  1. Altum Volantes

    Moved Thread Which club is Paul Roos most associated with?

    Fitzroy as a player but Sydney for the last 30 years… Great player in his day - I mean he never saw an opposition forward to save his life but he was very good across half back.

    WCE 1992 vs Carlton 95 vs Crows 97 vs Bombers 2000 vs Lions 2001 vs Cats 2007 vs Hawks 2013 vs Tigers 2019 - Knockout Finals

    Carlton 95 was the best I think within 1 season. But nice respect to WCE of 1992 - every player in that team played at least 100 AFL/VFL games in their career, no scrubs in that line up.

    Moved Thread Dunstall vs Lockett vs Carey vs Ablett vs Lloyd vs Franklin vs J Brown - Who is the most Elite of them all?

    Just the better player. St Kilda would have still been underachievers with Dunstall I am sure - just like they were with Lockett. It’s St Kilda.

    Moved Thread Dunstall vs Lockett vs Carey vs Ablett vs Lloyd vs Franklin vs J Brown - Who is the most Elite of them all?

    Dunstall was a better player than Lockett, I’ll die on that hill.

    Cheer up Jack. ☺️

    Moved Thread Brad Ottens - is he remembered as a Tiger or Cat?

    Decent player but always over rated. Never lived up to being a star at Richmond and became a ‘Top 15’ in a good side kind of guy at Geelong. So to answer your question….Geemond.

    Who is the best young key forward in the league (25 or younger at the end of this year)?

    Aaron Naughton on exposed form - has all the tools. Keen to see a bit more of the King boys. Fair call earlier on Boyd and Patton - ‘generational’ can’t-miss Pick 1 SUPERSTARS. Even Charlie Dixon - finally playing his best footy...turning 30 next month.

    Best grand final of the millennium so far?

    Favourite non-WCE finals would be 2002, 2009 and 2010 Draw. From a ‘suffering of others’ POV, it’d be 2003.

    Fitzroy circa 1996 versus this current day Carlton team

    That Fitzroy team was worse, no real question for me - just the last remnants of a dying club. Brad Boyd was their best player and he was a good honest player. Chris Johnson, Jarrod Malloy and Matt Primus were talented but basically rookies.

    Moved Thread The official Roo, Pav, Brown ranking...

    Same as you. Riewoldt just a slightly better player than Pav - then some daylight - and then Brown.

    Who'll finish 5th?

    I think I'd rather finish 5th and dispatch one of the ordinary sides thats going to be 8th this year in the first week rather than role up to a rabid Collingwood at the G on week 1... That said I'd take ANY finals!

    In 10 years time how will you remember aker?

    crutch goals?! I hope you mean 'clutch' and not 'crotch'

    Season 09 - Tarrant or Glass

    Glass, the guys been a rock and is a better player than Tarrant.

    2008 AA Ruckman

    You've ranked those out of the 4 under discussion yeah? Done the other guys?

    2008 AA Ruckman

    Jolly's stats count towards Dean Cox because Cox still legally owns Jolly on account of the 06 GF. ;)

    2008 AA Ruckman

    Most of the media rate Hille higher than Cox?...

    2008 AA Ruckman

    If Hille gets the nom over Cox it will be because Cox is a victim of his own very high standards..

    All Australian Full back

    It already lost a large amount of its dignity when they insisted on doing the annual 'force Matthew Pavlich into the team no matter what' routine at the expense of a deserving full back.

    Capper v Modra

    I still love the soccer goal against Richmond at 5:54 on that youtube highlights vid, some may claim that was a fluke, but I reckon Mods knew what he was doing! :thumbsu:;)

    Glenn Archer - Overrated?

    I don't really see the relevance of John Worsfold here, you'd struggle to find an Eagles fan (or anyone) who considers him to be comparable to the dead set champions of his era. Being a hard man doesn't make you an out and out champion like what Glenn Archer is constantly portrayed, he's a...

    Capper v Modra

    A reminder of how good Tony Modra was in his prime - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cN5zpWzuWRg&NR=1 So many fantastic marks but the goals are something else too. Especially the soccer goals, I've never seen a player better at using his soccer skills, just outstanding, he has no business...

    Glenn Archer - Overrated?

    He's a highly romanticised player, let's put it that way.

    Freagles

    Freagles are an abomination. More than likely deranged middle aged women or pathetic fence sitters who eat that sweet corn and pea mix that you can buy.

    Eade, Roos and Worsfold. Who would you want coaching your side?

    It's funny isn't it, I remember not that long ago (ie during the 2006 finals series) that it was commonly spouted that we didn't have a forward line, and hell I can recall people up in arms at the suggestion we had a top 5 defense too. The beard strokers were certain midfielders are dime a dozen...

    Eagles midfield v Freos midfield

    you do know you're just Ripper's bunny don't you Embers? The guy has been doing this for years, he doesn't care if you 'prove him wrong' in some lame poll. He continuly gets you hook, line and sinker.

    B. Cousins V S. Crawford

    It's hard not to be bias with such favourite sons I think. Gotta say Benny, but both are quite even. Matter of preference I think.

    Who is the best ruckman?

    :rolleyes: but nobody else is arguably the best around. Why bother putting every good ruckmen in a poll for the BEST ruckman? Why not just pick out the BEST of the bunch? Does this site always need to have someone from everyones team in a poll so that everyone feels better and can give...
