brad miller for darley. on richmonds rookie list previously. gun. 30 posie from full forward ina pinch hitting role. country lad at heart or would else have made it
 
Miller a very very good player, only 22 or 23?, plays footy the old fashioned way, with a bit of grunt.
i would think he's one of the best under the age of 24 running around in vic country.

Robbie Walker until his forced retirement. The best ever country footballer in Australia bar none! Absolute champion on and more importantly off the field.

I was lucky enough to have played on Robbie Walker and he is easily the best player i have seen. Playing on the ball or centre half forward it didn't matter he could win games off his own boot. He played in a very successful era for The Wangaratta Rovers winnig B&F's, League Medals and Premieships simply outstanding. I was fortunate enough to be the bloke that finished playing on Robbie in his last game and i'll always feel honoured to have played on the best in the bush.

Where is Jamie Spida Shaw these days? i haven't heard anything about him since his days at Corowa when he very rarely left the goal square but still kicked a heap of goals.
 
Gordon 'Sting' Sumner would have to be up there, i believe the lowest he finished in a club best and fairest was 4th, he was picked in two best ever teams, captain of bendigo interleague, R/U league B&F and best first year player at Collingwood

I believe it was jardine that lost the plot, not degraaf he went back home becaue his wife was homesick and i also believe an ex president took the money

i am pretty sure there were some dodgy circumstances surrounding Degraffs departure. But you are right it was Jardine who went off. Was a turbulent time at Kerang there for a while

Yes after Jardine was sacked i beleive he still came to train after signing with Quamby, and tried to beat up the kerang playerss and steal footballs and pushbikes

Yep, a chip off the old block.
 
wat do ppl think about if there was an under 25 comp that was like the TAC cup. i think it would be very good because it give players that start playing good footy when they are older than 18 a chance to get look at by afl an i think it would be come a very strong comp

it would just take more players away from country clubs.
 
Sean Charles, when he shows up, is just a dominant footballer. He was/is playing at Lalbert, a struggling team, and used to just dominate. I know the Central Murray is not a major league but Charles played AFL and was obviously rated or St Kilda and Carlton would not have persisted with him. He was also very hard. Every game he would take at least one opposition player out with his tackling.

Another guy I have heard mentioned from back in the day is Richie Carmes from Murrayville. He was meant to be one of the best ever.
