[LeverPuller]

I could name a whole team we've had so many shockers over the last 16 years.

Troy Longmuir
Cain Ackland
Clem Smith
Ricky Mott
Stephen Kenna
Aaron Joseph
Trent Sporn
Blaine Johnson
Kane Lucas
Josh Bootsma
Matthew Watson
Callum Chambers
Mark Whiley
Marcus Davies
etc etc etc...

Over 50 games would have to be
Bret Thronton
Simon Wiggins
Jordan Russell
Paul Bower
Shaun Hampson (although he kicked a massive goal with his choice of missus lol)

Its been a looong 15 years LOL

None of them have shit on Tom Gillies at Melbourne

 

[Flandersss]

Cam Shenton.

Just wasn't afl standard.

 

[shaqsuns]

Mark Blake and do I really need to give a reason why

2007: Pick 20 Tony Notte
2009: Pick 22 Gerrick Weedon, pick 5 2010 PSD Ryan Neates
2011: Pick 28 Fraser McInnes

We used to have a good reputation for drafting. Some of our selections in the late 2000s/early 2010s really have you scratching your head. These aren't trash picks either. Notte was the sort of guy you take in the 5th round or rookie list and we used pick 20.

Was tagged "the next Matthew Scarlett" early in his Geelong days. Obviously never lived up to that billing.

Picking Weedon and Murray Newman (Pick #23, 2011 National Draft) as high as you did showed the Eagles' obsession with / desperation to find a home grown small forward. Going for guys like Neates and Ashton Hams in the Rookie Draft around the same time was further proof.

Im yet to see a player worse than Jarrod Oakley-Nichols

You call yourself a Blues fan and you've left out Robbie Warnock!
Shame on you!

Legend has it that he was picked sight unseen by Greg Miller.

He never saw him play in the flesh or met him. Only watched him on tape.

Hard to believe...but

 

[Wallaby]

I really hate to upset a lot of older Richmond fans, when they are enjoying this season so far, but.................................

We once had a guy called Michael Laffey. Played 26 games, too.

 

[Mr Mister]

Randall Bone - end thread

The thread title was worst player, not worst name.

I wonder if we considered chasing Betts as a FA in 2013.

 

[eth-dog]

Shocking nomination.

How has Simon White not been nominated? Genuinely the worst player I've seen.

Still on a list . Lachlan Keefe is another up there.

 

[SBYM]

I'd hope that everyone who has posted a name excels in their chosen field...

 

[Jello_B]

Has Toby Thurstans been mentioned?

 

[Chuckie357]

Cam Shenton.

Just wasn't afl standard.

Played out of position that's why! Is a natural forward. Dominated a prelim as a 17 year old I think, won it off his own boot for Norwood

 

[Scary_Foot_9]

Has Toby Thurstans been mentioned?

I recall him being alright in the 04 GF.

 

[Jello_B]

I recall him being alright in the 04 GF.

I don't know who he surrendered himself to the night before that game, but I doubt it was god.

 

[ioppolo]

A better one would be 'worst Premiership player you've seen?'

 

[bradrowe#32]

Nah, he was good a few years when he did his knee.

 

[adelaidecrows]

Why has Ian Downsborough never been mentioned?

 

[adelaidecrows]

Josh Wooden is another.

 

[Louis Slungpue]

chris mayne, just straight up stinks

 

[True Blue Saint]

Aaron Keating wins that hands down.

The worst player I've ever seen was Tim Elliott. Played more than 50 games too I'm quite sure throughout the mid to late 90s.

One of those players who would tear up the VFL once a year and earn a spot in the senior side for 3 months after as a result.
