Three I liked from down the road: Roger James, Shaun Burgoyne and Josh Francou. Loved the way they played.

Corey Enright and Garry Hocking from the Cats

Dean Kemp and Peter Matera

Left field... Stephen Tingay

Allen Jakovich!
Yeah, would've liked to have both the James brothers playing together (probably biased because of the Norwood connection)
 
Right now for me it is.

Brisbane - Rockliff
Collingwood - Treloar
Carlton - Pass.
Essendon - Daniher
Freo - Fyfe
Giants - While
Hawthorn - surprisingly none.
Melbourne - Hogan
North Melbourne - Preuss
Port - Ollie Wines
Richmond - Dusty
Sydney - Buddy
WCE - NicNat
Bulldogs - Bont.

Always thought Matthew Lloyd would've been perfect for us in the early 2000s when we couldn't find a goalkicking forward to save ourselves.

A couple of other less obvious ones:

-Paul Chapman
-Ryan O'Keefe
-Dean Cox

From today's crop, without hesitation it'd be Bontempelli. If you'd take anyone before him you're crazy.
Yeah Lloyd is a call - annoying good and good enough bloke that you'd think, yeah I'd happily cheer for him.

Tony Hall

+ 1, but before the knee preferably.

Saw him kick 5 from CHF for the Bays in the '86 GF. A 1.8m CHF!

Dan Menzel reminds me of him. I'd take him.

Was talking about Tony Hall today in the office - one of the guys worked with him at BUPA - he's a senior exec at GMHBA in Geelong, surfs a few times a week, doesn't talk footy at all. Apparently a tremendous bloke.
 
Tex maybe, but I suspect there's enough baggage from his younger years that a solid majority think he's a bit of a tool (not an opinion I share btw) - and .

Know quite a few people here in Melbourne who do not like him at all

- one of them even texted me at the start of the year saying how glad she was that Tex wasn't captain anymore (after seeing Talia in the Captain's Day photo) - She was unimpressed when I corrected her
 
Adam Treloar instead of Milera
Bontempelli instead of Douglas
Josh Kelly instead of Mackay
Jack Hombsch (instead of Hartigan)

Brown ~ Talia ~ Lever
Laird ~ Hombsch ~ Smith
Josh Kelly ~ Sloane ~ Treloar
Jacobs ~ Bontempelli ~ M.Crouch
Lynch ~ Walker ~ Cameron
Betts ~ Jenkins ~ McGovern
B.Crouch ~ Atkins ~ Hampton
Jake Kelly

Yeah, it's weird. I think the way he has handled himself since becoming captain has been exemplary. A few dumb tweets, but other than that excellent, and the way he plays is surely what you'd want - defiantly not a thug

Dan Menzel is certainly one I think all supporters like to see play well. And just from chatting with a few non-Crows friends, there's a bit of that feeling for Otten as well.
 
Right at this moment in this season

Adelaide Betts, Sloane
Port Wines
Geelong Naaaaah, on character Menzel
Gold Coast Jack Martin, Tom Lynch
GWS Shiel, Coniglio
Bulldogs Bont
Richmond naaaaah
Essendon Merret
Carlton naaaaaah
Freo Fyfe
West Coast McGovern or Kennedy
Collingwood Pendles
North naaaaaah
St. Kilda Steven
Syndey Kennedy, Heeney
Hawthorn Nope
Brisbane Havent seen enough of hum but Hipwood looks the goods
 
Menzel the only one from Geelong.

Going back... Platten. Kernahan. Paul Kelly - Swans.

Controversial... Chad Cornes. Would have loved to see him run around in a Crows jumper with his talent and passion.
 
Brisbane - Hipwood
Collingwood - Treloar & Pendels
Carlton - Cripps & Weitering
Essendon - McGrath & Heppell
Freo - Fyfe
Giants - Pretty much their whole squad
Gold Coast - Lynch
Hawthorn - Burton & Rioli
Melbourne - Viney, Petracca & Oliver
North Melbourne - Mason Wood
Port - Robbie Gray
Richmond - Dusty
Sydney - Heeney & Mills
WCE - Nic Nat
Bulldogs - The Bont (Could be GoAT)
Saints - Jack Steven
Geelong - Selwood

If I could pick one player in the league it would be The Bont hands down.

Barging in but can I please flip it and say Trent Hentschel for 2006, Jason Porplyzia for 2009 (my all time favourite Crow the Porpoise,) Eddie Betts for 2014-15 and Scott Welsh early Noughties?

Currently, Rory Atkins, Daniel Talia, Jake Lever, Brodie Smith and Rory Sloane.


Strange how the Crows have done really well from the Calder Cannons currently but other sides they recruited from no.
Not so much Oakleigh Chargers.
 
I'll put down St Kilda's Jack Stevens.
Good player and does a good Macca lookalike.
