[edit] Aboriginals with the Socceroos

There was a statement in the article that Dodd is the first recognised aboriginal to play for the Socceroos.

Harry Williams is a recognised aboriginal, and he played for the Socceroos.

Check this out.

Age article

So I deleted that sentence.

I just created a stub for Harry Williams (footballer).

Other aboriginals who have played for the Socceroos include Jade North and John Moriarty.

Article on Moriarty.

Actually, scratch that last one: Moriarty was selected to the Socceroos, but never got to play a senior match because of the ban on Australia playing international soccer (1960-1963).

Yeh you are right, I think whoever put it in may have been confused - Dodd was the first Aboriginal to score a goal for Australia, but certainly not the first to play. – AlbinoMonkey ^(Talk) 22:41, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
