As some of you know, I take oodles of pics and now I am asking for a favour from you guys. I am in the process of making Footy cards of the CFC & Willy boys which I am uploading HERE as I get them done. What I would like is if anyone has GOOD quality, possibly high res photos of the current boys in action during a game or training in their respective guernseys. The pics have to be preferably shots of a player on his own without other players actually in contact with him so I can extract the player from the picture without interference. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Below is a sample....

I'm in the midst of editing the Willy vs Ants ones of the weekend, perhaps if you go through, and see one that you like, I'll email the full resolution?

I've also done Willy vs BH, editing takes too long.

The Collingwood official site has some nice old style action shots of most of the draftees in Collingwood jumpers.

Unfortunately I can't use the images from the CFC because they are copyrighted to Getty Images. I have spoken to CFC and it's not worth the risk, but thanks for the suggestion.
HOGGY= Thanks also for your offer, but I need reasonably closeup pics...if you have any like that I can use them.

No worries, I try my best.

Is that you right in the middle taking the photo of Lawry?

The amount of fingers M.Hogg has in the media pie is quite staggering.

I'm not quite sure what "Diamo" means. I presume it means diamond ring as in ..married? And yes, that was the missus.

He has become the media!

These photos would be good as part of the AFL Project on Wikipedia. Most images have the problem that they are licensed to Getty, so if anyone could add some photos to the Collingwood player pages (or otherwise) that'd be good.

Drop us a line on my talk page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:TheRealAntonius and I'll tell you how to upload them.
