Yes, Peter Chisnall was on my list. John Cassin probably worth consideration. I remember Allan Carr and that incident in the VFA.

An update- I know we have ruckmen already, but what about Mick's dad, Bryan "Skinny" Martyn? Didn't see him play but my dad said he was tough as. He was still doing some physical work around the Club in the early 2000s when he had a terminal illness! I have an * past player acquaintance who had his lip and teeth rearranged by Skinny under the 'lights' during the end of season competition.Yes, Peter Chisnall was on my list.

Glenn Hawker can attest to this. He made the very silly mistake of shaping up to Arnie about 100m off the ball in the '83 Prelim Final and moments later was laying flat on his back. Needless to say, he required the assistance of the training staff in order to get off the ground.Arnie liked a stoush and dished it out.

I normally wouldn't condone off the ball violence, but it was a f***ing ripper of a punch.
And Arnie wasn't even the toughest/maddest in his family - his brother Robbie was an absolute nutter.
