Weshallovercome Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Fantham was my first footy hero, a proper player, one of our all time greats. Happy birthday John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 So big question to one who saw them both - Fantham or Hirst difficult to compare fantham and hirst different sort of players .....fantham was to layne as Williams was to hirst .if pushed I'd go for the 60s duo but would be a close run thing .

Mountain Owl Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Top man is Johnny Fantham. Saw him from 1964 onwards probably not his best years as the side were on a downward slide. Was a great dribbler and crosser with a tremendous shot if given the opportunity. He put on a bit of weight in the late 60's which effected his game.
