Riewoldt, his a superstar in a star side, to stand out as much as him in that side you have to be an absolute legend.

Reiwoldt has the skills no doubt, but Brown has the cahones as well.
So he should built like a tank.
 
Brown would never buckle over like Riewoldt did in the prelim last year. None of the great CHFs would do that.

Riewoldt played awesome in the Prelim.
 
Both great players but if you look at their records Reiwoldt has achieved a lot more over a shorter period. 4v2 AAs , 5v3 B&Fs etc

He also burst onto the scene more quickly. He missed vast majority of 2001 with injury but was B&F/NAB rising star in his 1st full season. By 2004 (his 3rd full season) he was AA, won a 2nd B&F and won the AFL players MVP, pretty astounding.

Browns earlier career was more a cameo surrounded by a team of mature stars eg 2003 (3rd season) 19 games, 14 goals. 2004 27 goals 12th in B&F.
It took him 7 years to crack the top 10 in the Lions B&F for the 2nd time. He was hampered with injuries during some of these middle years

Brown has established a phenomenal record in the last 3 seasons, comprable to Reiwoldts through the same time but Roo has just been at a higher level for a longer time despite less seasons in the game so gets my nod
