Agreed with a few of yours there Weiry. I used to hate Wally but credit where credit is due.

I should have thrown Shane Gould in there but that would have made eleven.

^^Pat rafter

ok - but in No order mate ....

1. Adam Gilchrist ..... made it watchable at anytime and any place - human wrecking ball
2. Dougie Walters ..... it is what it is - a farking aussie legend
3. Tie for Stephen Michael & Maurice Rioli ..... finest most remarkable indigenous players I ever saw and probably ever will
4. Peter Sterling .... farking sneaky little cockroach genious
5. Pat Cash ..... fark my hair stood up watching that Wimbledon year
6. Kostya Tszyu ..... yeah well I'm claiming the little hardarse as Aussie & I farken love the little champion
7. Tommy Raudonikis .... see Dougie up there
8. Mick Petersen .... RIP mate too young to leave us
9. Ron "the Duck" Goddard .... won't find a truer aussie shaper - and because I'm a farken PIMP
10. Peter Weir .... got a farken heart as big as a footy the courageous bastard - even if he is a slack arsed mole

..... I couldn't find room for 007.1 Aseaaaaaaa ..... "Quantum of boards" "Live & Let rip" & "Smellyfinger" ..... wanted to select chrispy but he'd smash me for glitterising him

Hard to get to 10 for me
in no particular order

1. Keith Miller - never saw him play but he sounds like a legend to me
2. Shane Warne - most blokes hero at some point or another
3. Rod Laver - 2 grand slams
4. Margaret Court - 62 Slam titles
5. John Eales - This fella pissed me off more than any other - a born winner and a nice bloke. Prick
6. Dermott Brereton - so many good quotes as well "That kick was absolutely unique, except for the one before it which was identical."
7. Adam Gilchrist - an absolute joy to watch
8. Black Caviar - can I throw her in?
