Universal Love MFC History Draft

[Theseventhhamster]

Need a wing and there's a triple premiership winger available. 125 games for 61 goals, he was tall and fast enough to win a Castlemaine Gift. Looks like a solid unit too:

My clever ruse to tell you all the +100 plus game players so you didn't pick the -100 game player I had in mind clearly worked, though I'm not sure it was really required. Selection 103, player number #1159 - I've got a terrifying ruckman and a frightening back pocket but it's time to pick somebody who scared opposition sides for a totally different reason. Ladies and gentlemen, it's the Silver Fox.

Damn it, he was my next pick. He also lead the goalkicking for the Dees in a particular season for another achievement.

Loved him. Shits all over Robbo as a footballer outside of that gallant season Robbo played at CHF.

Disappointed you didn't draft Craig Smoker in your inebriated wisdom.

If only it was my turn, Chris Lamb would have been a certainty.

 

[Dory_77]

For my next 2 picks a couple of 'backs. Firstly, Rowley Fischer; 137 games, 34 goals, played ruck, CHF and back pocket. Played in a flag in '39 and origin in'37 and '39.
The other will be Tony Sullivan. Played 191 games for just 1 goal. A good, defensive HBF who was good at shutting down his opponent.

Was keen on T. Sulivan, but now that he's gone as I'm also desperate for a winger I'll go for a 1900 premiership player and 1904 Olympic hurdler. I'm all about the pace and am probably buggered in this competition anyway so am prepared to take a chance on...

I think we'll let Theseventhhamster select next. Once G2B is available, he can make up as many selections as he has missed.

 

[Theseventhhamster]

74 games for 146 goals he was a mid sized quick forward who kicked 5 goals in the winning 1956 grand final and topped the goal kicking with 56 goals in the next year's flag side. Pissed off to Tassie for a pay rise at 24.

Some great players and wonderful memories among those already selected. Must say I'm surprised not have seen Ross Dillon, Greg Parke, Peter Giles or Warren Dean get a mention yet.

Yeah maybe just skip me a few times. Going through some s**t at the moment, might have to take a break.

Selection 109: Barrie Vagg.

Honours:
115 games, 132 goals
Premiership Player - 1964
Leading Goalkicker - 1965, 1966
150 Heroes selection
Reserves Premiership player - 1969
Reserves leading goalkicker - 1969

A premiership half-forward flanker, the inclusion of Vagg sees a slight positional re-structure of my team (for now - I'm sure it will change again). Vagg moves onto the HBF, replacing Hassa Mann, who is freed up to play in the midfield. He will take the ruck rover position, and Greg Healy will move into the centre.

^Bugger. It was between Vagg and Arnold for my last pick. I was hoping I could get both in the end.

Interestingly, I would have had Arnold at CHB rather than CHF, though.
