[bettsie]

Its been posted many times, still worth a laugh..
Minton-Connel unlucky to make his 4th side at Sydney.

 

[weagles_fan]

Lynch and Wilson shouldnt' be in there for the Eagles.

 

[Silvagnis]

Mark Athorn! Andrew Merrington,Andrew Balkwill,Ben Nelson,O'Reilly-all before David Kernahan who were worse.

 

[rizzo]

Swap cam mooney for Jason mooney

 

[Firrito24]

no room for Shane Clayton?

 

[Farrand]

Brad Dodd was good.

And can I move to have Carey placed in Adelaide. Then he gets kudos for being in North's best, and Adelaide's worst.

 

[evertonfc]

Can someone please update that to include Peter Street at both Geelong and Western Bulldogs.

Anyway, of that lot, my vote for the best line:

Adelaide:

C Simon Tregenza Matthew Liptak Martin McKinnon

Tregenza and Liptak were more than decent in the early days, while McKinnon seemed to find some pretty good form at times, too.

The worst line?

Collingwood:

HF: Andrew PUGSLEY Athos HYRISOLAKIS Andrew TRANQUILLI

Just for the names, anyway.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Lynch and Wilson shouldnt' be in there for the Eagles.

I'd say Paul Harding stands out a hell of a lot more than Q or Wilson.

Seen this lot way back, still confused as to why Harding would be in there, maybe they meant Dean Irving.

 

[JUBJUB]

How the hell is Paul Lynch in the Geelong side ?
I think you'd hardly find a Geelong supporter that would say he was bad.
His career was ruined by hamstring injuries.

FREMANTLE (1995-2003)
B Jay Burton Mark Gale Brad Rowe
HB Scott Chisolm Michael Brown Brendon Feddema
C Stuart Anderson Phil Gilbert Bradd Dodd>
HF L.Wardell-Johnson Brad Bootsma John Hutton
F Simon Eastaugh Daniel Hargraves Quenton Leach
R Clinton Wolf Tony Delaney Jamie Merillo
INT Matthew Clucas Todd Ridley Garth Taylor Todd Menegola

Seriously what can you say other than....
Neesham you complete and utter moron...

 

[Alberton_Magpie]

No Room for a Port Side?

 

[rizzo]

Same with wooley and his knees

 

[ManWithNoName]

No room for Henno?

 

[Leg_Spinning_Sensation]

way too much time on ur hands dude. Scott Chisholm isnt bad. Rob Pyman shouldnt be in any of those sides. Good player he was so take him out or i crush u. Quintin Lynch? bit harsh

 

[gold cup 1996]

Just had this emailed to me, didn't know if it has been posted previously, apologies if it has.


KANGAROOS
B Brady Anderson Danny Stevens Ryan Pagan
HB Glen Gorman Keenan Reynolds Chris Groom
C Warren Campbell John Barnett Joe McLaren
HF Garry Dhurray David Bourke Jason Daniltchenko
F Julian Kirzner A. Mellington Evan Hewitt
R Adam Lange David Calthorpe Trent Nicholls
INT Gareth John Eric Lissenden Dylan Smith John Spaull

I would have Kristian Bardsley ( Anning ) in for Nicholls because I thought Nicholls was good for us in 1994 & good part of 1995 & then fell away a bit & Marty Christiansen in for maybe Dhurkay.

 

[94_Eagles]

There were millions worse players than Lynch to play for Eagles in that period.

 

[raskolnikov]

David Calthorpe, Henno and Michael Symons unlucky omissions for Essendon.

COLLINGWOOD
B: Dale BAYNES Damien HOULIHAN Paul SHARKEY
HB: Luke GODDEN Cameron VENABLES Kent BUTCHER
C: Brad OBORNE John BARNETT Nick HIDER
HF: Andrew PUGSLEY Athos HYRISOLAKIS Andrew TRANQUILLI
F: Brad FULLER Ben WILSON Brad PLAIN

EMER: Adrian McADAM Brett CHALMERS Jonathon ROSS

*Apologies to Andrew Hill, Stuart Mangin, Ricky Olarenshaw, Brent Tuckey, Robert Pyman, Frank Raso, Jason Taylor, Brad Rowe, Jason Wild & James Wasley. It is a tough side to break into.

I don't think Ricky Olarenshaw was a dud. Just unlucky with injuries. He was sensational in 1993.

 

[The Hobo]

No Room for a Port Side?

the current team, minus tredders, the cornes boys, wangas, wakes and a few others should be about right

 

[footyfreak]

First player listed of the first team was R Maynard. Lost all credability straight off the bat so i didn't bother reading any further.

Obviously not your work, so don't take this as personal, but that side is just stupid.

Imagine naming a 5'11 midfielder at full-back, and your ruckman is a bloke whose fate was decided by being to short to play a key position at 6'1.

Seems a hodge-podge of "who's played less than 10 games for this club" without any other considerations given. Some of those guys would have played 50-100 games at other clubs had they not spent 3-4 years on North's list in the late 90s.

CARLTON
B Murray Vance Mick Martyn David Kernahan

F Stephen Oliver Rohan Welsh Simon Minton Connell
R Barnaby French Adam White Damien Lock

You missed Mark Athorn. Worst player ever! Can't believe we played this dud on one M. Long, in the 93 GF

Bit harsh on Steven Oliver, only played a handfull of games. Didn't like sitting on the bench or city life. Got homesick and went back to kicking 20 goals a game in Castlemaine. Would have been a dead set gun, had he had the hunger to play in the big league. Shame really. Wasted talent.

rocket was indeed an absolute rock down back. could at least put adam saliba in the back pocket instead.... or ian downsborough (coulda been his 3rd gurnsey)... or brodie atkinson... or david gallagher... or matthew powell... well u get the idea

there are also a $hiteload of norwood players in that list!!
