Opinion Dangerfields 50th GFC Game, has there been a better first 50 games for a new club?

So Danger plays his 50th game for Geelong this weekend against West Coast which got me thinking, has there been a better 50 game block for a player at a new club, Gaz would be pretty close in my opinion but Danger just edges him because of his impact.

Greg Williams at Sydney went OK.

Greg Williams at Carlton went OK.

It's pretty hard to go past Ian Stewart.

I'm sure if Smedts had've been allowed to play 50 games at Carlton he would have gone close.

Won the Brownlow in his first year at Richmond, didn’t he. But I still reckon Danger’s two seasons at Geelong were sublime. I don’t recall a Stewart having as big a 2nd year, but then again I was only 12

Edit: just checked Wikipedia and read Stewart only just won the 1971 Brownlow and did not have as dominant a 2nd year as Danger did

Ditto Jansen at Brisbane.

Gary Ablett Snr played for Victoria and kicked 8 goals after only 9 games for Geelong.

He also made the VFL team of the year and won the B&F.

That bald guy in my avatar played a pretty good first 50 for the Suns.

I believe John Coleman kicked the first century in over a decade in his.
