Which player do you miss the most?

[mattys123]

Ben Reid...oh wait.

Gavin Brown and Scott Burns were the last 2 numbers I wore on the back of my jumper, both played the game the same way, hard, tough and with leadership.

 

[LukeH10]

Didak. He was a master #dids #childhoodfave

 

[Collingwood pro]

Gordon Coventry, could use those 4.24 goals a game. Or Eddie Harris heard he was pretty good in his time.

Millane - I want a modern day enforcer that could run through players and get inside their heads...but also kill them with skill and class.

What about brad rowe?

What about brad rowe?

I won't lie, he was a very, very close second.

My counsellor says..............NO!

Daicos. No explanation needed.

I was a young kid at Waverley in 1992 when he kicked that soccer goal close to the boundary, Silvagni trailing behind him. The crowd went berserk. It was the loudest I've ever heard Collingwood fans, only to be matched two years later when McGaune goaled after seven bounces (was also at that game).

 

[PieBeast]

He was terrible

of not on

And more precisely I'd like to know what he was smoking when he chose that user name

 

[domus]

Daicos, Greening, Wayne Richardson, Tuddy, Price. Len Thompson, Peter Moore, Carman....sorry-I got greedy.

 

[PieMan!]

DIDS

 

[Maggie5]

Too many to choose from. Most have already been mentioned Daics, Clement, Brown, Carmen, plus Magro, Banks, Picken, Ray & Tony Shaw, lots of great memories.

 

[Bard]

Of players I've seen? Probably Didak for the pure excitement and hype.

If I could pick one player I haven't seen it'd be Daicos, Carman or Greening.

Favourite memory of Didak is probably his 3 in 3 minutes against West Coast... It was irrelevant to the game's outcome but it was just... fun.

 

[Rusty22]

Buckley

 

[Gone Critical]

The player I loved the most just for the way he went about it Gavin Brown. Was a great but not the greatest but just played the game like few could but everyone wished they could be brave enough to do so.

Bucks was just the best Pie I have seen

Greening and Carmen were potentially the 2 best although never made it for 2 different reasons. Greening probably the better of them. As much as I loved Daics these 2 were just in another class to him when it came to dominating games and the opposition.

 

[YeahNahYeahNah]

Leon Davis

 

[Heir_Apparent]

Buckley and Didak for me, they both usually created something when they got it.

 

[THATSGOLD]

Sav Rocca. You went to the footy to watch him kick bags of goals. Exciting games.

 

[shizzle]

Daicos

 

[spartan-magpie]

Daicos. Boba fide superstar, champion, legend, freak, marvel, wonder. Bloody star.

Also would love to have Micky McGuane, graham wright, Paul Williams, Darren Milane, bucks and rowdy running around.


When you think about it there's probably 20 odd players you'd love to see running around in our black and white jumper.


Edit. Forgot to add the big savaloy, along side derm, his footy brain.

 

[DrDavoren]

Luke Godden as I can't believe he actually got games

 

[ThePhantom777]

Tony Francis. Loved his work in the midfield. Good aggression.
Interesting recent interview with him here: http://m.adelaidenow.com.au/sport/a...eek-tony-francis/story-fnia3nln-1226945986336

 

[Quicky]

Rupert Betheras. Because he was all heart, and we all loved yelling out Ruppeeee whenever he touched the ball

Oh man Rupert was awesome. My favourite memory of him is a game in 2001 where we beat Brisbane by 3 points in a low scoring game. Rupert kicked 3 goals i think including a late one. It was the first time I ever remember thinking our team was a chance of going somewhere. The 90's roundly sucked for our footy team.
