Game Day 1st Elimination Final: West Coast Vs Essendon

[Dazzler9]

Suma probably the best-performed full-forward in Grand Finals in the AFL era

This is probably correct actually. If memory serves he kicked 6 goals in 92 and 2 in 94, and somewhere between 4-6 in 91. So overall 12+ goals. Only Ablett would match that if you allow the 89 VFL granny to count.

Edit: Not sure how many Franklin has kicked.

I remember back in the day when people used to complain if Suma only got 3 goals in a game.
