nicest Storm player
Just thought I might start a topic on who is the nicest of the Storm players. All of them seem really nice and I would like to go for Kaufusi because he is my favourite but I would have to say matt barlett after meeting him at the state of origin function. Smith Samau is great to

This is going to be a hard one.....
But I know of one player that has given his player jersey to supporters after milestone games all the time.
Bell did it last year (which made the media) but one player does it behind the scene time and time again but never once has asked for anything for doing it. He also goes out of his way to spend time with any child that comes up to him after a game. Some times to the annoyance of his family members.
This is going to be in the eye of the beholder I think and most people will know who I would say.

i'll also add kingy as he's good for a laugh. GT because after we seen him at the footy he came and spoke to us at the game even tho he could have kept walking and pretended he didnt know us and Cooper baby even tho I was too chicken **** (and spechless) to talk to him my friend spoke on my behalf and he was really cool, damn i'm going to end up with the whole list soon.
Rusty, Boofa, Kearns & Robbo.

For me, it'd be a dead heat between Kirk Reynoldson and Matt Geyer.
Kirk was just brilliant for the game, and a great Storm ambassador. He would hang around on the park for a long time after everyone else had left (which was considerable, don't get me wrong), and would chat to anyone - he was always genuinely interested in what people had to say. And I won't soon forget his gesture of bus-ing a heap of his hometown crowd to a Storm-Broncos trial game in Toowoomba.
And I'll never forget sitting up with Matty and his family at Penrith Stadium (when he was out injured)... of course it helps if your dad and his dad work together, but it was such a nice thing for him to offer, and he was genuinely humbled at how highly he was regarded as a player.
But I haven't really had any bad experiences with any players.
On a side note, the nicest non-Stormer I've met would be Petero Civoniceva - top bloke, even if you're all decked out in Storm gear and the Storm have just thrashed the Broncos!

My vote goes to Aaron Moule. A few years ago when the Storm had the family fun day near the Yarra river (where Birrarung Marr is now situated), I went down there with my two staffordshire bull terriers and I just remember seeing Aaron Moule playing and patting them. He even forced Mitchell Sargent to take a few happy snaps with his camcorder. Of course, my two staffys were lapping it all up and loving all the attention.
Hopefully in the future, Storm will take the family fun day back to the Yarra or any other central, open parkland.
