I agree, Fletch isn't all that bad, I'd go for Freeborn as the Blues biggest hack.

The thing is with the Blues, we don't really have many players without talent... Freeborn is one, but other under-performing players like Fevola and Prenda have talent, but aren't living up to it...

I could count the good games he has played for us on one hand.

Mantis told me to tell you that you are full of **** windyhill. The Itallian Stallion is an absolute club legend! Wouldn't have won the 2000 GF without him!

Salmon on the other hand.......

Insert Vardy also.

Yeah, surprised that Vardy didn't get a mention in Ghost's inital list. Sziller, Hudson and to a lesser extent, King have had played quality senior football. Vardy is just way out of his depth.

As for other Richmond dud candidates, Andrew Krakouer and Adam Houlihan would have to be up there.

David Bourke gets my vote too. He hasn't played a game for us, but i cannot remember someone who has played a game for us and was a hack. Can anyone help me out here?

Hasn't been too bad this year, but there's some doozies from the 90s... Calthorpe, Reynolds, Barnett, John, Gallagher, Groom, D & A Dwyer

That is a bit harsh on Paul Hudson. The reason why Huddo didn't play well enough was because he wasn't given much game time in the two matches he played.

Michael Osbourne and Ben Dixon

Here's two from the Swannies.

- Ricky O'Loughlin

- Chris Obst

If I had to pick one it would be Chris Obst. The few games I have seen him play were mistake ridden. You can't make that many mistakes a game being a defender.

I'll put in a suggestion for Hawthorn even though I'm not a Hawks fan:

David Loats. Only had about five senior games and has already stamped himself as the the worst ruckman in the league. All he can do is get himself out of position, fall over, and play for a free kick.

Some people obviously like rewriting history...

Loats has played 1 senior game (vs Essendon) in which he was one of the better players on the paddock... He actually seems to have some potential as a ruckman, but is constantly letdown by his body and spends most of his time on the injured list...

Rayden Tallis has to be the biggest hack at Hawthorn, although Tim Clarke will quickly go from a whisper to a roar in this category if he doesn't make some inroads in early 2003!

Suzi... I wouldn't call Dixon the biggest hack at Hawthorn by any means, although he has genuine claims to the most overrated mantle. As for putting Osbourne forward as a hack, sheesh. He isn't the best footballer going around, but he is solid and honest.
