    my all time favourite, from when I was a teenager and first started watching regularly was Dick Hewitt. There have been loads of better players before and after but he is and will remain my all time favourite.

    I did not see a lot of Glavin and the stars of the 1980s as I was playing local league footy most Saturdays.

    So tempting to say Ronnie and any four others.

    But being sensible, and though it’s difficult to pick five from some great players, I have to say

    Ronnie
    Redders
    Adam Hammill
    Macca
    Mick Butler

    I cannot believe that there is anyone who saw Glavin play that would not include him in their fave 5!!!

    What worries me is for the first time ever I don’t have a favourite player at the start of this season.. and I can’t remember that ever being the case before.

    All time favourites…

    Neil Redfearn
    Craig Hignett
    Adam Hammill
