Not sure where you're going with this but no I don't think there will be a player who weighs over 100 kgs and at 199 cm runs like the wind , is cat like when the ball hits the ground, baulks past players at ease ,. Spins in tackles all the while dishing off handpasses to teammates , does the hard running up the field , doesn't mind tacking a bounce or two at full tilt, unloading on one step from 70m from any angle , kicking all sorts of goals from any area of the Frwd half of the field and most importantly not shying away from doing the hard yards like tackling, chasing or getting to the loose ball before most others!!! The kitbag is full mate.
Yeah, it's the natural progression. In due course people will look back and question whether Franklin could have cut it going against Full Backs and Center Half Backs that are 205cm+ and super athletic. Just like Dunstall, Lockett and co are far too short to play key position in todays game.KPF's have been getting taller and taller, we'll almost certainly see a player who's taller and more athletic than Franklin at some point.

Human evolution suggets that we will see a player more athletic, taller and with better skills. in saying that none of current crop of youngsters have the buddy factor as far I can see.KPF's have been getting taller and taller, we'll almost certainly see a player who's taller and more athletic than Franklin at some point.

Without looking at his stats, I feel like 2017 was the year where he was at the high level just about every week. Since then he's been a bit up and down during the HA season but obviously at his best at the pointy end. Not sure whether that's him saving himself or whether it just isn't possible to hit those highs all the time.
Winning a 4th NS would be insane.
Wait, someone is aruging that Gunston was more important in finals?
Buddy was double and triple teamed whereas Gunston never saw a double team in those GF's. Unbelievable. You do your argument no favours by trotting out stupid comments like Gunston > Buddy.

Buddy got a lot of grief for his partying ways early in his career, but he's now at 300+ career games, and a chance at 350+ by the time he's done. The longevity and consistency of performance over that time can't be discounted. There's a good chance that when he's done only a handful of key positoin players would have played more games, Madden, Goodes, Pav, Fletcher, and Roos2016 / 2017 Daniher looked like he might have 'it', had all the physical tools required but just didn't make it to be anything special.
For all the criticism of Buddy, he's actually worked very hard to be as good as he is. There's guys with the raw potential that won't make the most of it.
try explaining this ridiculousness to the Hawks faithfull,nah nah,Roughead n Gunston n Mitchell n Hodge were better i guess the grapes are still sourWait, someone is aruging that Gunston was more important in finals?

Hudson closer to Dunstall. Clinical in how they played. Lead, mark, goal. Lead, mark, goal. But would handball or kick to a teammate if they didnt think they would kick it.
Unlike Lloyd who would always take the shot. He cost Essendon as many games as he won them. The talk always was that his contract was heavily linked to his goals which is why he never looked for a teammate in a better position. At least that would be a better explanation than him just being a selfish flog.
Also the fact that if you break down how he played in his early days at the Hawks was different to how he played in his last few years at the Hawks, which was again different to how he played at the Swans.Split buddys career in two. First half at hawks second half at swans
Hawks : 182 games, 580 goals , 2 x coleman 4 x all australian
Sydney : 136 games, 415 goals and counting , 2 x coleman , 4 x all australian
That’s two half’s of a career that both are individually hall of fame careers.
Remarkable
And not just see out his contract, if he plays even half of next year, there's a pretty strong case to be made that he should go around again (if he wants to). I'd certainly keep him around for another year, because even if he only played half a dozen games, he has the class, skills, and smarts for it to potentially make a big difference to our season.A joy to watch.
He is all time, such a special player. I never thought he would see out his contract at Sydney, his longevity is incredible

Lloyd actually had a better goal conversion rate than Dunstall and 0.2% below Hudson.
With the quality of balls, boots and the fields always improving, not to mention it being an actual profession, the accuracy should improve massively over time.
Are you sure?....This era is all about the “striker” the guy who floats between midfield & forward....Look how successful Dusty has been at hitting the scoreboard, Ablett would of been streets ahead of anyone going around in that space...The guy was regularly kicking between 60-90 goals in the 80’s as a wingman/HF!If Ablett played in this era he is kicking a lot fewer goals.
