Most dishonest players in the comp? Your top 10

[Atomboy]

No love for Luke Shuey ?.

Mother flipper looks like he is playing a match on the grassy knoll every week.

 

[Numero Uno]

Shuey is being named on reputation from 3-4 years ago.. virtually none these days

walters is the biggest diver/ throws head back in the league

Drivel

 

[Hoops]

Selwood should not be on that list. He doesn't tend to dive or flop or exagerate contact - no more than any other player. Dangerfield yes, Selwood no.

[Brunswick Trap King]

The worst I've seen is Rance but the Geelong awesome foursome of Selwood, Danger, Ablett and Hawkins gives Rance a run for his money.

Rance is a rare breed though. Not many defenders flop when initiating contact the way he could.

I also don't think Papley took a dive against Collingwood unless they show a side on view of no contact. It's a natural reaction to flail your arms around when pushed off balance in the air.

 

[north_lad]

Pretty sure Geelong would have you believe they've never given away a legitimate free in their existence

 

[My Name Is Nobody]

I wouldn't call Karate kick Toby 'dishonest' just because he wants to be Bruce Lee

 

[PetterdHoisted]

Woodcock from Port won the rising star for this category this week
One for the future surely.

Really? Dozens of players every week manage not to go flying like he did at a minor nudge. He felt contact and absolutely made the impact himself.

I wouldn't have said Miers (think Dangerfield is the top 3 worst in AFL, so if I was picking a Geelong player I'd say him) and think Shuey, Macrae and Ward are generally pretty good these days, other than that pretty spot on by OP.

Grimes goes down so easy. Dangerfield and Brown have their arms up at slightest contact. Papley milks a free. Greene does slimy stuff (and then he and his teammates can't understand when he gets a reputation because he's such a good bloke!!). Puopolo drives his head into arms as much as possible.

I'd say Tippa too. He plays for the free, even if they are deserved free kicks by the rule book I hate how it's his instinct/first though. Drops the ball in heavy traffic to earn a hold, draws the high tackle etc. Yes they're still frees but the manner in which he gets them is annoying.

Have you ever been double bounced on a trampoline or the first time you jumped of the high diving board.

When you are in the air and you sense your body is tipping forward your arms flail about trying to correct itself.

Try this for me? Jump in the air and have someone push you just as you're leaving the ground. Unless you're a gymnast you will be doing the same thing.

 

[Freoforever86]

most are already named.
Liam Ryan throws the head a bit & Darling loves a flop

 

[Asapartyhat]

Micheal Walters then a mile of daylight to the pack

was worst in the league for years. Along side Hams Selwoods etc.
Still loves the occasional

 

[Square Peg]

Charlie Cameron. I know every pundit thinks he's Mother Teresa but he loves a flop.

Tippa rarely gets them though which makes it frustrating has a supporter - we can’t even play for frees effectively

I know what u mean, like jumping out of a plane without ur parachute.

Good call, honest call

 

[Falcon27]

Jeremy Howe
Jordan DeGoey
Wayne Carey
Gary Lyon
Stephen Milne
Andrew Lovett
Damian Cupido
Heath Scotland
Shannon Grant
Nick Stevens

Why Jeremy Howe?

 

[Ricky Vaughn]

Why Jeremy Howe?

Broke his hand playing cricket and blamed his dog.
Him and Lyon are the 2 from that list whose dishonesty isn't a big deal.

 

[Juddernaut08]

Let's not make this about 'clubs', we all have them. In fact, it could be argued these guys are the best team-mates. They do whatever they can to win, but in no order, can you list the top 10 players that you've spotted doing a dodgy? Whether it be milk a free, karate kick someone to mark a ball, win an Oscar, duck like donald or flop like a fish.

Here are my top 10

Tom Papley
Gryan Miers
Paul Puopolo
Dylan Grimes
Ben Brown
Luke Shuey
Jack McCrae
Joel Selwood
Callan Ward
Toby Greene

Far out! Id say any player from Pies or Dons.

Lying Lyon?
