Not even a Geelong GOAT. He's not even better than 2 members of the Ablett family.

Hold on, this isn't the 'players that went on one week too long' thread..
The biggest impact he had all fame was taking out their best player cameron
So you agree? Two absolute shockers.
The real modern day greats like Voss, Ackermanis, Dusty Martin stand up when the game is there to be won.
Dangerfield vanishes too often to be a GOAT.
As the captain of the side he should have been the one to drag them over the line.

Unfortunately for him he hasn't been at his best in the truest test of all consistently (Grand Finals).

Hodgey too, went okay in September!
Downhill skiier
This thread aged well after one week.
When he has a best on ground performance against the WCE/North Melbourne next year it'll be back on the agenda. But the true believers know that he is nowhere near GOAT status. Just a good ordinary player.

2 out of 3 ain't bad, but Danger is
this isnt basketball. goal assists is a BS stat. basically every person in the chain is part of the "goal assist"
unless its some freaky Greg Williams handball that slices through 10 people and hits you on the chest; goal assist isnt a thing in AFL.

Like most of the season, players and teams played their 'grand final' against Hawthorn.
Age catches us all. There simply cannot be any other explanation for how a bloke can do what he did last week and then follow it up with THAT performance today when there is more to play for.
I'd be absolutely ropeable if I was a Geelong fan.

The real GOAT, N.Daicos, hasn't shat the bed on finals like others.
like James Hird did on many occasions

Just from that list, Carey wasn't that great in GF's, Hird in 2001 had a shocker ( granted was injured) and Ablett sn, apart from 89 performed pretty poorly (kicked 4 goals between 92,94,95). Plenty of greats have had a bad days.
Hird was a Normie in 2000. played a sublime game in the most dominant side that's ever played 12 months of football. and he played a great game in the '93 GF kicking a goal in the 3rd when Essendon needed to make a statement to Carlton's challenge. put the game out of reach, killed Carltons momentum.
in retrospect he shouldnt have played in 2001; but its a Lachie Neale situation where you roll the dice. you want your best player out there. sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
Dangerfield is of course a fantastic player. but to me he's that one tier down from the absolute greats.
