Bring Back One Player

[Demonland 72,161]

Easy choice for me. 

 

[Lucifers Hero 39,739]

Robbie.

Would love to see him hold up the cup.

[Lord Nev 13,512]

There'd be 'better' players, but geez, imagine a forward line mix featuring Brown, TMac, Kozzy, Fritsch and Jurrah..

Ooft.

 

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

The Wiz. 

[John Demonic 5,789]

Can't have won a premiership? Well bugger. Guess I can't choose Chris Dawes.

 

[mfcrox 143]

Robbie Flower would dominate on a wing in today's game.  He is literally built for today's style of footy.  Imagine him and Langers on each wing, then Gus slotting inside the guts.  Mouth watering.

[Big Col 1,347]

David Shwartz (circa last half of 1994 season, before the knee injuries)

Although he tarnished his reputation with meddling in  our administration: G Lyon

 

(I assume it should really be limited to living people )

[Ollie fan 3,370]

…….  but I also agree with Big Col. Schwarz was magnificent.

[BDA 22,743]

Nathan Jones. Very good player who soldiered on valiantly during some very very lean years. Such a pity he couldn't make the grand final team

[Sir Why You Little 37,033]

Allen Jakovich or Sir Robert Flower

(cannot decide!!)

Shannon Byrnes also also hard done by with this criteria 

[dl4e 5,851]

Flower.

[Deeoldfart 8,016]

Schwarta in his prime was ahead of Carey at his best imo, but I’d still go for Robbie ……. true ‘poetry in motion’.

I'd go with Jurrah as well. We only had a glimpse of what he was capable of.

Well well, here's a first!!  I'm actually going to agree with Nev.

To see the wasted talent of Jurrah in our current team would fill the "G!

[Axis of Bob 11,790]

Liam Jurrah. Some of the most fun I've ever had watching football.

Certainly was an entertainment machine as was Jakovic.

 

....but in the end it would be Robbie for me. Imagine him on one wing and the running machine Langdon on the other.

Would be the goat of midfield groups..

But for that rotten little bloke on TV on Saturdays   D ickie Knees.   

Cannot choose  the Ox or Tulip

[Queanbeyan Demon 6,843]

Beeeeeeennnneeeeeeeeeett.

But seriously . . . 

Carl at his peak was not far off being as good as Gawn, Greg Wells would be a super-duppa star in today's game, and as others have said, Tullip, Shwarrrrtaaaaa and Liam.

Flower would slot in nicely on the opposite wing to Langdon. We’ve had some great ‘flashy’ players pop up here and there but longevity and consistency is key.

[In Harmes Way 7,767]

Agree with the calls for the Ox and Robbie.

im going to add Stephen Tingay. I had a massive man crush on him.

[Hopeful Demon 1,517]

Aaron Davey. One of the most skilful players I have ever seen. He could play in just about any position.

Greg Wells

Played in a premiership with Carlton, alas.

Like many others who have already posted, I couldn't go past R. Flower as my choice.

[chook fowler 19,458]

Apart from the obvious - Tulip, I think Gary Lyon often gets forgotten. He was supremely talented and a big game player. Yze was also a personal favourite.
