not in the shire anymore :(
I think this year, I've admired (in an entirely platonic, non-sexual way) Greg Bird, mainly for his maturity. It'd be easy to be a drunken bogan as a footy player, but he seems to have evolved above that.

welcome back, corey.94@live.com.au ... you're certainly persistent!

It used to be Gallen before he started doing all his grubby stuff, now hmmm, Gidley is up there, I like gritty hard workers who consistently turn up every week.

(some NSW bias may exist)

as for admire, probably
bird: matured a lot to become a top footballer
hodgson: plays consistantly well above his weight division
noddy: appears to be a genuinly nice guy who has had a rough career amist achieving everything
tongue: playing above his weight division yet consistantly gives his all and gets through a mountain of work, often one of the best on feild in a regularly disappointing team
