If you hasd to select an AFL footballer to play for your life - who would it be?

Question

I know, some may say it's a silly hypothetical question but if you did have to pick a footballer & they were to receive points just like in fantasy football - who would it be. I'll give 10 points to the winner. Anyone game to have a go?

Answer 1

For once in my life i would not count on Dale Thomas (sorry Daise!) but in his place i would pick Dane Swan or Marc Murphy. both good players and consistant. marc can kick goals and dane is all over the field.

Answer 2

Mark Ruccuitto

You can expect 100% commitment from him.

He'll hit packs hard.

d**n hard to tackle - especially when he gives you a "don't argue"

d**n hard tackler

Leads hard in the forward line and takes a good chest or high mark

Runs all day

Kicks the ball pretty well.

Leads from the front.

Can't remember a game when he was tagged out of a game.

I would have nominated M.Voss or G.Ablett Snr who are very much the same but loyalties swayed me towards The Roo

.

Answer 3

Chad Cornes

or Matt Richardson

Answer 4

Jonathan Brown

Answer 5

I would be selfish and pick ME!

I would play for Hawthorn move Buddy to FF cause Im playin CHF, this is life and death and I would get smashed but Id die happy

No use picking someone else he might have a shocker and your dead anyway

Answer 6

Fraser Gehrig.

Hahahahahahahaha

Answer 7

OK - if I wanted someone to put in a whole hearted performance no matter what - Glenn Archer of the Roos

If I needed someone to rack up meaningless possessions and get me points - Kane Cornes the prime ball waster of the Power

If I needed someone likely to get lots of classy possessions and do something with them - J Corey of da Cats.

If I could pick some recently retired players, Mssrs Riccuito and Buckley would be up there as would be Harvey a la Saints in his prime.

Answer 8

This year alone it would be Buddy Franklin, because even in the game where he only kicked 1 goal he still had plenty of the ball, and played down the ground a bit and took some great marks.

Answer 9

Past i would choose either Deisel Williams, SOS or Kouta (in his prime)

present players - either Judd or Fev (on a good day)

yes im a loyal blues supporter

Answer 10

Probably Alwyn Davey. He is one of the hungriest players I have ever seen and he can take on 3 - 4 players at a time. It's so sickening that he is missing another season through injury :(

Answer 11

Wayne Carey

James Hird

Answer 12

As much as i think he is overrated and a c**p captain, I'll go with Kane john stone, he averages 123.

Garry Ablett averages more, so probably him, Richo is up there too after being moved to the wing, I'd like to see his ave from last year, 87, i think it was, to this year without the first few  games  when he was  a forward only.  

Bartel, j.Corey, score well too. heath Shaw was scoring well til lately.

has to be an onballer cause they ave the most.

but if i had to actually have some one really play for my life it would be Glen Archer.
