Just about sport on.

Hard to leave Strats out but Joel Smith was a better player for us - dual AA and B & F. Forgotten gun.

I would have Burgoyne in the back pocket, Sicily to HBF and J Smith on the bench.

Naah Stratts has Joel well truly covered

That team would beat any other club’s best of the century, no question.

Exactly

I remember Joel Smith could be so good, but Stratton won way too many big finals/games for us with big moments. Not a glamorous last year or two with all the captain criticism and physical decline, but I'll always recognise what he did.

When these guys are all 6-time premiership players you'll thank me.

B1 and B2 didn't play in 2024.

They are 2024-50 team already youd think where any premierships would come

Stratton's 2018 was amazing though. Nobody could see that sudden drop off coming from a career best year.
