My 82yo old man, who is a mad Carlton supporter but a very astute football judge, has always said that John Coleman is easily the best footballer he has seen.

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

The 90's was the golden era of footy and deserves a rep.
Wouldn't mind seeing one of Lockett, Ablett, Silvagni or Carey.
Leaning towards Ablett, purely because of some of the finals games he was involved in at the ground.

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.
Good call.
"Jesaulenko, you beauty!"
Seriously, that would be great to see. They've got something similar outside the Fremantle Oval main gate:

Judd or Lockett

A statue just isn't enough is it. I think they'll just rename the ground on the day he retires.

Your dad is obviously an exceptional man, because these 2 don't usually go together.

And if you asked John Coleman if he 'played AFL', he'd have no idea what you were talking about.
How is this even a question?

John Bourke but not when he knocked over the umpire.
When he jumped the fence & belted the spectator.
OR
A life size version of St Kildas infamous "animal cage". Supporters shouldn't be forgotten.

Golden era of footy that will never be forgotten.
I would have these four along with Lethal if he aint there already.
Wonder how many defenders out there would look at this photo and tear up from all the trauma.

Coleman already has one in Hastings
I guess this would make him the first Australian footballer of any code to have two statues(?)

I feel it's a little too exclusive to the white man.

...well the world seems to have forgotten about Tiger Woods' immorality and deciet. Hey let's forget about Wayne's too. Yep, put him in bronze so we can worship him.
Should have been Michael tuck
Games record holder, most premierships played in (most as captain too)
Of corse, with lethal, they need to even up the clubs

Carey 1, Ablett 2.
But I dunno, there's only so many footballers you can have.
Or, thinking laterally, Ablett and Steven Silvagni wrapped around him like an octopus on a jam jar?
