Your Swans Idols

[Alibi Monday]

Over the years, especially when you were young, who were your swans idols? The guys you loved seeing play well...counting stats at the match.

I have to say three that really stood out for me were:

John Roberts - glamour FF in 1980-81 (i think)
David Murphy
Mark Bayes

Interested to know everyone elses....

[Grant]

Gerard Healy,Mark Bayes,and Paul Kelly.

Gee wasn't Merv Neagle a class act when he came up here. I knew he was good, but I couldn't remembering him being that good at Essendon. Pity he was only around for a couple of years.

Barry Mitchell and Stevie Wright were great as well.
