Modra. Was annoyed he missed those 2 GF's.. Was hoping he'd come and replace Ablett, live in Torquay,. surf happily ever after and...so he went to Freo.

While my favourite all-time player from the Crows was Chris McDermott, sometimes I wish the Crows recruited one Garry McIntosh, the legend of Norwood. A midfield consisting McDermott, Tony McGuinness, Andrew Jarman and McIntosh, even for one year, in the Crows's first year-1991, would've been great to watch.

Don't worry, the Crows very much tried to recruit Garry McIntosh - But he was Norwood through and through and didn't want to play in the AFL unless it was with Norwood..

The kind of loyalty that doesn't really exist anymore...


As for the OP; Modra - Both Jarman brothers, McLeod, Hart, Ricciuto...
I could go on but then it would just turn into a list

The weed. Used to pretend to be him all the time playing footy at school.

 

[Dirty Bird]

Aaron Keating.
Gotta love someone who was in so much in such a short amount of time

 

[Mr Chuckles]

Modra. I'd forgotten just how good he was until seeing highlights on Youtube a while back. A seemingly endless supply of spectacular marks and goals!

Honourable mention goes to a mate of mine, Linden Stevens, who played two cracking games for the Crows in the late 90s.

Modra... in '93 I wanted to marry him and have his babies! Crows were my second team for a while because of him.

Of the lesser lights, I loved the way Porplyzia went about it. It's a shame he didn't play more games.

You're talking as if he has retired..... he may play a few more games yet!

McLeod for mine. Roo a close second and also loved shouting MOOOOOODDDDDRRAAA during lunch breaks back at school

Macca was something else. Anyone who wins back to back Normies is gold. Robbed of a Brownlow too! Could do anything, one of my fave goals:

Gary Lyon's reaction is superb.......

 

[Suma Magic]

John Klug. Thought his name was hilarious as an 8 year old.

 

[candiehappy]

another vote for McLeod, just an outstanding talent.

McLeod, Roo and Modra

Gotta love a short, fat guy with a mullet, tight shorts and a long sleeve guernsey!

 

[MC Extra Dollop]

Ben Hart. I heard a story about him after the 1997 grand final post match function, as celebrations were getting into full swing. Hart (in his early 20s at the time) took the microphone and thanked everyone for coming along and then said something to the effect of "Everyone who drove here tonight, please put your keys away now, because we want this to be a great weekend and we'd be devastated to hear that someone had been in an accident on their way home from here."

What a class act.

You beat me by 24 minutes

Seriously though, Modra, the Jarman Bros and Ricciuto would be my favorites overall.

 

[loki04]

Yeah Modra by a long way bloke was a freak.

 

[jd1991]

Mark Riccuttio - I loved the way he played football. No nonsense take no prisoner type of player. Would play hard, make his team mates walk taller. I would of loved for him to of played with the hawks.

Roo, McLeod, Jarman, Godra

We've been blessed in our short history to have guys like Goody, Edwards, Hart, Smart miss out on favorite status.

Roo is my all time fav though. Get outta the way.

The fact he has a premiership medallion and Chris grant doesn't....that's rubbish.

Modra 188cm full forward freak. Smaller than most of our midfielders now.
Those two years he played with us were a joy

 

[Lord Nicholson]

Make mine McLeod.

 

[speedytiger]

Modra for me
