[dee-molishon]

Jeff Hilton, Darren Cuthbertson, Alaister Clarkson, Anthony Ingerson, Martin Pike, Paul Prymke, Rodney Grinter

Worthy of a bagging:

Alaister Nicholson, Stephen O'Dwyer, Simon Godfrey, Craig Nettlebeck

Rod Grinter = legend

Not sure about bagging Nicholson though, sure he wasn't the best but he was used as a no. 1 FB and to be honest he had at least one good season. Similar to Carrol, played the best he could but usually a mismatch.

Wait till SuperMerc gets hold of this thread.

For me, you can't go past Kowal or Smith.

I used to hate the trio Hopgood, Kowal and Chisholm.

Brad 'Cant take a contest mark' Miller

 

[TelkoTheGreat]

Yer Andrew Lampril was awesome, don't you remember Rd 1 1992 Vs Geelong when he kicked that big floater deep in the pocket and Jacko was celebrating in the goalsquare hahahaha!!!..

Some Others

Chris Sullivan, Michael Pickering, Haydn Robins, Darren Cuthbertson, Jeff Hilton .

Good old sponsors were Snowy Mountain ( 92 ) & Pioneer Homes ( 93)

Drake were great too,

426.

Godfrey. I almost cried the night he played his 100th.

 

[melbournemartin]

Newton has turned into a bit of a cult figure but, unlike most of the other ones, he is actually good!

 

[CowboyFromHell]

Brent Heaver was one. "Balls" Grinter, Ricky Jackson, Jakovich, Jeff Hilton, Jeff Farmer... all cult heroes. Guys like Juice have such a long way to go to reach their standard.

 

[melbournemartin]

Mark of the Year in your first real year is a fair start. 29 will be on the back of the jumper by the start of next year.

I think Shaun Smith left some magic in that jumper for Juice, bloody oath did it launch him.

 

[Flashhh]

same here... lets hope he keeps the twenty nine though. doesnt do a jeff farmer and change to number eight... then when everyone finally gets round to taking off the 33 and putting on number 8 he changes back again!

although he cannot play and probably shouldnt be in the side Nathan Carrol is a cult hero if i ever saw one. That haircut and the handlebar mustache.

 

[dee-molishon]

some great names here guys that i have totally forgotten about keep em coming:

Michael Pickering (i forgot he even played for us), Brent Heaver.............i remember another guy cant think first name but he had hair like elvis surname was bryce....................couple of others i did like for us were peter rohde, earl "the duke" spalding, kevin dyson and craig turley!!!!!

 

[dee-molishon]

another few i remember ross funke he was in the grand final sprint one year what a high light!!! stephen powell (loved him)

As the person who sported a #54 Brent Heaver jumper the day after his debut I'm happy to be recognised. I'd have to add Cuthbertson, Hilton, Gilbert, Shanahan, Kowal and the Philth. Was also shattered when Kevin Dyson left.

How about Wayne Lamb? Didn't he get 10 weeks in the U19's for threatening to belt an umpire or something? I think he made his debut in the game we drew against Sydney at the MCG in the early 90's.

To be honest I never really got into the 426 hype.

 

[chipper]

I reckon as the years go by the Brown Dog would have to develop into a past cult figure type status. With the evolution of the hair styles and the devil may care attitude he ticks the right boxes!

Cult hero in a complimentary way.

 

[chipper]

Shit I miss him already. Not fair that he's not pulling on the red and blue anymore. Sob.

 

[CowboyFromHell]

Forgot to mention "Chopper" Lovell as well. He was a gun... then we traded him to the Eagles for Craig Turley. Yep, that worked.

Dammit Cowboy that avatar disturbs me every time I see it. Its like a car crash, tragic yet I can't look away.

Its a classic though

 

[melbournemartin]

I like the edited version of it featuring the scrolling dance pad moves up the side to resemble one of those japanese dance games

If only we could put a couple of inches on Carroll and maybe a few kicking and spoiling lessons. He'd be a definite FB prospect then and we could enjoy the handlebar mustache for years to come.

I got a cult hero for ya...
Meeson when he heads to Melbourne.
