Thought of this when Craig made a post about "our heroes" and thought who would be my heroes in 60 odd years of following Parra.
Try and keep your list to less than say 10 and remember heroes are very special and personal.
Mine would be
The Thornett Brothers, Ron Lynch
Ray Higgs, Ray Price, Brett Kenny, Eric Grothe Snr
Jarryd Hayne, Semi Ramrada
interestingly I would have had Nathan Hindmarsh but the romance has waned since he became a "TV Star".....see Heroes can be personal and emotional!

always was on my feet when big Phil Mann got the ball at fuillback but didn,t quite make the big busts I was hoping from him. Maybe would add Neville Glover in that mix Poppa --- for the biggest small guy would have to go for Paul ? Taylor
Good choices Tad, Phil Mann was special, loved Glover and it is hard not to think Paul Taylor wouldn't be very popular on this list.
I reckon PT will be a special for Bob O'Reilly and I will be surprised if "Shovells" is not on Sluggy's list.
Thanks Tad, I did my best
TAZZA 100%
I still have man crush on this bloke. As for more recent i hope Gutho becomes a lifer at the Eels. He certainly is my fav with Manu at the moment.
Cronin sat directly behind me at the 09 GF, a true gentleman.
Legend.
I dont have any 'heroes' that were sportsman, not sure ive got any heros at all but ive got plenty of favs.
Moseley
Paul Taylor
EGS
Price
Kenny
Sterlo
Fui
Clinton Schifkofske
Hindy
Johnny Peard, Ray Price, Brett Kenny, Peter Sterling, Nathan Hindmarsh, Jarryd Hayne, Semi Radradra and Clint Gutherson.
I could have picked all of the 1982-83 players.
I forgot Johnny Peard....he's up there and if Beau Scott had come a few years earlier, he would be too.
