[Shinboners]

Yep, the rubberman gets my vote too.

 

[CJH]

Pound for pound David Bourke must get an honorable mention!

This is a hallucination and these faces are in a dream. A computer generated environment; a fantasy island you can do anything and not have to face the consequences.

 

[Frodo]

Spider Burton

 

[BIG POPPA PUMP]

Spider Burton
Beau McDonald
Clinton King

 

[Darky]

David Bourke and Paul Symmons before he got the chop. Also happen to be two of the worst players!
Still, don't think either of them was as skinny as Jamie Elliott.

------------------
Other bands play, Manowar KILL !!!!!!!!!

 

[Grendel]

Murphy at the Doggies, only a kid and will fill out, but he looks like a model for the bloke that gets sand kicked in his face at the beach!

 

[Magpie-Fletch]

Damien Adkins from Collingwood also deserves a mention.

 

[Paul D]

Scott Bamford - former Fitzroy, Brisbane & Geelong wingman. Was also one of the quickest going around.

Speaking of quickest, (Not wanting to change the subject), the quickest I've seen would be Darren Kappler. I think he won the Bay Gift in South Australia before he came to Fitzroy. (For those outside SA, that's the equivalent of the Stawell Gift)

 

[Mr Ripper]

Grant Lawrie could take a bath in a thermometer.

 

[Bloodstained Angel]

yeah Darren Kappler was very pacy.

Played for the Swans late in his career, 1994-1995 and he was very exciting to watch.

Also had a a great, raking left foot kick, almost as good as Mark Bayes actually.

a joy to watch

cheers

 

[Doggiesrule1020]

The skinnyest player would have to be from a doggies supporter veiw would have to be Robert Murphy from a dogs point of veiw from another team id have to say david bourke.

 

[Olmy]

Don't forget Lindsay Gilbee.

 

[Mr Ripper]

A mate of yours, Olmy?

 

[McKenna for PM]

Travis Gaspar

 

[Denno]

David Bourke can hide behind a goalpost!

 

[coxon]

hmmm.. how about the indian rubber man, Michael Long ? or plastic man Dustin 'fletch' Fletcher?

 

[blackdiamond]

Danny Morton would probably have to be the skinniest player. Only weighing in at 64kgs he was a good 5kgs lighter than any other player in the AFL last season.

[amazonstud]

Scott Stevens from Sydney would have to go close 192cm and 76kgs. compared to Lappin at 181cm and 72kgs. Robert Murphy from the Doggies is a close second at 184cm and 71kgs.

One of the young rookie ruckmen in the draft was supposed to be able to hide behind a toothpick

 

[dees01]

It would have to be David Bourke. I can't think of anyone skinnier than that.

 

[hilly]

[JUBJUB]
