This really is just a race for second place, which I'm guessing Wortho is probably leading.
But no one is catching Redhage.

Redhage, Worthington Anstey Wilkinson and Heal. The old school guys mentioned above, I actually liked them all had character, unlike todays easily hated.

Andrew Parkinson from the Magic!

Great work LC, but Flophage is the benchmark

Oscar Forman hahahhahahaha just kidding, he's too handsome.

Heal .......daylight.....

There was that dick that played for the Tigers back in the 90's. Don't remember his name but he basically had no role in the team except to start fights with opposition players.

Andrew Gaze, Larry Sengstock, Leonard Copeland, Redhage and Simon Kerle

Gaze was a good player, but the whinging he did when I followed the supercats back in the 90's (along with his dad).

Leonard Copeland cos everytime we looked like beating the Tigers he'd hit consecutive 3's and that was game over.

Redhage, he holds, he uses his elbows and comes across as a thug. Good player though but after what I witnessed in the SEABL when he played for the Thunder, he gets away with everything.

Simon Kerle, a show off in supercats era, and also when he moved onto Brisbane.

Heal, Anstey, Hodge, Kerle

"There was that dick that played for the Tigers back in the 90's. Don't remember his name but he basically had no role in the team except to start fights with opposition players."

I'm gonna guess you're talking about Ray Gordon

Players we love to hate. League needs them and other than Redhage and Wortho not sure we have any more now !!

Lindsay Tait or Dusty Rychart, I can't remember now, but one of those guys was a serial flopper.

Seems to me the better a player is, the more opposition fans hate on them...

Grant Kruger was the ultimate hate target in the early 90's.

Bradtke when he played at the Powerhouse.

Paul Rees when he stepped on point guards...

As much as i like to bring up "old" players, I have to give this to Redhage,

Does anyone even vaguely allude to him as an Australian boomer ? It seems that we are all just a little ashamed as having him once been a representative of this country and wish to just make out he was never there.

Which apparently is exactly how Floparge and his fans wants it to be, as the only mention of his proud Australian honour is how it caused his Puerto Rican team to miss out on a local title because of his absence for "boomers try-outs", no mention of his actual selection and attendance at the olympics for Australia.

really says it all in respect his place in Australian basketball. In 10 years he will be a bit of forgotten history I suspect.

Redhage, like watching the neighborhood bully blowing his nose for half an hour.

As a Perth fan and with all this Redhage talk.. Wortho

Very Old, you can hate his on court persona as much as you want but questioning his character and standing in basketball in the past decade says more about you than him. Shit, we rag on people for putting their pro careers ahead of their country but know you're saying he should have done the opposite?

The reason his Boomer gig didn't go as well as we could have hoped is because Goorjian insisted on giving Sav the minutes that he could have taken, despite Redhage completely out-performing him in games leading up to the Olympics.

These thread really needs to be split in to two categories - players that are hated because the fans of opposing teams got sick and tired of seeing that player kick their teams arse (like Very Old has just shown) and players who are hated because they bring nothing to the court except dirty play...the Tyson Demos award.

Redhage
Wagstaff
Martin

Pretty much Perth!

Martin?

Would not have guessed his name would come up in this thread.

Are these Sixers fans still not over the 2013 GF loss?

*2014

Redhage just as much for his moronic support from the Cats fans... and Heal from the past, someone said it, the worse the player the harder they were to hate. Kruger was funny hateable, Ray Gordon was hilarious with his celebrations... even though it was all Gaze and Copes!

The Goorj has gotta be one of the most hated Coaches. What a twat! And everyone loved to have a go at Seamus McPeake. So he'd be the most hated owner. What a donkey.

As a 36ers fan we love him but how do other fans feel about Anthony Petrie? He loves a good tussle. If anything happens on the court while he's benched he's like a mad dog on a short leash.

Funny how most of these players that people see as a bit rough on court are actually good blokes off it. I've heard good things of Redhage as a person, but as a player you could throttle him.

Redhage is a dirty player and flopper. If he played dirty and took hits back I think there'd be less hate for him.

But he chooses to then flop like a little child and cry to every ref all night long.

I'm finding Gibbo is doing the same this year, playing for calls and crying, rather than playing the Game straight up.

"Redhage just as much for his moronic support from the Cats fans... "

No one cares that you hate him. But supporting him is less moronic that making stuff about him being so dirty and crying to the refs all night.

The thread is about players you hate so YES people do care. Your sensitive ass just doesn't like Floppage being called out.

He IS dirty and he IS a flopper. Only deluded Perth fans think otherwise.

Redhage!

I see people here still haven't got over the 2014 GF.

If you hate Redhage, then you must surely hate Rhys Carter for punching Redhage, or Gibbo for bowling him over.

Its laughable that the 'most knowledgable fans' love to accuse others of being salty, yet all the while wading in Sodium Chloride for the pass 2 seasons.

"If you hate Redhage, then you must surely hate Rhys Carter for punching Redhage"

How does that follow?
If I hated Redhage, I'd probably like Carter for punching him :p

Nobody who's watched more than a couple of seasons of NBL, and seen some of the great wankers, could have any reason to nominate players like Martin and Wagstaff. That would be like me nominating Maher just because he played for Adelaide.
Even Redhage. I get that some people think he plays for frees too much, but he only gets elevated to the "hate" category because of his long-running success and his support amongst Cats fans. But seriously why WOULDN'T we support a 300 game championship winning player?
Again, that would be like me hating on Andrew Gaze.

So basically we need to change the title of this thread to:
"What team are 6's fans most jealous and envious of?"
Answer: Perf, cos thay suk.

End of thread.

Anon, why does it bother me if you hate someone? I dislike plenty of players myself so it's be expected that people dislike guys from my team. We all have our reasons, some guys you just dislike for unexplainable reasons. It bothers me that people invent stuff to justify their irrational hatred.

I define dirty as someone doing thug acts (Demos, Hinder, Wortho when he is losing) and not someone who gets under his opponents skin with a hold and bump here and there. He is also nowhere near the worst complainer in the league.

No one said he wasn't a flopper either so not sure the relevancy of your comment there.
