A couple of oldies = mostly 70s.

Gary 'Crazy Horse' Cowton.
A couple of old-time ruckmen were good for a laugh - Don Scott, Crackers, the Whale
Roger Dean - you think Matthew Lloyd could dive?!? Old Rog would fall over in a light breeze. Then get up, call in Kevin Sheedy and start the blue.

For pure nonchalance, skill and elegance - Mark Bayes.

When it comes to pure all round entertainment (not just 1-2 speccies/goals a game) how can you not have Dermott Brereton, Anthony Koutoufides and Byron Pickett.

Those 3 along with Andrew Mcleod are the players I can remember the most constantly demanding the spotlight and delivering even on the biggest stages (for different reasons).

Actually come to think of it I'd chuck Libba Snr and King Carey in there aswell.
