Key position allrounders from the past

[Turnover]

Oh yes it did indeed.

The sheer joyous smile when he kicked that goal...so good.

I can picture it now sitting up high in the that old stand behind the goals city end ...Billlllllyyyy yes!!!! Lol

Weston was a good move aswell, according to Lou especially.

 

[Turnover]

An absolute gem of a player.

Silky smooth, courageous and tough as all ####.

Yep, him and bassato. Bradley and sticks. Gee Carlton use to nail their recruitment. What happened.

 

[Knox Harrington]

Scott Lucas
Won a b and f at centre half back. Kicked 471 goals

 

[Ishikawa]

Chad Cornes or Adam Goodes come to mind for me of the players I grew up watching.

Is that a rhetorical question?

 

[JUSTWORK]

Chad Cornes was more than handy in his day, All Australian at CHB and Wing and very capable of pushing forward with 179 Goals

The ####ers had stars on every line ..81’ until 93’ when we ended it..sort of.

Can remember many many games in 80, 81, 82 at VFL park where they would always get us. Princes park no hope. And if I go into my bomber book I’m sure the ####s beat us Windy Hill many times too.

A great club back then.

Now, not so much.

God I loved that man. On the left boot...every single kick lol

Essendon weren't bad in that period on the back of SA/WA recruits. Probably the best two at it.

Yes...Richards was on to it that day with his commentary.

“ This is Sheedy’s Premiership”

I’ve got a warm fuzzy feeling just thinking about it.

In fact, I think I’m going to cry lol

We were lucky...Westy and Duckworth, Budgie who missed out...the footy gods were kind to us.

Oh and of course the great Leon Baker.

Sheedy and Donahue hounded him to come to Windy Hill...thank Christ

 

[Bulldog1954]

Chris Grant was one vote off the brownlow in 1996 playing CHB and then got the most votes in the brownlow in 1997 playing CHF.

 

[Chaisa]

Henderson and Reid two pretty decent recent ones. There was a phase when Harry Taylor was a gun when swung temporarily up forward too.

Glendenning arguably the best IMO.

You forgetting Stephen Copping?

Then Sheeds invented Indigenous footballers.......

Yeah gotta love the rivalry. Fitzpatrick on the mark when Neale Daniher was dominating @ pp 81, funny stuff. Blues will come back, as will the bombers, in the meantime we are both average.

 

[Turnover]

Back to the topic. Chad Cornes was a decent switchman.

 

[Topkent]

Has anyone mentioned Steven Silvagni?

 

[masai]

Ross Glendenning.

 

[Chaisa]

Has anyone mentioned Steven Silvagni?

Was he not in the OP?

Though SOS is a weird one. Not that he wasn't a very capable forward, but he was mostly an emergency option as a forward, he was 90% a fullback. Your Grants, Glendinnings, Cornes, etc. played lots of footy at both ends of the grounds.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

The criminally underrated Scott Lucas. Kicked 60 goals as second fiddle to Lloyd in 2000. Went to CHB and won the B&F. Went back to the forward line. Played FF when Lloyd went down for a year, winning the B&F again and finishing second in the Coleman.

 

[LawrenceJameson]

Alex Jesaulenko signature move after half time if blues were getting beaten, SOS to full forward.

[saintkildaman]

Even though he copped a lot of criticism Justin Koschitzke won the rising star playing CHB, rucked and played second fiddle to Riewoldt up front with a career best of 48 goals in 2009.

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

Ben Graham had his moments as a swinging KPP.

Astounded it took until the second page.

First player I thought of.

 

[Air Conveyance]

Barry Stoneham was 1992 AA at CHB but played more CHF in other years. Great player till his leg injury.
