Ah man I actually found out that he does have a girlfriend.
Well, I guess I can still chase the currently untied Ollie.

Port Adelaide skipper Travis Boak headlines SA football’s 10 most influential players
PORT Adelaide captain Travis Boak is the most influential player in South Australian football.
If I were selecting 10 players from Port Adelaide and Adelaide to form the backbone of the best AFL side from the two clubs for 2015 — like a schoolyard pick — Boak would be No. 1.
The 26-year-old midfielder is the complete package.
An all-Australian in the past two seasons — his first two as Power skipper — Boak is an elite midfield runner who not only wins in and outside ball but inspires his teammates with his courage and ability to stand up in the big moments.

s**t list, no way is Walker 4
I agree. Our five players are much better than the Crows players lol
Talia is over rated. He's no better than 'Pate, and 'Pate rebounds better than he does. If umpires really start cracking down on scragging defenders he's in a bit of trouble. Hombsch will go past him within two years as well.
No issue with Walker at 4... He'd be the first player I'd take from them.
And on Dangerfield - "In full flight, no-one in SA football is better to watch".
While nobody can doubt Dangerfield's match winning abilities when in full flight there's plenty I'd rather watch. He's a see ball, get ball, smash through opponents type of player. For the ideal mix of power, grace and footballing nous it's hard to go past Hamish Hartlett when in full flight.

I just compared Talia & Hombsch stats on Footywire. Going by those stats he is already ahead of Talia. In two years time he will be a bloody good player for us. He will be 22 in march next year.

Kind of a Jagger-Tarzan
Ah man I actually found out that he does have a girlfriend.
Boak, or TSW?
Talia can beat his man as well as any defender in the league, be he doesn't run off his man and create or help out his team mates the way Carlile and Hombsch can and do.

For influence, Trengove is a must for that list....
Seriously, that list is basically a "we must fit 5 crows in the top 10 even if it kills us" list.
That's right. How many times have we seen Hombsch mark the ball forward or on the wing to repel an attack and then get back quickly. Sometimes I have had to rewind play just to see where he came from to get there lol
He even had a shot on goal Fremantle game...

But Andrew apparently knows best.

Love how it goes Port-Crows-Port-Crows like as if their players are even close to ours. If I was doing it, it would look something like this:
1. Travis Boak
1. Robbie Gray
3. Patrick Dangerfield
4. Chad Wingard
5. Taylor Walker
6. Rory Sloane
7. Ollie Wines
8. Hamish Hartlett
9. Sam Jacobs
10. Justin Westhoff
Daniel Talia wouldn't even rate in the top 20.

Probably about right in terms of pure consistency and runs on the board, but Hammer's upside > Sloane's.
He's had a girlfriend for over 4 years now but it's been on and off for about 6 month now. They're back seeing each other but it's not "officially" on again, they're still working through things. The girl I'm talking about was the one that appeared with him in the Fertilizer about a year ago (for the ones who remember). I know because she is my mates niece. She is not into the football scene, that's why she has only gone to the Brownlow once with Travis, since then she's told him to take Paul Stewart haha.
I'd swap Dangerfield with Walker. He's the most important player for the Crows

I would've thought even not being into footy she would be attracted to the glitz and glamour (dressing up, hobnobbing etc), guess not each to their own.
I'd swap Boak with Gray.
As much as I love Boaky, there are things we saw Robbie do week in week out this year, that nobody in this league should be able to do. The man is simply a freak- GAJ like.

Boak is there as the complete package - Player, captain, inspirational leader of men. He's clearly the most influential, important player right now.
