* CAMERON 'THE STICK' WOOD
Fair dinkum he's skinnier than the odds you get on Magpie victories these days. Watching him play is a bit like watching a giraffe disguised as a zebra imitating a leopard. And now that he's 'settled in, he really does look the goods.
Of course, it all makes perfect sense.
If ya gunna replace the Thin White Duke why not replace him with an even Thinner White Duke? Now that he's been given the latitude of regular senior action due to Fraser's current workers compo claim, he is delivering the much needed longitude.
So, like a one legged man at a disco, I'm gunna go out on a limb here - I reckon out of our current list he is THE player with the most upside still in him. He was Maggierific against the Crows. Like nerds at a Star Wars convention he was everywhere.
The important thing to remember is The Stick still doesn't have that much solid senior footy under his belt. Like we see now with the mercurial #4, wait til he develops a fully worked Chevvy big block.
He could be anything this bloke!
* THE LEXUSLAND FITNESS GURUS
The Pies just seem to keep coming up trumps in the ground & pound matches. Rest assured this doesn't happen by accident. A lot of credit must go to the crew who put them out on the park in such great nick. They deserve the Bart Cummings Award on Copeland night!
* P-JAC
Last week, in response to cries for Presti to be All Australian, I declared him better than that.
I foolishly claimed he was All Earth.
After watching him on Saturday night I now realise just how short sighted I was.
Presti is, in fact, All Universe!!
* THE LOOK
Forget Dolce & Cabana or Yves Saint Laverton.
When it comes to strutting & cutting edge fashion nobody gets near our very own goal scoring
chameleon, the man with three names. Yes I'm talking about The Treasurer, John Jack Anthony.
Black hair, black glove, black 'n' white stripes - he looks like a young Elvis in Kid Galahad styling & profiling out there.
Let’s face it, if Swedish songbirds Roxette had their time over again they'd be singing "HE'S got the looks"!

* HEY MICK, THINK QUICK & FIX MOBY DICK'S SICK KICKS!
And I mean sick as in the future of Australian comedy on tv.
What's going on?!?!
He used to be deadlier than a cab driver's b.o. on a double shift.
Now his kicks have about as much bite as a vegetarian vampire.
I really miss his finger waggling.

Hi Hotrod,
Do you think Harry O looks a little bit like Guy Sebastian?
By the way, I love your column. It gives me great pleasure.
Liza F (Werribee)
Well they ARE both worthy Australian Idols. But I would have said he looks more like Jimi Hendrix which, of course, makes Centre Half Back his wa wa pedal.

Dear Mr Hotrod,
Your Mr Maxwell appears to be a very popular leader.
Can you please tell me his secret?
Yours sincerly,
M. Turnbull (Canberra)
It's no secret mate, he IS a popular leader coz he leads by example.
Maybe you should try going third man up during question time.
