If by A-Grade you mean Elite then I would say:
Ablett
Bartel
Scarlett
Ling (arguably the best tagger going round...)

Corey & S.Johnson aren't far off it either.

Maligned as he may be, but compared to famous maligned players of Geelong in the past 30 years or so, starting with Larry Donohue, Terry Bright (Whom my father nastily called Terry Fright!), the Nankervis brothers to some extent with their Leyland Brothers tag, through to famous names like Alan Reid, Trevor Poole, Steven Reynoldson and through to Brett Spinks, David Spriggs and big Henry.......he possesses that premiership medallion. Nothing can ever take that from him, and perhaps it's good for us and him to have a pet 'maligned player' to sort of good-naturedly bag.

Back on topic, and if A-Grade means elite level, then definately Gary Jr, Scarlett, Bartel and also S.Johnson. Chappy would also be at this level if fully fit, and the rest of the AA's including the unlucky Ottens would be at the level just below. Great depth of talent at the club.

Terry Bright and the Nankervis brothers?? Regardless of the wit of your father, its stretching it a bit to say that they were maligned.

Prior to 2007:
1. Matthew Scarlett

After 2007:
1. Matthew Scarlett
2. Gary Ablett
3. James Bartel

Chapman so close... and a few more will be added to that list provided they can back up in 2008.
