Ill put my hand up - I loved the Wolfman.

John Peter-Budge gets my nod for this award.
Apparently he was an absolute beast on the track and in the twos, but couldn't really bring it when he played in the seniors.

Good call! Yeah, Freezer was a real favourite at Moorabbin.St.Roly wrote:Peter "Freezer" Freeman.
Stevie Cummings was another Reserves specialist of that era who was well liked at Linton Street. Good bloke as well.
Not sure if he garnered any sort of cult status though.saintspremiers wrote:Tim Eliiott. The Hack of all hacks!

Re: Mediocre Players with Cult Status
I'm with you, Con. Rocket Keogh was definitely not a mediocre footballer. Seemed to be an integral part of the team during the Stan Alves era.Con Gorozidis wrote:Was not mediocre!fugazi wrote:I loved him but Rod Keogh #17

Mark Scott was unstoppable like Tony Lockett in the Reserves but every time he was elevated to the firsts could barely kick a goal.
Max Crow the Essendon reject 65 metres out with a big torpedo never missed but 30 metres out dead in front would go anywhere but between the goal posts.
Terry Smith always looked Impressionable with his long hair running around the mid field but never made it.
Phil Narkle
Tony Brown
Paul Callery
Glen Middlemiss

Re: Mediocre Players with Cult Status
In the old days when it was common for people to drape home made banners on the fence, there was one at Moorabbin that read "Paul Temay Can't Play". It was, I think, on the occasion of Temay's senior debut.satchmo wrote:Paul Temay. Geez he looked like Plugger.
From my recollection it was later revealed to be te work of his "mates".

Jack was a good goer but you're right about his kicking - ten times worse than CJ.wally wrote:Jayson Daniels,played abit in the seniors, was pretty popular,left & came back.

I think they are related. Both good players with terrible disposal.bergholt wrote:Jack was a good goer but you're right about his kicking - ten times worse than CJ.wally wrote:Jayson Daniels,played abit in the seniors, was pretty popular,left & came back.

Jack gets my nod over CJ as he left us to play with the Swines but then commonsense hit him and he came back home to Moorabbin.
Also liked the ranga hair!
