Your Top 5 Living Legends, Club by Club

[Ronnie]

Paul Bagshaw
Rick Davies
Peter Motley
Bruce Lennon
Chris Threadgold

John Halbert and Jack Oatey for Lennon and Threadgold in my opinion. Possibly even Michael Graham for Peter Motley.

Living legends knocks out old Jack but yes, John Halbert should be on the list. A fantastic on/off field record.

Craig Tasborski

That's fair enough.
I hadn't forgotten about Halbert, I just chose the other two for their loyalty to the club - yes Lennon was at Richmond for two years - during our darkest hours.

In which way was John Halbert disloyal to Sturt?

Malcolm Blight
Ralph Sewer
Bob Simunsen
Max Parker

[NO-MERCY]

Neil Kerley
Ken Eustice
Robert Day
Robert Loveday
Grant Fielke.

Tossed up between Loveday and Meuret but Loveday did a lot of hard yards for us, including stepping into the breach and coaching us for a year when we found ourselves without one.

Would Doug Thomas go close? I don't profess to know much about his off-field time with Westies (nor onfield time for that matter), but like or loathe, his is a name that has been widely associated with Westies over a long long period of time.

Another one of those BITTER ONES nickname.

[Squawk]

In no particular order
1. Peter Jonas
2. Alan Stewart
3. John Platten
4. Kris Grant
5. Gary Window

Tough list with our recent premiership success i really really really really tried to fit Daniel Hulm, Darryl Hicks and the Gowans brothers in there but 8 doesn't fit into five.

maybe an easier list would be one for playing exploits and one for off field exploits

PLAYERS
1. John Platten
2. Daniel Hulm
3. Gary Window
4. Chris Gowans
5. James Gowans

COACHING/OFF FIELD
1. Peter Jonas
2. Alan Stewart
3. Kris Grant
4. Darryl Hicks
5. Roy Laird

I like first list in particular - really shows how far Central has come when you look at the whole package, ie on and off the field.

Michael Graham for Peter Motley. Not in this lifetime

[whufc]

On the same sort of line you could probably do a list for top 5 cult figures at each football club.

1. W.Wilson
2. S.Morrey
3. R.Mandimanker
4. Gowans x2
5. S.Dew

Would Neil Kerley rate, seeing as he was captain-coach of the most recent premiership?

[Dog_ger]

Sturt

No Jim Tilbrook...?

Peckers

No Craig McKeller?

[McAlmanac]

No Craig McKeller?

Only 4 seasons - not etched enough in the annals of the club living-legend-wise.

Surely the snouts would have to have "Snout" McFarlane at the top of that list
