Question 1: Who would you want to be and why?

Question 2: Who do you think others think you are and why?

Question 3: Who are you really and why?


For me…

1. Wayne Johnston. Mainly for the chicks but also because he’s my all time favourite player who turned up when it mattered most and also the chicks.

2. Ryan Houlihan. Can be slick at times and some great skills but maybe lacking a bit of hunger/grunt/beast.

3. Lachie O’Brien. Captained my school at year 9 level and had a decent left foot but in the wash up didn’t really care that much for it and although I was capable of putting my head in the mincer wasn’t up to doing it every time.

Who’s next? :smile:

1. The Buzz, had it all and I don't think he had to work hard for it either!

2. Ron Delulio- passionate and had his moments but not considered for the ultimate test

3. Mark Arceri - short, injury prone and failed to deliver as hoped

1. Sticks. Mad leader, great player, sick cauliflower on the piss. Gave back to the club once he had retired.
2. Jordan Russell. Highly skilled but unfullfilled, couple of exceptional years but generally a warm body who either got picked as 15-22 player or played 2s.
3. Stephen Oliver. Likes the country lifestyle, big fish small pond etc.


Good thread.

1. Craig Bradley. Consumate professional, extremely fit, good at all sports, never put in a bad performance

2. Jon Dorotich. Good bloke but also a bit of a wanker

3. Bruce Doull. An introvert, losing my hair, quite a defensive type

1. Paul Meldrum. Gun player and a good looking rooster to boot.

2. Adrian Hickmott. Picked for being honest and hard at the footy but can still do a couple of nice things.

3. Lance Whitnall. My body just can't keep pace with my expectations.

1. Fev. Most naturally gifted footballer who could hold his own against any opposition.
2. Andrew Carrazzo could find the ball, good hands but very hit and miss by foot
3. Fev. Wasted talent due to compete lack of discipline

1 - Ragsy- spectacular player, style, dash, flair...you name it he had it and yep plenty of chicks!
2 - Buzz - plenty of highlights but too busy with my own reflection.
3 - Greg Williams - for the reasons why Carlton first rejected him, not the reasons why he became a star.

1. Kouta. Had it all. The rig.
2. Greg Williams. Wasnt much i didnt win, Good by hand and foot, but couldnt kick it longer than 40m, rarely missed a target and could see the game unfold.
3. Fraser Brown. Hard, uncompromising, and didnt mind the mud.

1. Peak Kouta. Absolutely unstoppable and could tear an oppo to shreds all by himself. Could play anywhere and do it all.

2. Campo. Very classy OUTSIDE player who could make big contributions, finish well and give excellent lip to the umps (and oppo).

3. Braddles. Fitter now than in my heyday. Ok serious answer would be Cain Ackland. Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane. Id be on the podium as one of the very worst players to ever play for the club :lol:

Jezza. The one and only. The Legend, The GOAT. Breathtaking. Electrifying. Spine tingling. The type of player that drew people to the football. Loved by friend and foe. Genuinely decent bloke. All of which would also have helped with the chicks

Ronnie De Lulio. Slick, skilled, talked the talk, offered promise, popular in his day, but mostly couldn’t walk the walk

Lawrence Angwin. Unfulfilled promise. A few misdemeanors. Nah. Just jokin….He was way taller than me

1. Wayne Johnston - always dominated the big games
2. Bruce Doull - quiet and dependable
3. Simon Minton-Connell - played some excellent games but could never quite find the right role for his size
