Your favourite ever indigenous player?

[MUYB]

Farmer for sentimental reasons, right time growing up to idolise his ridiculous talent on the field.

Picking someone from outside my club? Goodes. Champion off the field and for my money the best utility to ever play, can and has played basically every position and done it well.

Not everyone with dark skin is aboriginal. Kerr is of Indian extraction

Wirrapunda, Maurice Rioli, Stephen Michael

Tell that to Sheeds - he's the one who picked him in his Indigenous All-Stars!!!

 

[chazwazza]

Michael Graham, Sturt 1970's & 80's

 

[awaremind]

McLeod Best player I saw live I reckon

 

[WSmith]

Winmar obviously. No one picked up the ball in full sprint better than him.
The most underated player of all time.

Abraham

Micky O

 

[Jak!x]

Shaun Burgoyne

 

[King_Steele]

Wanganeen & Mcleod.

Can't split them.

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

Peter Matera dodging weaving dual sided kicking goals.
Could be best on ground with 15 possessions, because of his hurt factor.
Just a joy to watch.

 

[WALDENPOND]

Maurice Rioli.

 

[mike123]

Right now, Eddie Betts.

All time, Leon Davis.

 

[baldandbroke]

Of all time - 50/50 Mcleod and Jarman

Currently - Eddie betts

Huh?

 

[Freeeoo]

Maurice Rioli is best I've seen.

Also loved the way Dale Kickett went about it. Absolutely fearless.

 

[Percel]

Pickett, was really hoping he'd decapitate someone.

 

[schmuttt]

The wiz was incredible, unfortunately I don't think he lived up to his ability.

The whole Jurrah situation still makes me sad, he was on the way to something special before he lost the plot.

 

[Boxx]

Wirrpanda

Followed by Burgoyne/Rioli/Franklin

Good to see Peter get a vote...


For me its not even a contest - Gavin Wanganeen

 

[sonnywalters]

Dale Kickett.
Went nuts in that derby and Freo have been good ever since.

 

[PorcelainBus]

Phil Narkle

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

Gavin Wanganeen, could play him almost anywhere. Could be a lock down defender, a rebounding defender, a brilliant inside mid, a gut running outside mid or an unstoppable goal sneak.

As a kid, watching Phil & Peter matera, Chris Lewis & wirrpanda was awesome as an Eagles fan. Peter matera was always my favourite, and will still watch the 92 grand final just to hear "matera... Sets sail for home... With a mighty kick!"

Ashley sampi also had some supreme ability, just not the work rate to go with it, which was such a shame.

Of current players, I do like watching Cyril play, as well as buddy. Both can cut you up with just a few touches.

But my favourite of all the current players is Michael Walters. He can do it all. Take a high mark, kick a goal off two steps, works hard both ways.

Such a good story too.
