Melbourne Demons have only had one players in their entire history (Neitz) reach 300, so that can be a misleading stat

I actually don't like the whole 'shorten careers' thing - it makes the prospect of playing for/ staying at West Coast sound less attractive for non-WA guys.Apologies to David Mundy. Two players with 300+
And as far as it can be a misleading stat ... who cares if it is? I just wanna stick it up the Vics!
Anything to try to show them how it is still just a VFL+ it is not a true national comp.
I don't mind referring to 'interstate teams'. There are 16 of them, after all.I actually don't like the whole 'shorten careers' thing - it makes the prospect of playing for/ staying at West Coast sound less attractive for non-WA guys.
The fact that we don't have any 300 gamers - yet - is irrelevant. It's pretty rare, and as above, teams like Melbourne only have 1 over a hundred odd years. Freo already have more. It's likely 1 or more of Hurn, Gaff or Darling will get there for us.
But I'm on totally onboard complaining about the misuse of 'interstate teams'
We have two, Mitchell and Petrie...I actually don't like the whole 'shorten careers' thing - it makes the prospect of playing for/ staying at West Coast sound less attractive for non-WA guys.

And therefore 4 brownlow medalists...We have two, Mitchell and Petrie...
Including one dual Brownlow medallist.And therefore 4 brownlow medalists...
5 (Glendinning)And therefore 4 brownlow medalists...
Shuey a massive chance to get there as well imo.I actually don't like the whole 'shorten careers' thing - it makes the prospect of playing for/ staying at West Coast sound less attractive for non-WA guys.

Vic media going instantly nuts about Rioli. They only cover WC when something bad has happened.
I think Hurn and Gaff are the most likely. Gaff if he doesn't leave. I still worry about Darling's feet.Player Games (W-D-L) Age
Hurn, Shannon 268 (159-1-108) 32y 1d
Kennedy, Josh 220 (125-1-94) 32y 11d
Masten, Chris 214 (122-1-91) 30y 126d
Shuey, Luke 200 (128-1-71) 29y 95d
Gaff, Andrew 196 (123-1-72) 27y 81d
Darling, Jack 195 (125-1-69) 27y 84d
If Hurn doesn't get it then Gaff or Darling are next best placed to crack 300 IMO
Shuey's body won't hold up
Wonder if that one got changed last minuteOn AFL360 tonight: most at stake - Robbo " West Coast the reigning premiers getting knocked out".
Call me crazy, but I would've thought the side who finished on top going out in straight sets and being beaten by the 5th place side would be a bigger a bigger story.
Slightly derailed, but it's been that kind of a day & this got me thinking...Eagle careers are shorter but sweeter.
Just look at our "best 22 to never win a flag"
Not too many big names in there going their careers without success.

The ching ching sound is the Norm smith and premiership medallion slapping together. Nic Nat posted a tweet about the matter.
