I'm aware of and love the Miami Dolphins
Was just perusing AFL Tables. Thought it might be interesting to track those leading our 'games played' metric over time, particularly to see when Neitz's 306 games record might be broken.

The only other current players in the top 50 are Christian Salem (31st, 197) and Bayley Fritsch (44th, 169). Where will those still listed end up? Any general thoughts?

It's wild that, if Gawn plays most games for another two seasons, say, he'll end up with close to 300 games. Certainly wouldn't have picked that early on!

Even when ruckmen slow down they hang around for years. Goldstein is still on a list. Barring injury Gawn will get to 300 imo.

I reckon Nate Jones or Russel Robertson will make a comeback
