[worbod]

Graeme Jenkin for being underneath Alex Jesaulenko

 

[worbod]

Jeff Fehring for that massive torpedo in 1981.

Matthew Scarlett will be remembered as one of our greatest full backs, however his most famous moment happened in the centre circle.

Ray Windsor, who gave the Bears their first points against the Eagles at Carrara in 1992 with a goal to draw the game.

There was a Geelong local named Nick Walsh. He played only a handful of games with Essendon. His only moment of glory came was when he kicked eight goals in a Panasonic Cup semi final. He ended up back in the Geelong local league not long after.

SSSSSAMPIIIIIIII

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Relton Roberts for eating the hamburger

 

[The Dice Man]

Jaiden Stephenson has time on his side, but a lot of ground to make up to not be remembered for 3 trips to the local TAB.

 

[HotSausage69]

For me, Dale Thomas made his name with his Anzac day game in 2006

 

[Lyttelton Ranger]

Micky Conlan's match winning goal against Essendon in the 1986 elimination final. It rained all day and Fitzroy ended up winning by a point.
Conlan looked dejected after he kicked the goal, probably because he did nothing all day up until that moment.

 

[Dazb86]

Shane Biggs

Never forget

 

[Gydafud]

Phil Manassa became well known to me due to a play by Mick McGuane. I learned of his name long before I saw his play.

 

[Black Panther]

Geoff Hayward

 

[demondavey]

Brent Staker

 

[GreyCrow]

This guy did so much more and really doesnt deserve to be here but I think he fits the criteria

John Gastev

For missing

 

[roz1812]

Brent Staker only well known due to the Hall punch.

 

[roz1812]

There is pretty much three guys who have made a name for themselves from one game against us. Nick Davis with his BS in 05, Stuart Dew in the 08 grand final and bloody Ashley McGrath goal on the siren in 2013 easily the 3 worst days as a Geelong supporter.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Got another one from GFs
Barry Breen
Something about winning your side a GF that does this for you.

If we're going back to the 60s Neil "Froggy" Crompton for the Demons, quickly erased Collingwood's Ray Gabelich (Gabbo's Run) from minutes earlier.

 

[captain cotch 9]

Tex will always be known for his power ranger stance

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Malcolm Blight's goal at Princes Park
Austin Wonamaerri's game vs Freo

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Only remembered for missing 2 match winning goals because it happened so rarely.....Johnno won dozens of games off his own boot with late last quarter goals.

John Georgiades is a better nomination - 8 goals on debut and disappeared soon after.

Andrew? Metropolis from the Eagles, 8 goals with his first 8 kicks on debut

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Well I remember him for the dog act he commited long after he retired

Nah the torp for goal from the centre square at Waverley in the 88 Prelim tops that

 

[kickazz]

Neil Sachse. :-(

 

[Rusty Brookes]

Geoff Hayward

No way. Sure he was all over the shop in the game against Hawthorn (Rostoff's coaching was brilliant that day) and it was terrific to sing the song after the game ("Bobbing up and down like this") but Hayward was brilliant in the Grand Final in front of 130,000 fans.

 

[kickazz]

Maybe, but surely most people remember him for rooting his mum and legless sister
