Team before individual mentality?
Probably need to question Fullers inclusion in your list NH.
Didn't he get the arse from Woodville because of this reason?

MAtthew Clarke..
Crusher.
Wilson, Gower, Fuller..... mwahahahaa
As I sturt fan - I would take Gower off that list! He doesn't do anything to boost morale - just makes his teammates embarassed by the way he plays half the time!
Paul Bauer would be a better choice! They play a totally different game when he is on the court.
I'm not sure who some of these ppl are....it might be valuable if nominations included a spiel about the player?
Dallas Quigley from north, does the little things that make his team mates better, always makes the extra pass. def put reggie in there. Also crusher gives huge leadership for the young bucks at west.
matt atkins
paul vanderbergh
centrals boys. even if its not workin at the mo, they're still workin hard for the team and doing all they can to inspire the obviously uninspired.
All the Bowley Girls
ppft thats not courage, thats just whinging.
I think Dave Bowley
This guy grew up in a house of girls that all played div 1, did SASI, all played state, brought home state championship trophys, now all playing national league. Girls girls girls, all choking up the trophy cabinet, smiling in the paper, etc etc. Meanwhile this guy played div 5 at sturt, on cold lonely nights in empty stadiums, moved to tigers and played div 3 i think, but kept quietly plugging away, for the love of the game. Now finds himself an integral part of an ABL side, and despite the problems with his hips or knees or whatever, will be the first person to throw himself on the floor to rescue a loose ball, the first to defend teammates, and yeah probably the first to punch someone but hell, the boys got passion.
I think that's pretty good.
(Mod: I can see a book deal coming Dave's way with a story like that.)
