David Mossop My word this man is deserved to be in the cult team. Sure he has not been at the club as long as others in the list but he has paid his dues. As a skinny young boy he joined the club at under 15s possibly even 17s and progressed through to the skinny older man he is today. While not many realise the Moose has played a match in State League One - capitalising on injuries the opportunist jumped at the chance. This made him the only offical West side gangster to ever get a guernsey in the Borough's ones... If that is not worthy of a cult hero status then by george mirecki i don't know what is... Today the man is injury plagued but remains a stalwart of the pennant sides, if one is lucky enough it is possible to see him skulking around the edges of PLenty Park on a Thursday night... not Tuesday - it's past his bedtime Last reply 23 Jun 2008

• Dootch:   it explains why moose is never at training or at functions, he is taking her for a drink on Monday Tuesday and makin luv by wednesday and on thursdy friday saturday then of course chillin on sunday... how did the man ever fit any games in? 23 Jun 2008

• MickTower:   What's also impressive about this young man is his ability to mix hockey with a successful music career under the stage name of 'Craig David'. I believe the song 'Slicker than your average' was actually inspired by the hockey side of things. Was also a late inclusion into the Cult Heroes team, expect a quick rise to the top of this list - Watson & Pain, watch-out, Craig David is not Walking Away! 22 Jun 2008

• Dootch:   Sorry moose didn;t realise you were old school Partingtons GHC I thoguht you were a late inclusion! Either way you are still my neezy fo sheezy 20 Jun 2008

• Moose:   Cheers Timmy D. Just to clear it up, i did run around in GHC minkey and Under 9s @ Partingtons back in the day. My signature move these days is Dencorubbing the hammies though 19 Jun 2008

David Patterson Ok so I never saw his old man play but this kid bled green and white when he used to play... any man who can have a cigarette for a warm up, come of fthe ground at halftime red as a beetroot, throw up during the team talk, then play the rest of the game before lighting a cigarette up immediately post match is worthy of cult status... I am still not sure I believe it and I was there! Posted 19 Jun 2008

Robert Zull how could you not Champion the Gum Tree.? If you have ever seen him lumber down the field you will have witnessed poetry in motion... The guy can make it from attacking corners to defensive corners in three steps.... magic. P.S. He likes to be called Gum Tree Last reply 2 Jun 2008

• Dootch:   If only we could all peak in under 11s Gum Tree, the world would be a better place... 2 Jun 2008

• Fastest Bloke in Australia:   Thanks for the wrap Dootch. I am very humbled that such a flattering comment has some from the best under 11 hockey player ever to have set foot on a junior hockey field on a Saturday morning. Never will there be a player like it. 31 May 2008
