[thunder_15]

alex brown. never seems to amaze me with his wrap checks. but he doesnt do as much nemore cause he got told off

[Warriors26]

bad thing to have as your BEST ATTRIBUTE but one i can think of that i play with is james inge also when playing box Blue Devil has a nice little hook that he throws

The rap check is really something we need to encourage more of.

The best and most effective wrap check I've seen (and been raped with more than once in the heat of battle) would be Cam Mac from Surrey Park. Only a little guy, but he knows how to throw them.

its for people that can play defence and it is a last resort as they are geting burnt

[whistleblower]

If you ever want to see the best one ever...get the 1994 World games highlight video of USA vs AUS in the rain, when Mango is running down the sideline and Tony Million produces the most amazing WRAP check in the history of the game!!!!

Well worth a look!

[pumba]

Tony or Mark whistleblower?

I think I remember that check. If it is the one I'm thinking of, Mango's stick does about 6 rotations and goes about 5 meters in the air (excuse the exaggeration). The check was an all or nothing check because Million actually turns his back on Mango to do the check.

[whistleblower]

It was Tony - I doubt it would be on a link..unless Eddie Toomey uploaded it to the net. 1994 boys long time ago fellas before the cascade!

Was '94 still the era of the famed Bacharach helmet or had you moved on to the snazzy new buckets from Sports Helmet?

I think in '94 i was still sporting a little cooper helmet.

[whistleblower]

94 - The Aussie Team wore the Sport Helmet

Nothing wrong with a Cooper Helmet unless some hit you in the back of the head or on the ears! It did work for Newy!
Very few young kids would not what the Cooper was these days!

Sam Bullock, always seems to get away with that bloody wrap check!

[aussielax]

Travis Gathercole used to pull out some pretty nuts wrap checks.

[shortfuse]

I remember the footage of that one whistleblower, it was a ripper.

Pumba, were you even alive when that game was played? Hows the training coming along?

Still does. Played against him this year up in Vancouver.

Did Eddie Toomey film any of the England games in 1994?.

I'd love to get the England v USA game when England were 1-0 up only for the england goalie to score an own goal from 20yds to make it 1-1.

As for wrap checks

Alex Brown hands down, he throws it insanely and always hits stick, but yes was told off for it and now hardly does it anymore

joshy mullens....
yeoww

[fogolax03]

i was there in manchester when tony { dueschbag millon } threw that check. we had just called a time out so mango slowed down and millon saw it as a perfect time to take a cheap shot. as for the best wrap check, anyone who saw subiacos robin cornish throw one when he just got back from carolina would agree he was pretty aggressive.

[cannon]

...fogo i remember watching some tape of Robin playing for Carolina V. Towson in i think 95?? He gets on the field in the first qtr throws a shot from the restraining line and is not see again for the whole game. Classic.

1991 Final at the Carrier Dome. Shoots it straight at Betchers stick! Fogo is right though, he did have a hell of a wrap check.

Robin was actually on the wrong end of one of the best wraps I ever saw...Gary Gait with what u might describe as a "Reverse" wrap check in 1994. Sent Robs stick spinnning.

[absent lax]

i'd put my money on cam mac from surrey aswell, playing div 2 with him in his hiatus year was brilliant he loved the wrap check in open field play.
it's a dieing art.
