Have a look at Rob Flowers State games, He was always best on or second best on ground! If he was in a Powerhouse team like Essendrug, Carltank, Collingwood, Hawks or any other POWER team of the period he would be Quadruple Brownlow Medalist and Quadruple Premiership player! Gee we failed him Dismally! He was the most ELITE player we have ever ever had!

The question you have to ask is How many of our current players would walk into ANY other side??? ???? ok Max in most. C;larry as well! Rob Flower would walk into ANY TEAM OF ANY ERA Case closed!

Yep and that is WHY we have not won a Flag in a ZILLION Years!

ELITE TO ME IS 10/10 We have none of these Max 9.5 Clarry 9.0 Currently!!

I tend to disagree Hemingway very skilled and quick, have a look at his stats got plenty of it and good ball user . He would put plenty of our current guys to shame with his skills!

Another one he used to use was "Paul Callery here I'm not available but leave a message and remember If you think FANTASTIC , then you'll be FANTASTIC!"

Des Campbell??

BEST PLAYERS FOR MINE WERE Stretch, Lyon, Jackson, Duursma, Wight, Grinter, Spalding good after half time and Flintoff very good when he came on!

Flintoff, a very underrated performance!

Paul "The Count" Callery turned 70 today. Great footballer and an even better bloke! Still very active. Congratulations! PF

I'm still Bawlin!!!?

Lin Jong ( have I spelt it correctly) has had a horrendous run of injuries but I really rate him highly!

Yep agree I would love to have an Alan Jacovich running around today. Tingay was a sensational player A better comparison might have been Jacovich Vs Robbo!?

We could call it From "Versace to Dimmeys" ( what-ifs maybes might have beens)

2 meters sheeeeeit Just when I was erasing it from memory and the Chump Hooked it Jaheeesus all he had to do was drop it in a straight line onto his boot!! Typical Ormond Ammo! Would not have happened at De La far too Polished! Shocking shocking miss !!

Definately amd emphatically NOT We already have one with KK, Do we want to take a very risky and already life comprimised player into the fold?? Nup!

Alan Johnson similar to Stretch, ah no sorry, no where near top 20 or 22! Brett Lovett, on the other hand would have been a great player in ANY era! IMV Criminally underated!

YZE by a Zillion yards TJ a very very lazy footballer!!

Oh Gawd why did you have to bring up his name?? His Miss in the 87 Preliminary Final was possibly the worse miss in the History of the game!! Just when I was erasing it from my memory !!?

I think you have got it Jeremy Nichols if correct good get!!?

Ok and so given that then players clearly still haven't learnt that you have to be ACCOUNTABLE and play two way footy! Agree some very simple goals but still I believe our shocking habit to just bomb long should have been remedied LONG ago!

Craig Smoker?? Used to light up the MCG!!???

Terry Wilkins Kelvin Clarke Dennis Clark Marty Lyons Daryl Cumming Peter Thorne all played some good footy at MFC Greame and Ken Osborne, the former, a great player over many years for MFC in some dark days Paul Rowlands, Phil Rhoden, Obscure but played some footy at MFC, Marty Lyons kicked 4 on debut vs Footscray at the G. His son Jarred Lyons should be an MFC Player, we did have the chance and for some reason reneged on the opportunity. Now a great player at Brisbane! Good bloke Marty! Peter Thorne heck of a nice bloke and once kicked 8 goals in a senior game Is it just me or do others agree that in many cases the MFC DIABOLiCAL in developing and nurturing players throughout the ages compared to many other clubs!

I thought him pretty average and slowish!

Agree and what...... Exactly, had we done about that TERRIBLE inside 50 connection in the off season?????? Over to the coaches and if not coaches, players who cannot carry out the strategy. If the players then get rid of those who are perennial offenders and get in some who CAN DELIVER. If coaches then at the end of season, expect to see some major changes at MFC
