I addressed both then and now.
With regards to the money situation though you are right - that would change a whole lot and would have had a large ripple effect that we would be feeling even now. With that in mind I'm glad things have worked out the way that did, but if we are talking in isolation right now then it's clear who would be better.
Franklin did SFA in both the 2008 and 2013 Grand Finals, the only premierships he has won.
Gary Ablett senior had a similar career, great player who couldn't win Grand Finals.
