Duds you actually liked

[Dennis]

So many....

Jayson Daniels was the original Paul Kelly / Brett Kirk. 30 + touches a game, no skill but a lion heart

Rohan Welsh could have been anything if Sticks wasn't the only target everyone kicked to

Hogg - The original tagger with balls of steel

Ben Nelson - Brought down by his association with Brad "The Original Lawrence Angwin" Pierce, but could play

Brett Evans - Already mentioned earlier. I used to watch this boy play at Springvale VFA before he ended up at 9thmond. This is where he earned his nickname the "birdman"

Simon Beaumont - He was so bad you just had to feel sorry for him, although he once kicked 8 in a half against Collingwood

Jeff Farmer - Never a dull moment

Earl Spalding - Taught J Brown how to bust packs

Peter McConville - See Simon Beaumont (without the 8 goal half)

...more to come later

Stephen Tiller. Plays every now and again but can't break in regularly.

When he does play, he plays with heart. Just not very skilled.

But to me, he is Tillerific (I am going to regret this username when the inevitable happens and he is delisted).

 

[taraba]

But Bulluss played SoO! Twice! And destroyed Stewart Loewe!

More inclined to voted for Stuart Wigney, who had a golden run before breaking his ankle in Sydney and reverting to his previous form.

Jake King doesn't upset me like he does some other supporters.

Yeah that's true... He ALWAYS played well against Loewe who never seemed to like Bully's physical style of defending. He should have won the medal for SA's best during that game too. He was awesome that day.

Earl Spalding and Jeff Farmer weren't duds dude

 

[Dennis]

Earl Spaulding and Jeff Farmer weren't duds dude

Only a West Australian would say that

 

[transmed_999]

Leon neon Davis. Great player but a dud in finals.

 

[Mancey]

Only a West Australian would say that

Serious? I might not be the biggest freo fan, but you could hardly call an All Australian a dud. As for Spalding he wasn't a superstar but he was a regular in a premiership side and a very serviceable forward for 10 seasons

Duds are lucky to play 25 games, not over 200 like those 2 blokes

Anthony Rocca is the one exception of course

 

[scomac]

Andrew Lovett just loved to flog Carlton
Jason Cloke could have been anything ,Malthouse thought he was a loose man in defence.
Brent Staker look like Tarzan play like Jane.
Sentana o halpin the original work in progress
Josh Fraser i rest my case.

 

[BACCS]

Cameron Howat

What happened to him?
Luke Jericho for me.

 

[mattyfeck]

Tim Clarke. Used to butcher the footy but worked his butt off.
Josh Thurgood. God that kid used to put his body on the line and come off second best almost all the time! Loved his courage and passion though.
Richie Vandenberg. Don't know how he was ever a captain! But did play with passion. If there was a free kick down field for something behind the play you could put your house on it that Vanders gave away the free!

 

[BACCS]

Ben Nelson - Brought down by his association with Brad "The Original Lawrence Angwin" Pierce, but could play

Was not the best player in his AFL days, but has been very solid for Sturt in the SANFL for many years. Still captain (I think?).

 

[yirra_kurl]

Before we found out about the "depression" and the trade to North.

Jon Hay was a favourite of mine. He looked like he could have been a great defender!! esp. 1-on-1's

 

[yirra_kurl]

that's not to say that when I found out he had depression I stopped liking him.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

Matthew Loken

 

[Scotland]

Big bad Michael Brown from Freo.

I swear the only reason he was on the list was to get a call up from Swan Districts every once in a while to come in, belt someone and get rubbed out.

 

[Tomfoolery]

Kent Kingsley

 

[Johnson#26]

stephen patterson.

not a dud, imo, 3rd in the copeland in 1998, always a handy forward pocket.

 

[Johnson#26]

absolutely loved judd lalich, too, and had a soft spot for kasey green.

 

[TOOs_Finest]

Richard Flounder

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Mario Bortolotto - Number 6.

Sacked from the Meows.

2 Shiny gf medals.

A King among men.

 

[carlton09]

chris bryan and cory mcgrath

 

[Zvim]

Leigh Brown, he is an awesome guy irl.

 

[OniAu]

Cayden Beetham

Only cos it sounded like a type of meat, good on him

 

[Spluff]

I always liked Adam Pattison.
