Swan. Doesn't give a stuff, drinks beers ^max, sloppy mid-section and kills it every week.
Not a lippy player from what I've seen also. Just gets it done

I actually like Nathan Jones. He's not terribly skillful but he gives everything he's got. It takes a lot of mental fortitude to keep doing that game after game in such a crap side.
Great call, I have a lot of respect for him. If Melbourne had more players who gave as much of a stuff as he does, then they'd probably start beating teams other than us...

My favourite non-Essendon player is Goodes, though.

Buddy from day one, he does to us what Carey used to do.You just have to stand back and admire it. Kerr as well, from ketamine to playing one of the greatest ever finals v carlton 2 years back, absolutely un-believable that night. Proved he could do it without cuzz/judd.

Pav for a long time, but he's probably just dropped off a little these days.
Was then Goddard, but now Cotchin. Just love the way he moves.

Fyfe by far.

Picked him up in DT before his debut cause I needed a playing emergency and loved him ever since. Looked like he could get blown over on a windy day but his contested marking was there from day 1.

I probably have about 2-3 players from every side I enjoy to watch. I'd say ablett and bartell off the top of my head though. I'm also a massive fan of watching Geelong play. When they are on there is none better
