Game Day Best player in history

[Upgrayedd]

As you asked 'what' rather than 'who', I nominate this pigeon. Excellently saved a goal.

Gutsy 1%er to absolutely sway the freo momentum. Make it a life member

For what it's worth, My grandad who had a bit to do with the VFL then came over to WA said Stephan Michael was the greatest player to ever play the game

Me? the most influencial individual ive seen was Judd>>Carey/Franklin/Tredrea/Cox

3 games a season? J Brown

Almost great? Riewoldt.

Consistent? Ablett Voss Goodes Buckley Mitchell Riccuto Hird Pavlich McLeod


For the poster who said Cox, Absolutely, He doesnt get the love he should. Absolutely changed the way ruckmen are supposed to play. and was just consistently on another level then anyone. Only Sandilands ever got close.

You cracked it after seeing the post about 4 posts up making that joke already? Good sleuthing mate!

To be fair, he did correct the grammar.

 

[Marcus DuQuesne]

A male Human Being.

 

[Herne Hill Hammer]

Who am I?

 

[The Falcon Strike]

I thought it was accepted that Alex Rance was the greatest

 

[The 4th Horseman]

Relton Roberts

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Clayton Oliver. Unprecedented .

best player or best hair cut?

 

[Ranga Hardie]

Voss and Carey were very influential big game players who dominated their eras. Equal Best in history.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Essendon’s Ken Hall has to be in the mix

The career stats speak for themselves

Far-ken Hall

 

[Power Raid]

Far-ken Hall

He should have been charged an entry fee to the game

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Joe Daniher. He’s overwhelmingly the only one capable of kick 100+ goals these days

I know we aren't supposed to take this thread seriously but Voss was a great player who is nowhere near Wayne Carey in the conversation.

On topic, Jarrod Waite in a couple of years when he matures.

 

[Engimal v3]

Here we go haha

I'll start us off with a nice controversial one. Dean Cox

Cox is one of the all-time greats. Finished off his career like shit, but by golly was he a player to be feared in his prime.

 

[Coolangatta]

Ablett Sr.

 

[Elite Master]

Roger Federer.

 

[Sylvia Saint]

Lots of smart aleck comments to start with, so I'm going to offer up a serious suggestion. Leigh Matthews.

In 1977 he averaged 27 touches a game and kicked 91 goals! This was decades before high possession footy, for instance, 20 touches a game was considered elite as recently as 10-15 years back. 27 touches and 3.8 goals a game in those days, blimey.

332 games, 4 flags and 900+ goals as a mid/forward. Not a bad coach either.

Dustin Martin. Just ask Richmond supporters.
