ill start this one off with one of my team mates. Jarrod Munn. 5'7 if hes lucky, usually hovers around 48-49 kg apparently. ive seen him take some huge hits but cant recall ever seeing him stay down for too long.
also has a real crack at keeping up drikning with some big blokes. pound for pound shits on most of us!
who else around the state is of similar stature that cops a hiding but keeps getting up?

Plays for Willunga in GSFL
Tiny guy but has taken the biggest hits I've ever seen and never stays down or retaliates. Gun.

He's paying for it now, I promise ya.
Although, he still runs pretty much everyday - if you ever see a miner's lamp bobbing towards you at 10 o'clock at night, it's him running.

Simon Tucker for Mitcham. Has been hit time and time again and just gets back up. Always seems to get hit twice as hard when we play Portland. Even gets knocked out and gets up. Team mates get inspired when that happens...

Brett Penn @ HDFC
Short stocky midfielder who actually ran through a brick wall once. Great contested mark for a small fella. Multiple B&F winner.

Tony Zanker - Heccies/PNU/Burnside-Kensington - back in his day.
He's a short arse but one of the toughest blokes I've seen play footy.
