T.CLOKE- great year plays CHF superbly with a copeland to show has huge potential and will win games off his own boot in years to come. no need to worry about the wonky kicking he is still young and will become a superstar

TARRANT- very quick on a lead and work rate very high covers a lot of ground nice mark some memorable grabs winning goal after the siren a match no magpie supporter will forget.

you cant have blokes in there after one good year (cloke)

Thomas should definately not be in there

Wakelin stiff, but many other good backs

Pebbles a definite, cloke out

Fraser = 2nd ruck

INTER: BURNS LICURIA T. CLOKE THOMAS



Pert might have been the best fullback who played at Collingwood in this time, but he wasn't Collingwood's best fullback. Presti for sure.

Morwood retired in 1993, his best was in the 80's. Therefore I give his position to B. Johnson.

Other than that, I can't see a lot wrong with it, Thomas' inclusion is a little questionable because he so new but I love Dale Thomas so he stays!!! :D:thumbsu:


Edit: Last moment I decide A. Rocca gets CHF just because of long service, Russell off the bench and T. Cloke on.

Buckley captain, T. Shaw vice, Clement, Brown and Millane deputy vice captains.

Yeah Josh Fraser probably needs squeezing in... Hard work. :(
 
my reasons for not having A.rocca was a bit harsh but I just dont like the player at all for his size he doesnt bust open enough games for my liking should win more games off his boot and doesnt work hard enough cloke is the next big thing at collingwood and when this would be done in 3 years he would still be there

I loved gary pert as a kid had his number on my back and loved to go to vic park and watch him play played against the best full forwards every week lockett dunstall salmon ablett etc yeah presti was a bit stiff.

thomas was the only one that I was iffy about probably would go for barwick of francis looking
thanks for the feedback people

G.Wright bit stiff, would put him in before pants on the wing. Only because unfortunately pants only played the one season post 1990.

Rocca in ahead of T.Cloke
Licca with 2 copeland trophies is a def in
 
Licca is in mate. Scott Burns would be the only replacement in my mind.

Mind you I'm only 20, so my memories of the 90s are dim.

But Licca stays mate!

Yeah but pants was brilliant in 90- AFL Players MVP, so I think that's enough to get in
Wright very stiff though- was a huge fan of him
 
saying that though that centreline gets me more excited than a grown man should get by thinking of other men

I get the same feeling, and a similar feeling about the FF line.

Dids, Sav and Daics all together in their prime.{drool}. That would put opposition coaches and backmen into therapy.:cool:
 
Christian unlucky, A. Rocca for Cloke and either of Francis or Wright for Thomas (just too early for the two younger blokes).

Mark Richardson was very good for us in a crap team and I'd have him as second ruck - he also had good games both down back and up forward. Pity his body gave out just as we started to come good in 2002.
 
The centreline is brilliant. Do not change it. I just count myself lucky that i got to see all those brilliant men play so many times.

To those that missed seeing Pants play (anyone born in 1992 onwards), you have missed out on seeing someone truly great.
