures of the day, click here.  And look for the photo of the high profile former teammate who popped in on his way to a function at his “other” club.
