Great call!throw in Robert Hyde too
there's a high lite reel, great hands, marked nearly every thing in his areaGreat call!
Billy Picken too in that era...
Contested marking was so much more of a feature then - and Billy was absolutely top shelf.there's a high lite reel, great hands, marked nearly every thing in his area
GREG PHILLIPSEven though it almost bankrupted the club, the 'New Magpies' era of the early/mid 80's was an exciting time.
Classy players such as Mike Richardson, Geoff Raines, Bruce Abernethy, that one year from Phillip Walsh, Daics and Banksy in their prime.
Hard nuts like Chocco Williams, Michael Taylor, David Cloke, Tony Shaw.
A Marking MachineGREG PHILLIPS
i was broken when i heard he was leaving after 84.A Marking Machine
Certainly belongs in both the 'classy player' and 'hard nut' lists. Thanks for picking up my omission!GREG PHILLIPS
Sat next to him at the footy one day, he was checking us out as we played Port the following week.i was broken when i heard he was leaving after 84.
What? White's been fine, Lynch was at the end of his career and for a while had been regularly dropped by West Coast before we got him. Dawes was just s**t.Leigh Brown - wasn't the best footballer ever but the role he filled was massive. Since 2011 when he retired, our efforts at recruiting that 3rd tall/2nd ruck type has been abysmal. Chris Dawes, Quinten Lynch and Jesse White has basically all had their careers ruined by the attempt. Brown was much more valuable to the team that his stats read.
