Top Ten Worst AFL Footballers Ever

Postby Media Park » Thu Jun 16, 2011 9:33 pm

whufc, of Gold Coast supporting fame, threw out the massive call on James Sellar as one of the top ten worst AFL footballers ever...

Seeing as though we've all seen a few spuds, and all had a few anti-hero favorites, I'll leave out a poll at this stage... ;)

Of players given a semi-decent run, which is to say guys who were on the list for a few years, and played a few games...

I come up with Cain Ackland.

Thoughts, guys....

David Gallagher, Ian Downsborough, Myke Cook and James Sellar are my top 4 worst for the crows.
Go you Redbacks!

Ty Zantuck is one I think of, and after a few more games, Karmichael Hunt...

James Manson of Collingwood ... not sure how he ever managed to kick the ball more than 20 yards
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.

I swear he is the worst player I've ever seen at that level. Couldn't even play SANFL with any conviction.

He was average, but not the worst I've seen. Kicked one of the best goals I've ever seen too.

Austin McCrabb was probably the worst regular full backs I've seen.

David Laffy was a key defender in the mid/late 80's for Richmond, myself and my brother used to laugh at how bad he was.

Aaron Keating would be up there as one of the worst players to win a premiership.

I'll raise you Allan Bartlett.

At least Smith had a stack of SANFL premiership medals to make him feel better.

On that line Sean Dempster from Saint Kilda has now played in 5 AFL GF's a couple with Sydney and a few with the Saints, he would have to be the worse bloke to play in 5 Grand Finals.

Not a bad strike rate though ... 3 games for a flag.

Robert Scott? I rated "the Geek". Stephen Hocking was handy too.

Robert Scott was a good player.
