Ahead of his 250th AFL game Fremantle’s Luke McPharlin has drawn acclaim from former players and commentators.
McPharlin earned high praise from AFL360 Wednesday night and the panel members spoke about his longevity, influence and football abilities.
Here’s what they had to say:
He’s been a role model for defenders for a number of years. If you want to learn how to play the game, want to learn where to stand in relation to where the ball is, go and watch Luke McPharlin play – David King
He is the ultimate team guy…he’s been a sensational trade for them. He terrorises full forwards with strength, pace and understanding - Mark Maclure
A good character…he is a champion full back of the AFL - Mark Robinson
He has been terrific for a long period of time for Fremantle – Gerard Whateley
