Peter Matera vs Today's midfielders?

[Damon_3388]

yeah but he had italian in him. I initially surprised to here he was indigenous. Phill actually looks like full italian.

Young Peter Matera (with hair) looked very Italian as well.

The later bald head (combined with the nose) made him look Middle Eastern or North African. Or like Ben Kingsley's younger brother.

Brad Hill is right there with Smith and Hartung as our best endurance athlete. He's often derided as being a soft, outside player but his run is so important to Hawthorn.
Shaun Burgoyne spoke about it recently, saying they need him in the side to burn off opponents, and how his unrewarded running creates space for his teammates. He ran Sydney ragged last week in a welcome return to form, and it went a long way to securing the win (along with Burgoyne and Rioli).
I can't think of too many others off the top of my head though.

****n love Brad Hill. Gun. Would go alright in a scrap too I reckon.

There's always a Camry flog wanting to make everything about their franchise. Let it go ffs

That's absurd! Matera is a 6 time all Australian for gods sake.

MAtera would have left Isssac for dead. Would have burnt him by half time.
