The problem is who do you leave out of this lineup for Mackie?

B: Stewart Lonergan Scarlett
HB: Milburn Taylor Enright

That group is pretty unbelievable really. We really have been blessed with some incredible defenders over the last two decades.
We have actually been blessed with some incredible defenders over 6 decades.
Especially HBFs.
 
B: Stewart Scarlett Milburn
HB: Enright Taylor Mackie
C: Corey Selwood (c) J.kelly
HF: Riccardi Mooney Bartel
F: Chapman Hawkins Johnson
R: Ottens Dangerfield Ablett
I: Stokes Ling (vc) Duncan Lonergan
E: King Wojcinski Harley T.kelly

Burns and Graham better before this century. Wanted to pick Sanderson over TK for final E, but needed another mid.

How many good defenders have we had!?

Stokes and mackie just no. Stokes wasnt even good enough to play in the 2009 gf and his 2008 appearance is one of the all time shockers. Burns, riccardi and motlop are levels above stokes.

Stokes was a huge part of our gameplan back when we were good and any player then will tell you the same.

His non-stop gut running was crucial for our forward setup.

He is not near the midfield/forwardline of the best side of the past two decades. He was a bottom 5 player throughout his career albeit in a very good team.

Dangerfield, ablett, bartel, corey, selwood, j. kelly, t.kelly, s.johnson, duncan, motlop, riccardi, chapman.

He is not getting in ahead of any of them as a forward running through the midfield. This frankly is a ridiculous conversation. Am i being punked?

He's 110% in over Motlop, you're a joke for mentioning him.

Kelly was/is better but he's not making any team after 2 seasons lmfao.

How can you pick Motlop?
He’s not even best 22 at port and you think he’s in our team of the century ! Ridiculous call!

I must change my A team to include Max Rooke instead of Riccardi
Surely tom lonergan gets the full back role in atleast the b team? The guy who made franklin his bunny. The guy who stopped travis cloke dead in his track in the 11 GF after he was murdering taylor.

Also surely some of the likes of gary hocking, glenn kilpatrick, brad sholl, clint bizzell, david mensch and touhy get in ahead of the likes of shannon byrnes, Prismall, menegola and bews. Dont think we need blake either as mumford is good enough on his own. He carried our ruck division in the 2009 season when blake proved useless without ottens around.

Motlop who has come second in the best and fariest in 2015. Stokes not even close. In 2013 motlop before he injured himself late in the season was looking a cert for the all australian. Stokes never elevated himself from a bottom 6 player in the starting side let alone even get close to being thought about in that company. Motlop is two classes above.

And why does kelly not make a team in two seasons?

Were all those guys still playing in the 2000s?
