Notes
Starblaydia All-Time XI Nomination, AOCAF 4, 7 & 8 Winner

Fernando De Marco has in his possession three AOCAF Winners' medals, making him the most-decorated Starblaydia 'keeper ever at International level. He was also perennial captain of the AOCAF team. His total of three AOCAF titles is unique in Starblaydi football, as he was just a 19 year-old substitute for the first triumph, though a veteran - and Captain - of 31 and 35 years of age for the other two.

Corinthian Spirits have always been known for their 'keepers, whether it was the one-and-only Boaz Myhill or his understudy, the great De Marco himself. Strangely enough, for a team playing - usually - such exciting football, their defence has always been open enough to require an excellent 'keeper, and De Marco is just that.
