I'm going against the grain but across the whole of the 90s I would say Knighter. Up to 1998 he was a gun player playing in ordinary teams. That 95 semi final where he single handedly kept us in the game was the stuff of legends.
I didn't say Richo because his breakout year wasn't until 1995 (which was wrecked by that ACL). It was more 1996 when the big fella kicked 91 goals in his comeback year did he begin to dominate in spite of playing in ordinary sides.
Aside from those two, Freezer was also a favourite. Him going down with that career ending ACL left a massive hole
