Rumour Dunstall to likely be named Legend in hall of fame

[Piggy2008]

What time even is the hall of fame on tonight

 

[sosos]

Dunstall deserves his place. But Lockett was the better player in my opinion.

 

[Demon in Hell]

Imagine if Lockett had played for Hawthorn and Dunstall played for St Kilda.

The former would have kicked 2000 goals, the latter would have been lucky to get to 500.

 

[Piggy2008]

Imagine if Dunstall was selfish, would of easily beat Lockett in all time gls and Hudson’s record of 150 in 1992 when he kicked 145

Nathan Burke really ?
Hmm. No comment

If Russell Ebert is not elevated tonight, the whole thing is a farce, especially as he is well overdue and this sadly is probably the last time/opportunity we will be able to honour him whilst he is still with us.

Dunstall can wait, he'll be elevated eventually

Apparently Russell needs to be dead to be recognised now.

Imagine if goal assists counted. Dunstall would have had 2,500 combined. He gave away plenty of goals, and had other goal kickers around him competing for the ball. Lockett didnt actually have anyone to hand over to.

If Dunstall was selfish he would be by far the top goal kicker

Hope the rumours of him and his wife over the years aren't true.

323 games
4 x All Australian (more than Kernahan and Brereton combined!)
3 x B&F (despite competing with Lockett, Harvey, Winmar, Loewe, Frawley, Everitt, etc)
Club captain, etc.

Was just a matter of when, not if.

Nothing would come up

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Wonder if Nicky Winmar will finally get in.

Domestic violence is the rumour. But Ive never heard anything remotely along those lines.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Oh dear no Dunstall this year.

Great to see greats from the WAFL and SANFL elevated but no Ebert ...

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Wonder if Nicky Winmar will finally get in.

Should have been in years ago, still staggered why he isn't SMH

I was looking at the AFL website and it said this Oatey bloke had a lot of rules for the players, Dunstall would not be in Oateys category for footballer
1- not the most well shaven through career eg mullet
2- didn’t attend the function if it was not compulsory (avoid brereton)
3- have a bit more than 1 small beer on occasion eg 2 slabs on plane going to Miami for exhibition match, see good for football video for more of that
4- conduct himself eg steal coach’s car then crash it and don’t shoot the fat one
Still piggy should be in hall of fame legend

I've heard/seen this alluded to numerous times. What is the spat between the two?

Kernahan and Brereton in their primes before All Australian was an annual thing.

Just simply two opposing personalities that had little in common off the field. Believe it or not, Dunstall was usually the boisterous drunk/trouble-maker, not Brereton..!
