Who do you think is the toughest/most courageous player(s) of the last 13 years?

Crunch ball Rory
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Jack Rewoldt   :ROTFL 



Duncan Kellaway taking Nathan Buckley to the cleaners & finishing him off by knocking him out  :clapping

Tim Fleming. If he ever copped one he would give 2 back. Flew the flag in a group of Squibs.   :fencing

Chicken Act  goes to Joel Bowden against the maggot-pies instead of going the fist he got the ball & threw it to a maggot-pie. Something that burned into me skull. & l'm a huge Bowden supporter   :cutetiger

Another one was where he turned his back on an all in, can't remember the game but I think it was in his last year

That was the same game. Shane Tuck and a few others also decided to play football instead of brawl, are those guys squibs too? Save the brawling for when we're the side up by 10 goals.

Yiew Staff. He was one of my favourties, his battles with Spider were brilliant. Dangerous unit.

Paul Broderick for me, although he only retired in 2001. Mark Chaffey I thought was tough too. I was pretty young when those two guys played the most of their football, but I remember them being my favourites.

Otherwise strongly agree with Staff (loved how he dropped the knees in), Hilton (brave), Coughlan (real pity), Bowden (always going back with the flight), Kellaway brothers, oh and of course Richo although he wasn't a dirty/imposing player IMO he was very brave/tough.
