Which club puts together the best back 6 of all time? Ones that pop to mind are eagles and Carlton but would be interested to know where we rate these lineups.

Geelong would be in my opinion this lineup

Milburn Scarlett Stewart
Enright Taylor Bilcavs

West Coast

Wirrapanda Glass Worsfold
McGovern Jackovich McKenna

If it's all time Milburn and Bilcavs would be nowhere near the Geelong Team.

For Sydney from 1990 onwards i'll go for.

Gotta have Bernie Smith in any All-Time best back 6 for Geelong imo.
Blicavs not really a HBF either …

I think your best and fairest winning premiership captain coach who has a stand named after him at Kardinia Park might squeeze in in front of Milburn....

Geelong Football Club has been around for over 160 years and your all time back 6 only has players from the past 20 years.
definitley our most successful period in the last 60-80 years though and of course im biased in the fact ive seen these players.

For Swans, if it's an all time back six john Rantall will be in there as a HBF or BP. Laurie Nash as a CHB and Ron Clegg on a HBF.

Most of the team will be probably pre 1970.

IMO all these teams Back six are quite good

Geelong- Bernie Smith Scarlett T Stewart

I don’t know enough about our previous eras but:
Stewart - Scarlett - Milburn
Enright - Taylor - Duncan/Wojsinski would be incredibly hard to score against and would give a lot of attacking power
