Given the post a few above mentions a fellow by the name of Leigh Matthews... probably not.

Could you imagine Sicily on Lockett under 80s rules? I'd measure his life expectancy minutes.

Slightly selective though. Dench, Rance, Fletcher and Scarlett never actually got to play full-forward, and especially (for the latter three) not in eras when big bags were actually kicked on a regular basis.

I reckon Ablett's hit on Gastev might have relieved him of those memories largely care of relieving him of all memories between 1988 and 1993

Have to admit, that made me squirm a little. Not ha ha squirm either.

Matthews might just about be the only bloke able to make KB give a handball

Nearly 100 goals to Daicos in a season says otherwise

A bit of an overstatement on both fronts - never seen as a tool (though his workrate wasn't up to standard), and now he's an AA certainty, but not being seen as an all-time great. Beside anything else, though, he's now kicking over 60 sausages per year, which he wasn't doing at Carlton. He's...

Very good, yes, but no gun. He's a brilliant natural goalkicker, but isn't as good in the air as the best in the league. When he's kicking goals, he's great, but when he's not, he doesn't offer as much as other forwards in the league. In terms of who I'd have in front of him - Franklin...

Hodge? Really? I mean, Boyd offers many more future years of service, but sell out the soul of your club?

You might be overselling J Riewoldt a tad

Yeh, exactly. If it were Selwood, no way Jose. Go back a few years when it was Steven King...

Disagree with the first part. I can see how some would feel that Moloney would not get a start down at Geelong but I do feel that if he played for us then he would play, we would find a spot for him, but Shannon Byrnes may not be too impressed.

He's still a kid in a man's game, Rivers. Give him time.

Younger by two years, I think. Rumour goes that at the trade table Port offered their own first pick to us in exchange for Enright, which would have also gotten us Ottens, but Geelong preferred him to Moloney.

'79 was probably better than 2005 as far as the actual game goes but 89 was always a contest and highlighted by some great individual efforts.

6 years. By then the oldest of their no.1-5 picks will be 24, 25 years old and hitting their peak. Not before then.

Judd>Ball>Ho.... oh, hang on, I think we've done that one before... :)

Ross Lyon was actually a fairly good player for the Royboys whilst Lewis had the displeasure of playing in a few very crap teams.

Take your pick of these three - EJ 1989 GF 1970 GF Even 1966 or 1990 would do better.

He's not an all time great as in one of the top five-ten of all time. But he's probably the best midfielder of his era. He can still turn it on, though, as evidenced by his effort against us in Rd 18 or his mammoth 300th game. I wouldn't be surprised to see him also do 2006 but the smart...

Hang on, I have the PF Footy Record right in front of me now, son.... PLAYER HONOURS Brownlow Medal 1997, 1998 Best and Fairest 1992, 1994, 1997, 1998 2nd Best and Fairest 2000, 2003 3rd Best and Fairest 1990, 1993, 1996, 1999 All-Australian 1992, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2003...

Someone didn't see his preliminary final against Port Adelaide.

I think that Rodger Fox may have gotten you over the line on that one.

I voted PAFC because of their apres-GF gloating but I must admit that I'm surprised we're not leading ourselves, we do have a few shockers (not that I'm going to name names!)

Yeh, that's my opinion too. It'll be interesting to see what happens when Harvey moves on (and now that Graham's moved on!) and whether Ackland can become a decent ruckman. Basically, I think that the first to fill those holes (ie a Harvey-shaped hole in the Midfield, or a Tredrea-shaped hole...
