Just who will be the next AFL player to be given an MCG statue?

[pazza]

Those who saw Before The Game over the weekend would have seen the little skit done by Ryan Fitzgerald and Kevin Bartlett about the next statue to be on the concourse outside of the MCG.

Well the news from the MCG today is that John Coleman will be the next statue.

 

[RobertRichter]

Seaton Football Club's gate collector.

 

[Quivorir]

 

[Bluelegs]

Jock Mchale deserves one.

 

[Blugazi]

I bow down at the church of Thurgood.

 

[Jaeger]

 

[The Prosecutor]

How many games did Coleman play on the MCG? Seems somewhat undeserving imv.

Selection criteria for the Australia Post Avenue of Legends dictates candidates must be Australian, renowned for their sportsmanship and that they or their sport played is connected with the MCG.

 

[aussierulesrules]

Majak Daw, surely, or is that just a given?

To be closely followed by Luke McDonald.

 

[RobertRichter]

Mark Robinson.

 

[Jamurp]

Mark McGough, the statue to be lit up when it's raining.

 

[Ghostwriter]

Judd, they've already made the mould.

 

[gbatman]

possible someone from the team of the century

B: Bernie Smith (Geelong) Stephen Silvagni (Carlton) John Nicholls (Carlton)
HB: Bruce Doull (Carlton) Ted Whitten (Footscray) Captain Kevin Murray (Fitzroy)
C: Francis Bourke (Richmond) Ian Stewart (St Kilda, Richmond) Keith Greig (North Melbourne)
HF: Alex Jesaulenko (Carlton, St Kilda) Royce Hart (Richmond) Dick Reynolds (Essendon)

Possible from ones not in that, Lockett, Judd, Voss, Buckley, Hird, Kernahan, Goodes, Scarlett, Dunstall, Carey, Ablett Jr, maybe one of Chappy where you can rub his head on the way past.

 

[Silent Alarm]

Judd, they've already made the mould.

If he was to get one, surely it'd have to be with hands on knees, shorts pulled down, and a mouth wide-open and face wincing. The signature Judd.

Its a no brainer peoples

If you look for the player who has most dominated internet, TV, radio, print, and general pub discussion, one stands above them all.

With one kick, he changed footy in this country forever

This is what the statue will be....

Excellent, well deserved.

I look forward to placing a Collingwood jumper on it and renaming it the Athas Hrysoulakis statue for every Collingwood home game.

 

[Blue Dangerfield]

Does plugger already have one?

He was pretty good I seem to remember.

 

[Plugger35]

Steven Baker

 

[QuietB]

Mark Robinson.

Might have to wait until the resources boom cools for that one

 

[Cynic]

Demetriou to have one included as part of his next package.

Probably a gold statue though.
