That's actually pretty bad...

Ben Hollands maybe instead of Ben Holland?

What were they ever thinking with Mark Neeld??

EMERGENCIES: Craig Biddiscombe, Steven Sziller, Adam Houlihan, Marty McGrath, Ben Marsh, Shane Morrison, Luke Weller, Simon Fletcher, Bill Nicholls, Stephen O'Dwyer

I reckon we could nearly get enough for two teams!

N oway does Brian Leys belong in there.  Swap in for Brad Gwilliam. Chris Sullivan deserves a spot there somewhere as well, he can take either Lionel Proctor's or Nathan Bower's spot. (I didnt mind Proctor, I know he never played much however). Wigney was decent in 1995 too so take him out and put in John Mrakov.

I gotta disagree about Bruce Lennon. I thought he was a beautiful mover, who lacked support up forward and was forced to play CHF at only 185cm. Great Kick too. He woulda been a gun in a gun side, not unlike Tony Hall ex Hawthorn.

... some of these players i have never heard of ... the ones in bold

B     Lionel Proctor    Brian Leys         Mark McQueen
HB    Jon Howat         Stuart Wigney     Wayne Herman
C     Nathan Bower      Mark Neeld        Ben Moore
HF    Ashley Blurton    Anthony Banik     Ben Holland
F     Stevan Jackson    Steven Jurica     Paul Hudson
R     Matthew Francis   Trent Nicholls    Bruce Lennon
INT   Brett Evans       Todd Breman     Justin Plapp   Mark Pitura

to me this isn't the worst team ... where is Aaron Fiora, Andrew Mills,
anthony banik only played a hand full of games

Craig Biddiscombe, Steven Sziller, Adam Houlihan, Marty McGrath, Ben Marsh, Shane Morrison, Luke Weller, Simon Fletcher, Bill Nicholls, Stephen O'Dwyer, Ben Hollands, Marc Dragacivic, E.Poyaus (the one at sandy VFL now) ...

Justin Plapp was not that bad ... i think injuries killed him ...

SCOTT TURNER ! where is he ???

but i must say out of all those coaches who was THE WORST ...


... D.Frawley


i reckon we could make 2 or 3 teams during the 14 years !

I wouldn't have Bower, Wigney or Leys in there. Plenty worse before them. At least Bower could say he always did a job on Peter Matera.

... some of these players i have never heard of ... the ones in bold

Lucky you torch  ;D. Most in bold are from the early 90's.

Scott Turner??? :o :o Soap and Water Torch!! Scotty was great for us and a true clubman. He should be nowhere near this list. Check out some of the footage moi has on youtube and you'll see Scotty not only defending but kicking goals at the other end!

I'd add Steve Mckee to the mix.

One of Walls' specials - Wayne Thornborrow.

The failed one of the Fitzroy trio who came across with Broddes and Micky Gale - Matt Dundas.

Good memory MT. He was bad. Made Steve McKee look like Judd.

Totally agree with you blaisee - Bruce Lennon played some really good footy the year Jeans coached us and in Northey's first year to this day I don't know why they cut him. Beautifully skilled and super courageous.

I remember him because he came to the Tigers a year later than planned because he suffered a knee injury that required a reco. But all the experts at the time said that we had drafted a qulaity player
