Did he ever pass it to one of his teammates?
seriously, did anyone ever play on him when he played in the middle?
He never had an opponent and they allowed him to do whatever he pleased.
Probably Luke Hodge?who would be the closest thing to matthews now?

Nathan Fyfe. Brilliant overhead, can play anywhere, kicks goals, elite extractor.
Yeh, and he's a different shape. Matthews was probably more of a Chapman/Pickett/Lewis (from a few years ago) kind of shape and by the looks of things played to match.Nathan Fyfe is athletic, tall but no where near as prolific around goals as what Leigh was.

Vickery punch on Dean Cox the closest I can think of.
In terms of football ability though, Vickery not in ball park with Lethal Leigh.
Maybe a cross between Gary Ablett jnr and Selwood in terms of nous and ability to play the game.

Need someone with serious marking ability as well.
Given Gazza's Dad had exactly that, I feel sure if Gazza junior plays as a regular forward in his twilight years as Lethal Leigh did that you would see his marking ability would be at least as good as Leigh Matthews. The apple has not fallen far from the tree with Gazza junior so no reason to not expect he would be a strong mark for his size.
