Bearded Players

[GoYouBlues]

You don't seem to see too many players with beards nowadays. I can't picture any current players in my mind. Can you? There's probably someone obvious.

Which players do you know have played with a beard at some stage of their career?

Here's a couple to start things off:

G Train

Bruce Doull

Do you count three day growths? No.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Rooke at Geelong is carrying face fur isn't he?

 

[Stevie_Crow]

There was a good pic of O'Bree put up a couple of days ago. Looked like a bum.

 

[funkyfetlock]

Nick Malxeski?

Ok not a great beard but slightly more than a 3-day growth... I think.

 

[Waverley73]

I don't know if he ever played like this but Joel Corey had a wicked looking beard going on at the start of last years:

I even think thats what he looked like for the official team photo.

When I think bearded players I think John Gastev.... or Steinfort/O'Bree from a couple of years back, 02 I believe.

 

[The King of Leon]

Carl Steinfort had a ripper beard in 2002. Joel Corey in his 06 or 07 player photo has the Ned Kelly beard down pat.

How long ago did Rooke have a beard like that? That's a beauty!

Fish has pretty much always had a beard.

 

[TassieSaint]

How long ago did Rooke have a beard like that? That's a beauty!

Early this year I think. Must have grown it pre-season

 

[South of the Yarra]

Geoff Blethyn, Garry Baker, McAllister, Robert Klomp, Chris Hansen

 

[Benno_900]

Jimmy Bartel ...

 

[illnino]

No idea but Beno_900, your signature is the most woeful one I have seen in years....In ya dreams mate! Hale = Hack!

 

[Jafa]

Cousins.

 

[Rilian]

Max Rooke always comes back from preseason with a beauty, although not a beard as such my favourite is the one in my avatar as his official club photo for 2007, obviously a bit too small for most to see, but it's a classic 70's look.

And they keep biting.

I will keep baiting ... Hale has kicked more goals against Geelong in one game than Franklin has kicked against them in his whole career.

Bloke playing for Manly in the NRL has an absolute beauty.
