Tough guys don't draw hearts on their bedroom doors

"Courage under fire!" exclaims Robert Walls hard hitting article in today's age: http://www.theage.com.au/news/rfnews/glass-houses/2009/04/30/1240982346086.html ;)

Robert could count only three 100% couragous football players he's aware of: Gary Crane, Ken Hunter & Glenn Archer that never 'dogged it'.

A couple of our recent players I'd throw up for contention: Ball, Baker Hudgton - even B.Voss - threw themselves into the line of fire for scant regard for their own welfare.

Who are the most courageous players you have seen play the game?

Jacko, mainly because he was a nutbar so everyone else was shirking it before he had the chance to.

My memories of Jacko was more of his bark than bite. But he was an individual ...

Well yeah but the point being he always got stuck into them so that his mere presence brought about thoughts of "oh crap here's Jacko, quick run!"

Plus it was a joke.:p

Thompson and Hamill were never ones to back away either
