The Perfect Crow

[whattagun07]

I was thinking about all the skills and attributes on show in a game of
Aussie rules, and started thinking about what the ultimate Adelaide Crow player would be like, taking just one skill or attribute from any player since 1997.

My perfect Crow would be something like this...

darren jarman's smarts
mark ricciuto's leadership
ben rutten's strength
shaun rehn's tap work
andrew mcleod's long field kicking
jason porplyzia's set shot
tony modra's lead marking
kurt tippett's contested mark
brett burton's leap
chris knights' outside 50m shot
nathan bassett's passion
ben hart's ability to puch above his weight division
scott thompson's biceps
shane ellen's sense of occasion
trent hentschell's ability to defy the odds
ian perrie's workhorse...ness?
bernie vince's boyish good looks
robert shirley's good guy persona
nigel smart's "don't take no crap from no footy show panel"
patrick dangerfield's "ground-to-feet-ability"
tyson edwards' underratedness
david gallagher's.........(only kidding)
simon goodwin's left handed fist pump goal celebration
andrew crowell's microphone skills
