OUT : Circa 2006 Lynch, B Jones, Armstrong.
Our current team looks listless by comparison to the 06 version.

You need to keep in mind players struggling currently would excel with the 2006 midfield. With that in mind...I will answer the question in a reverse way.

Will get back to you when I have time to look properly at this . But Gaff over Mainy ? are you 16 ? That is so pathetic I feel sick!You need to keep in mind players struggling currently would excel with the 2006 midfield. With that in mind...
You'd drop 2006 Brett Jones? Was an excellent player.

A lot of those valuable role players in the '06 side (that underperformed in only winning 1 flag, though there were other distractions) could be upgraded with current players IMO.
Hunter in front of Jako ? Jaysus.You need to keep in mind players struggling currently would excel with the 2006 midfield. With that in mind...

Jako Darling, I know Peter Matera won the Norm Smith but I have said this for the past 25 years, Evans turned that game for the Eagles, from about 10 minutes to half time. In general, not in the calibre of Matera, Judd, Cousins, Kerr et al, but would turn games when they had to be turned. Was known as a finals specialist.

Jobby is definitely someone young fans should look up,hard as nails and could do the extraordinaryEvans was great, especially in the biggest games, but the move of Heady to the guts (coming off a hammy no less) was the move that turned that GF. Roo got the Norm Smith for his outstanding finals series and his amazing goal tally in the game from a wing but Heady to the guts was a Malthouse master stroke in that game.![]()
That post was comparing against the 2006 side, not all time eagles best side.Will get back to you when I have time to look properly at this . But Gaff over Mainy ? are you 16 ? That is so pathetic I feel sick!
No one could block like Rowan Jones though.You need to keep in mind players struggling currently would excel with the 2006 midfield. With that in mind...

Funny when he calls you out for "being 16" whilst showing the attention level of a 16yr old by not even following what was going on.Um...wut.

Great captain and leader . Could you be a Great Captain without being a leader
