Lethal was the GOAT in the pre-professional footballer era - that's why the MVP is the Leith Matthews Trophy recipient
300 games 900 goals as a midfielder resting in the forward pocket
Great captain and leader - made others better
And i'm not a Hawks fan. My old man (over 70) will say the 3 freakiest players/matchwinners he saw were Polly Farmer, Lethal and Gazza Sr.
I never saw him but your dad is clearly wrong - cos Matthews didn't win any of the awards that didn't exist and those 900 goals from the midfield were easy
