Robbie.

Would love to see him hold up the cup.

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

Ooft.

 

 

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.

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 )

 

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

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

 

Shannon Byrnes also also hard done by with this criteria 

Flower.

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!

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

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.

Agree with the calls for the Ox and Robbie.

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

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.

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.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
