Mediocre Players with Cult Status

[fugazi]

I loved him but Rod Keogh #17

[BigMart]

Lazar Vidovic

It's interesting that his popularity helped his reputation wrt his ability

[saintspremiers]

Tim Eliiott. The Hack of all hacks!

[Con Gorozidis]

Ill put my hand up - I loved the Wolfman.

Alex Marcou was very popular after the Coodabeens song.

Must be a lot in this category.

[Johnny Favier]

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.

[St.Roly]

Peter "Freezer" Freeman.

[Sainternist]

Peter "Freezer" Freeman.

Good call! Yeah, Freezer was a real favourite at Moorabbin.

Stevie Cummings was another Reserves specialist of that era who was well liked at Linton Street. Good bloke as well.

Tim Eliiott. The Hack of all hacks!

Not sure if he garnered any sort of cult status though.

Was not mediocre!
Was good. Tough as. What ever happened to him?

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.

Damen Shaw, Glen Coghlan, Rix Rox Rucks

[Winmar7Fan]

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

Jeff Hilton Hotel!

And Tommy Walsh

[Dr Spaceman]

Paul Temay. Geez he looked like Plugger.

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.

From my recollection it was later revealed to be te work of his "mates".

[plugger66]

Greg Packham.

[PADDLEPOP1001]

David Windbanks,Gary Odgers,Glen Boland

[Cairnsman]

Malcolm Scott and Michael Scott.

Anyone remember Mark Scott? Played in the late 80s?

[plugger66]

David Windbanks,Gary Odgers,Glen Boland

Harsh on Gary Odgers.

[satchmo]

Wasn't Odgers captain? and also harsh on Packham...was great but serously injured.

Jayson Daniels,played abit in the seniors, was pretty popular,left & came back.

Jack was a good goer but you're right about his kicking - ten times worse than CJ.

I think they are related. Both good players with terrible disposal.

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!
