Who are the quiet achievers at your club?

Ross Lyon

I know everyone on BF goes on about Cyril, but for a 2nd year player he'd have to be leading our B&F.

 

[Invigoration]

Dale Thomas just goes about his job.

 

[MuzzHawk]

Brent Guerra has been good when on the park.

Fair call...despite my constant and relentless efforts to portray him as a hack he continues to improve!!
Thank God you still have Luke Hodge...

 

[tugga]

Luke McGuane and Kel Moore do a great job for us down back when they could be forgiven for leaking goals given at how the rest of the side is going.

 

[Duskfire]

For the Cats, definetly Enright. No one ever mentions him at all, yet he is one of the most consistent players at Geelong and a vital part of the team, more vital then probably anyone truly knows. He got AA last year and will probably get it again this year if he keeps going, yet still remains somewhat a quiet achiever.

Baker from the Saints is another quiet achiever. Does his job, does it well, and yet you dont hear a peep from him.

 

[Willo #6]

Rick Ladson

 

[Signd Sealed Saint]

Blake the standout quiet achiever, the value of Bakes goes on unmentioned. Also Luke Ball gets the ball in and under, tackles like a bitch yet doesn't get the credit he deserves especially after going through OP. Sam Gilbert has been playing like a star this year, the media hasn't picked up on it but i reckon they will soon enough.

 

[Deefolt]

Ummmm...

LOL ROFL

From melbourne would prob say and you are right OP, James Frawley and or Stefan Martin

 

[Leapingleobarry]

Teddy Ritchards from the swans. Am watching the saints tonight, and have been impressed with Sam GIlbert all year. He doesn't seem to get the accolades he deserves.

 

[bzparkes]

Mark LeCras.

 

[Chasing the Dream]

We are Collingwood. We don't do 'quiet acheivers'.

Unfortunate timing with your post.

Plenty were quiet tonight

From Brisbane Joel Patful and Josh Drummond

 

[NTRabbit]

The greatest quiet achiever of them all, Tyson Edwards.

Two flags, 296 games, 185 goals, the 4th corner of our midfield quartet with Ricciuto, McLeod and Goodwin, missed only 3 games since 1999 - and he's never won so much as one B&F or AA guernsey.

Watson is the usual suspect but is starting to get more recognition now.
Winderlich has been key though this year and not acknowledged currently, although I think its about to change.

having said that, they didn't really achieve much so i think the point still stands

I agree with Patful, very good defender but I think everyone acknowledges how good Drummond is when he's fit, the only thing thats stopping from getting the credit is he hasn't put together a full season yet.

 

[Vegas.]

As the OP said, definitely Boris.

 

[Cheeseman]

Grant Birchall, he's absolutely crucial to our gameplan, extremely reliable, but rarely talked about.

 

[Macca19]

Definitely Troy Chaplin. Has only had 4 goals kicked on him all year. Barely been talked about in the media.

 

[gaelictiogar]

We don't have any !!!!

 

[Nater]

Chaplin, Boak and Gray i'd have to say.

 

[Sprout]

Let’s revisit this old chestnut.

Interesting to see some of the quiet achievers nominated ten years ago went on to become some of the biggest names in the game - Hurn, Enright, Birchall, Gray etc.

Currently at Melbourne it would be Christian Salem.

 

[juss]

Dave "Gastro" Astbury

 

[turtles]

Bruce Doull was pretty quiet
