Who is/was your favourite old school player?
Tough, hard as nails, no bells and whistles, puts in every week and has never been selected for rep football.
My favourite was Colin van der Voort.

Mark Laurie for sure. Never got his dues. But was definitely a weapon for Kenny and Sterlo to play behind.
Away from our team my favourite player in the 80's was Brad Izzard. Tough nut who can motor for a big unit and had that bit of an X factor. Never a grub either.
I loved watching Ruben Wiki when I was growing up. A real wrecking ball and was great watching him hit the line when he had the long hair.
Rep player
Not sure if they qualify as old school but as far as non Parra players go, the first players that came to mind were Craig Gower, Royce Simmons, StaceyJones and Shane Webcke
