Judd- need i say more
Kerr- looks as though he was born with footy in hand
Hurn- Has some very Judd-like qualities, gifted sportsman.
Sampi is sooo over-rated, lovett, betts (obviously), and neon far better

I think Nicoski is more naturally talented than Kerr. Obviously Kerr is the better player, but i think it's due to the work he put in. Just my opinion
Cannot believe no Richmond fan has mentioned Richo. He has head issues but easily the most naturally gifted player at the tigers.
The last 2 spots would be between Tambling, Brown and Deledio.

Wirra- silky smooth skill
Judd- What needs to be said?
Kerr- Not just hard at it but great split-second skills.
Sure we can only name 3?

Brown Deledio Richardson.
I like that better. At least there is 3 footballers there now.
Bartel and Chapman are not 'naturally talented', they're hard at it work horses who have a big impact on games not through moments of brilliance but through consistent high level performances.
I'd have the Ablett boys, SJ, Varcoe and Wojcinski and Stokes to a lesser degree as our 'naturally talented' players (probably in that order IMO).

You are completely and utterly wrong !!!
Smith = One of the most overated payers ever to done the brown and gold...
2 time All-Australian. If you think that the guy wasn't at one point an elite footballer, you are a fool. As he is still on our list and this thread asks about those that are naturally talented, he qualifies.
Probably at 4, 5 & 6.
You want Natural Talent? Go take a look a Clayton Collard play football, The kid oozes talent...Well you all WILL get a glimpse on Friday night.
Headland
Hasleby
All time at Freo.
Clem Michael, what could have been

Ottens is not naturally talented IMO.
One that many cat supporters are leaving out is J. Selwood. He has serious natural ability. I also agree with the above top 3.
Most Naturally talented players
Luke Hodge
Jordan Lewis
Mark Williams
Most Naturally talented athletes
Crawford
Franklin
Croad

I dare you to start a thread on that.
Why, who you think is more of a natural athlete at Hawthorn?
Lol, no i wasn't having a go at your selections, but we've had a thread on everything else, so why not?

I think a lot of people are getting mixed up with what 'naturally talented' is. Fletcher is naturally talented? He is a champion, the most underrated fullback, THE best full back in the last 10 years, easily. But he isn't naturally talented. He is very talented with majority aspects of a players game. But isnt in the top 3 most naturally talented players in Essendon.
That was just an example, I wasnt singling out Essendon.
My answers in regards to Collingwood's most naturally talented players;
Buckley; Doesn't/never did have that 'showpony' flair of a Didak, but definitely more naturally talented then anyone at CFC.
Didak; It'd be quite stereotypical to say this, but I think its partially true, you'd say that his Croatian background gives him that soccer-ish talent where he is magical with the footy. He is a freak. Very naturally talented.
Davis; This guy can do anything with the footy. He is one of the most accurate kicks of the football at Collingwood and has been in the AFL well over 5-6 years yet never ceases to amaze us Magpie faithful. Like some others named on this thread, isnt the best OVERALL player, but does have great natural talent.
Other honourable mentions;
Chris Egan, Scott Pendlebury, Heath Shaw (maybe?), Dale Thomas
