I'd probably go with Lambert just ahead of Campbell. They were freaks at getting the footy. Barry Rowlings was another who seemed to get 30+ kicks every week.  Never handballed though and scrubbed a few.

You don't have to be an in and under player to be called a ball magnet. KB by a long shot. The ball always appeared to be in his hands especially at crucial times.

Broderick , Weightman, Lambert, Tony Free when he played in the middle and Campbell were all great ball magnets.

Is it your enlarged prostate that gets you up so early or something else?
