Eth. Contributes ****loads behind the scenes. Great leader and a genuinely nice bloke to have around the league

Was hesitant to nominate him due to him being my Captain and all, but I seriously don't think there is a more respected poster in the league and has done a superb job turning the Demons around.

boncer34 I quickly threw the past inductees into your OP.

From my viewpoint, I would nominate
eth
clarkeM
larrikin

apologies to a raft of other great contributors including fellow Roys Broken and Fat Pizza, who I feel are thereabouts but not quite there. IMS is borderline nowadays too (crazy, not eligible)

Pretty good list. .. Larrikin is pretty spesh Sim wise. ..

From a Sim point of view, I'd nominate Winty. .. Lad has kicked more goals then IMS has had floggish moments. .. All time leading goal kicker in the SFA. .. Alf Andrews (S13). .. 6 times, in a row, Gumbies leading goal kicker (S9 to S14). ..

Not sure if that is enough of a contribution though, depends on the criteria. ..

(Kany version: "I'm going to let you finish Mobbs but Winty is the best goal kicker of all time. .. of all time")

A former admin of the league who seemed to be integral to its growth (old-timers can correct me if I'm overrating him in retrospect) with 160 games and over 2000 disposals to boot.
I'll leave it to someone else to recognise that he wasn't a particularly good poster, nor was he a particularly good admin because there's a strong degree of irony if I point it out.

Eth. Arguably the most highly regarded poster in the league, and has turned the club around immensely. He has also done a good job with the wiki.

In his defense he did have to deal with me.

Borderline nowadays?? What does this mean exactly?? I was good enough at one stage but have dropped away?? I'm confused... :confused:

I nominate crazy_big_al
  • 3 time Swamprats Best and Fairest
  • Premiership Ruckman
  • All SFA player
  • Ranked 58th All time Games
  • Ranked 28th All time Goals
  • Ranked 54th All time Disposals
  • Ranked 3rd in All Time Hitouts and is #1 of Current Players
  • Is one of only two current players to have played in every Swamprat season

I too nominate crazy_big_al based on the above stats, and that he has been a fundamental programmer for Apple...

I'd like to think my love for Eth and the Demons is well known, but IMO, he would be way down the pecking order for nominations. Sure, he's an amazing poster, an amazing contributor to this league, and a likeable guy, but he hasn't even played 100 games. And tbh, the Demons had strong posters before he became captain. HoF noms should be given to legends of this league, posters who have been around for yonks (like everyone in there atm). As much as I'm supposed to dislike him being a Collingwood supporter (check out the Winty Award on our team board), I'd nominate winty.

Oh, and maybe ClarkeM the flog.

I couldn't agree more.

Eth is a star and is a certain future hall of famer, but there are many ahead in the pecking order.

Broken has been afk most of his career, that's the only thing standing between him and a nom from me.
How active are these now:

ALREADY INDUCTED :
ljp86
EaglesKIckAss
Boncer34
Fred
Mobbenfuhrer
Deestroy
rfcta
dougthelegend

Broken's last two seasons alone would make up for any quiet periods.
