If Jack kicks more goals than Richo should he be considered better? With an extra game this season and if we go deep in finals it’s possible. Only needs 45 goals. You’d probably have to say yes.

Jack has certainly been a better team player with all his goal assists than Richo.

My late father, who took me to my first match when I was about 4 and we still played at Punt Road, used to say Jack Dyer and Roy Wright.

Alan Geddes is an interesting choice. The centreline of Geddes-Zschech-Judkins played together in 4 straight GFs (1931-34), winning 2. Along the way Judkins won a Brownlow, they racked up several state games between them, and in their day were as legendary as Bourke-Barrott-Clay. Geddes was the undoubted star of the three, and captained the club for 4 years.
Grandfather sounds like a good judge.

Barrot was an amazing talent, possibly the best of all but was sent packing for an indiscretion that cannot be tolerated at a club. I was devastated when he left. Never the same player after leaving as he was gutted at being given the bullet.

Hey can I ask the older gents on here something. Was Bartlett considered the best finals player in the VFL era or at least better than Snr?

Wow, can you say what the indiscretion was? I remember when this happened and we got Ian Stewart in exchange from the Saints. I don’t think Stewart left St Kilda on great terms either.
Recruit Zone: The trade that rocked football
In a series focusing on Richmond’s trade/draft history, we take a look at the famous Ian Stewart-Bill Barrot swap.
From the archives: Billy Barrot chats to Mal Brown
The late Richmond star Billy Barrot was a one off as a footballer as he showed in a 2004 Inside Football interview with Mal Brown. Barrot passed away today at the age of 72. The interview shows the flamboyant “Bustling Billy’s” unique approach to the game.

21 goals in the 1980 finals series says it all doesn't it?
We may make fun of Mr. Squiggle, but I tell ya, considering his modest frame I have never seen anyone throw themselves into a contest the way DB did. Sure, he was like a ragdoll and I saw him get smashed numerous times, but my god, that kid had guts just like his old man. He was simply never meant to be a footballer. But god he tried. He never worked out, but for effort alone I'll always have time for David Bourke.
