 Played Junior footy with Justin Kosi and went to his 21st many moons ago - met NRoo, Nick DalSanto and a lot of blokes who are now retired - Fraser Gehrig most notably. Met Lenny Hayes when I was in hospital a few years back. My wife went to school with Daniel Cross and I've met him a few times.

Vinny

Met Daniel Jackson and Jakey King at a Leadership day once. :P

Jarryd Roughead at Auskick when I was little, Buddy was meant to come but didn't :(

Nige

Met a number of Tiges back at the family day at Jells Park several years ago.

Got Bling's autograph and shook hands with the great man.  8)

I've met plenty of players. And played against 2 of them. Steele Sidebottom (Under 17s) kicked 5 goals by half time and finished up to play Seniors later in the day. Then I played against Mark Whiley twice when he played for Finley (Under 17s) and had to tag him and first time he got a way a little bit, but the 2nd time I completely shut him down so they took him off mid way through the 3rd and he ended up getting best on for the seniors later that day.

And i've also met Mal Michael in Albury, blind off his arse with his team mates. haha Was a top bloke.

Bill Manspeaker

I played junior footy with Matty White. he was a freak. he'd get the ball in the backline and run the whole ground and kick goals. this was like under 10s and 11s I think and back then we all knew he'd play in the AFL
