which player do you love the most in the AFL

[Bill Manspeaker]

in lieu of the thread about who you hate the most; who do you love the most in the AFL? not including your own team of course.

brain not functioning all that well at the moment, but I'll add to it down the line... the ones that come to mind straight away are;

Dal Santo
McEvoy
Watson (controversial or not, I really like Jobe)
J.Brown
Ablett
Matty White
Dahlhaus
Jarryd Roughead
Bartel

and so many more. but I'll add to it later.

[Vinny]

Watson
Pavlich
Selwood
Hodge
Chappy
Beams
Pendles
Swan
NRoo
Dal Santo
Ablett
O'Meara
Giansiracusa
NJones
Cotchin
Deledio
Hayes
Joey
Gibson
Richards
Cannon

Will add more, good thread Brad. ;)

Ablett
Smitchell
Stevie J
The hoff
Mayes
Stanton
Fyfe
Duffield
Sam Gibson
Hampton

3. Whitecross
2. Tex

[Mat0369]

Lenny Hayes probably tops the list with Kieren Jack second.

The others off the top of my head

Betts
Laidler
Harley Bennell
Both Josh Kennedy's
Rockliff
Gaz
Pendles (even though I hate Collingwood, he is a freak and I want him at Carlton)
Tom Mitchell
Ryan O'Keefe
Big Cox
Robbie Gray
Jeremy Cameron
Dangerfield
Leuenberger
Cannon

Luke Parker and Wingard are both heading towards that list soon, I love the way they go about their football, Tex at the Crows reminds me a bit of Fev, so he should probably be on there as well.

Obviously Brisbane Players but outside Brisbane:

Pendles
Gazz
Cox
Sandialnds
Dangerfield
Mundy
Hayes
Dal Santo
Daniel Wells
Both Swallows - David and Andrew

Have loved Chappy for as long as I can remember. He is number 1 for me, and I have had a SC man crush for Hibberd for a few years now

Chapppy
J Brown
Pendles
Swan
Jobe
Fyfe
Super Pav
Bartel
Harry Taylor
Jelwood
Stevie J
