Just watching Biff, Bumps and Brawlers and was wondering who in your view was the dirtiest player on the field. The names i throw up are Lewis,Worsfold, Grinter, Williams, Lockett. Keen to know your thoughts

I've moved this thread to the footy forum for what should be obvious reasons :)

David Rhys Jones. Speaks for itself.

Leigh Matthews. Sniper. But also one of the best players I have ever seen play the game.

If you're talking post 1990 - Barry Hall.

Dippierdethuggero How he & Greg Williams won Brownlows is beyond me.

I have taken little interest in the award since sadly.

that and Lockett

So you want 1990 onwards? I'll have Pickett.

that and Lockett

Lockett was outstanding in 1987, but i do take your point.

So were Williams and Dipper in their respective years of B'low glory.

Leigh Matthews. Sniper. But also one of the best players I have ever seen play the game.

Leign Matthews was hardly the sniper. Often he was front and centre with the "hard" stuff.

One of the greatest players I have seen.

Should have won a B'low one year where he dominated every other award by a country mile.

If we are talking AFL time then Grinter and Matthews are out of contention.

They were far from the Fairest...ever.

And Lockett was???

Think about it.......

Think about it.......

He was pretty fair in 1987 (except to Eddie McGuire-but he probably deserved it)-He got dirtier as time went on

I saw a lot of saints game at moorabin in '87 Lockett & Winmar were just carving them up

He was pretty fair in 1987

So were Dipper and Williams in their respective B'low years. Just the same as Lockett.

Tip: None of them were found guilty of a misdemeanour in their B'low years.

I cant see how you can single out Lockett but apply different standards to Williams and Dipper.

mines Chris Lewis based on what he has been suspended for, biting (viney) kicking ( think it was a dees player). Seecamp was a dirty player for the dees, i remember an incident when he punched a blue player after the game. Now a days it would be the Carr brothers,Mooney, Barry Hall

Dipper & Williams applied there own standards-i didn't have to do a thing.

Seecamp punched Brad Pierce in the face at 1/4 against the Blues in '98. Probably deserved it though.

Libba would have to be one of the worst mongrels I've seen on field.

He used to give me and the opposing team the s*#ts...

But he was good at it for so long.

And there was that game against Richmond where he sniped Matty Knights... that was certainly a memorable one.

Good call Libba and all his scratches-what a low life!!!

Leign Matthews was hardly the sniper.

Neville Bruns might disagree.

Often he was front and centre with the "hard" stuff.

One of the greatest players I have seen.

Agreed - he was in the top 5 I've seen but he was a thug in a time thugs ruled.

Roger Merrett ?

Dale Kickett anyone? Didn't he get rubbed out for 10+ weeks for punching Phil Read a couple of times? For that matter, Phil Read?

Both probably too ordinary to bother remembering actually.

Adam Goodes, This mongrel is very dirty but flys under the radar.

you obviously didn't see his king-hits on giles and stephen smith.

Dipper & Williams applied there own standards-i didn't have to do a thing.

Dippierdethuggero How he & Greg Williams won Brownlows is beyond me.

I think your earlier statement speaks volumes about your position on this.

Neville Bruns might disagree.

No sniping there. It was an out in the open king hit away from the ball

Agreed - he was in the top 5 I've seen but he was a thug in a time thugs ruled.

He copped alot but gave back a little more.

Kickett should have got a medal for hitting Read who was a serial pest,a very ordinary footballer and overrated tough man.

you obviously didn't see his king-hits on giles and stephen smith.

And neither did they....

As you said they were king hits. Hardly sniping. In the age on all ground TV replays Lethal was one of those footballers that hit opponents front and centre. No cute hits, gouges or punches in a pack.

I agree with the poster who put Libba up for consideration. The longer he played, the more miserable a sniper he became. Hard to think he won a B'low, Gardiner and Morrish medal.

Yeah 'front and centre of the back of the head!!!!'

Two names spring to mind.....

DUSTIN FLETCHER

Don't even get me started....
