Name your pack...Then

[maxta]

Just a change of mood around here...

Give us your best (TOUGH) pack - And a few things why they get the gig...trick is you have
to have seen them play!!! - Example I never seen Mal Reilly who was respected Big time!

Not so much (Best)...more a pack to make the opposition tremble....3 bench players also

8 - Kevin Ward - The Ultimate Front Rower, ripped in - always went forward - tougher than teak.
9 - Tooves - A Warrior and Manly Legend - toughest little or big man I have seen in the game
10 - Carroll - Aggression and Attitude - Loves the collision
11 - Randall - Hardest tackler I have seen - the man was granite
12 - Boyd - Fiery nuggety bloke with pace and aggro all day...would need calming in the modern game!
13 - Kennedy - The leader with words and action....contagious winning Attitude

Bench -
14 - Watmough - Student of Kennedy - forget the end days, this bloke busted his head All day
15 - Roberts - Super talent who also loved to smash the opposition
16 - Gibbs - On pure guts and determination, on 1 leg would still scare opposition with Energy and will to win

Now the trick - add only 2 from this pack you would add for 2019

Hard decision but feel these 2 would add plenty of whats....Missing....

13 - Kennedy - Gave the team belief and mental steel - showed them how to compete to be a Winner!!
16 - Gibbs - I seen this bloke crawling up field for his team with 4 St G players on his back for his team
....maybe a suprise choice but crunched players in defence and an Ex centre , had pace in attack - No Fear!!

Kevin Ward and Terry Randall from that pack....I'd have Reilly and Gillespie too if they'd got a mention.

 

[maxta]

Kevin Ward and Terry Randall from that pack....I'd have Reilly and Gillespie too if they'd got a mention.

Had Gillespie in 1st and though many will hate my decision - exchanged for Watmough....based on blockbusting runs and workrate...

 

[ManEagle]

Carroll and Boyd for the very reason you describe, passion, attitude and agro....Might spend more time suspended these days but training would be intense for the Kleenex brigade !!!

 

[Briza]

Kevin ward
Max krillich
Mark Carroll
Steve menzies
Terry Randall
Jake turbo

Ian Roberts
Watmough
Fat man
Gillespie

 

[mozgrame]

Two I'd add for next year....

Kennedy for his leadership qualities. He knew how to get the most out of young blokes. Could make a good forwards coach. I remember him saying once that he always told young blokes coming up to fill in for injured/suspended regulars......don't come to fill a gap, come to make a difference.

Carrol for his aggression and general presence on the field.

 

[manlyfan76]

Imagine how many insta snaps Chesty Bonds would fire off if he was a player in 2018.

 

[manlyfan76]

But Carrol and Roberts for me.

 

[mozgrame]

Kevin ward
Max krillich
Mark Carroll
Steve menzies
Terry Randall
Jake turbo

Ian Roberts
Watmough
Fat man
Gillespie

I like your inclusion of Menzies. He is rarely mentioned in talks of toughness...but his relatively injury free career speaks volumes aboout his overall toughness.

Good choice

 

[bob dylan]

Randall would tighten up our ruck, and Roberts for plain skill.

 

[Woodsie]

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:

Any pack that doesn't include Mal Reilly is wrong ...

 

[Top End Eagle]

I'm obviously younger than some of you.
Carrol
Ballin
Kite
Menzies
Watmough
Kennedy

Jake T
Kosef
Gillespie.

Well, it's in the dictionary....
Tough : adjective: Mal Reilly

Good choice

My pack was chosen mainly for mongrel defence wise out of my fave players, but Randall was also a good ball runner and off loader .

 

[40 years an eagle]

Ward.
Freddy Jones
Spud
Randall
Menzies
Reilly

Now that's a pack.

Roberts
Choc
Boyd
Gillespie/Rambo


Scary

 

[brad]

Id throw Crusher in the mix somewhere. A damaging ball runner in his own right .

 

[Tomay]

Gillmeister and Petero would be on my list. Brad Clyde depending on criteria as well.

What years did those guys play for us?

 

[Tomay]

What years did those guys play for us?

I’ve had a few beers and that wasn’t in the criteria, should probably have read everyone else’s teams

 

[Kevinward777]

I’d like to personally thank all those on here who have recognised that I am a worthy candidate for this toughest pack thread. Nice thread btw @maxta. But to those of you who failed to include me, all I can say is **** ***! There’s been a few warnings handed out on various Silvertails threads of late because every man and his dog are trading insults and threats, so i thought I might try and join in on the action. I’ll ****** smash anyone who disagrees with me. Any of you ***** want a shot at the title, then jump on a plane and head on over. I might be an old man, but I’m still a lot ****** harder than any of you lot.
