FULLBACK HERITAGE

[hackenbush]

For years, the Dogs had a fullback production line ranging from the great to the absolute club legends.
Looking at the below list is enough to make you weep into your Doggies scarf. Every year there was high expectation with our fullbacks. Quite a few Dally M medals in this list. Hard to pick a favourite as they all had their special brilliance. Have a soft spot for Ewen Mcgrady, who was the most brilliant attacking player. Came to the Dogs in his later years,(think 26-27) when they were looking at Mick Ryan. Had troubles with the bombs, defense & living in the city. Who is your favourite.

Les Johns
Stan Cutler
Garry Dowling
Greg Brentnall
Mick Potter
Rod Silva,
Ewen Mcgrady ( also played halves)
Ben Barba
Luke Patten.

Jason Alchin

Sorry left him out

 

[Powerslide]

Jason Alchin

Jason Alchin wasn't that quick, but he could move forward, backward and sideways about at that same speed and could from a sprint stop on a dime too. Used to make me dizzy watching him.

 

[Legend23]

Hayze Perham without doubt

 

[hackenbush]

Without a doubt..... in the opposite world dimension

 

[D0GMATIC]

We had flopoate there too

[The_Chimpster]

The general. Maybe coincides to when I started following league and he was never the flashiest nor the quickest but he just got the job done and was Mr consistent.

Fastest I've seen on that list is Barba

 

[Scoooby]

BARBA was the goods, that was an exciting time, it’s a real pitty things turned out the way they did, he would have gone on to be one of the best in the game. End of.

 

[Moedogg]

Sam Perret helped us get to a GF. Not bad for a fill in.

 

[Bulldog1966]

What about Luke Goodwin!! Had a super half a season lol

 

[dogwhisperer]

My favorite of all time for the dogs was Luke Young, check out his highlights package from the 2005 season

I remember my old man taking me to Belmore and saying, "Watch this fullback, he will go well."
Tony Currie. Came as a 1 played plenty of centre.

I think Ewen Mcgrady might have pipped Ben for speed.

 

[Berries]

I think Ewen Mcgrady might have pipped Ben for speed.

Barbas change of direction at that speed is the rarest gift of all

 

[D0GMATIC]

I think Ewen Mcgrady might have pipped Ben for speed.

He was more elusive too
