So you make the statement that the majority of AFL forwards would "vote" Presti the hardest defender thay've played against, then you announce that you have no evidence of that bar Jonathan Brown's comment and then you look for someone "more sensible" to post.

Why don't you just ask for people to agree with you or not post?

God, sometimes it's an uphill battle to argue against the Collingwood stereotype

I don't think I said anywhere that I don't like him or don't think he's a very good defender or that he's the very, very best full back we've had for the last 273 years. In fact i don't think I commented on Presti at all.

I think my comments were directed at your claims.....

WOULD???? show me the evidence, son. It's you making the grandiose statements.

in the past 10 posts you havent said what you think...so..you are a waste of time!!!!



EVIDENCE- 2002-2003- PIES MADE GRANNYS----- PRESTI PLAYED EXTREMLY WELL IN BOTH YEARS--


FOLLOWING FEW YEARS----- HE HAD INJURIES (GROIN PROBLEMS, ELBOW, SHOULDER, HAMSTRINGS).....PIES STRUGGGLED WITH ONLY WAKELIN AND JIMMY.



I AM NOT GOING TO MAKE FURTHER COMMENTS TO YOU AS I KNOW AND AS I SAID BEFORE- ANY PIES SUPPORTER WITH HALF A BRAIN KNOWS....HE IS ONE OF THE MORE IMPORTANT PLAYERS IN OUR STRUCTURE OVER THE PAST 5 PLUS YEARS

Oh, I get it. You can't read......I guess that makes it pretty difficult when using this medium. Maybe you can speak to the mods and get a podcast.

I want you to tell me who is the best forward when fully fit playin the game?



i say J Brown


He did say that Presti is his hardest opponent!

Would he out vote Scarlett, Fletcher, Rutten,...hell, even O'Hailpen is proving to be tougher than Presti.

I think you guys need to start a serious appreciation thread, rather than trying to feel good about an average player.

Brodie Holland is one that comes to mind as underated. Paul Licuria is another.

It is not about who we support. It bothers me not whether you follow Collingwood, or Essendon, etc

It comes down to the lack of knowldege about your chosen subject

Most objective people would not have Presti in the top 10 fullbacks of the past 10 years. Other Collingwood supporters hav said the same thing IN THIS THREAD

Presti is a gun.

First player that opposition supporters bag each week, but when it comes to manning up on a key forward, there aren't many better than Presti.

Sure..OK.

But why are you guys not listing the other 5 or 10 top full backs. THen we can make an impartial judgement to see if he is in fct in the top 10 full backs of the last 10 years as claimed by this thread.

I dont think he is, but am happy to be proven wrong. I put my list out there for debate....and took a hammering on Gaspar.....lets some some of your lists
 
The Captain said:
Are you kidding me???

Ok..let's try name some better than him that have played since 1997 (10 years ago)..in no particular order...this will not be hard

1) Fletcher (Ess)
2) Scarlett (Geel)
3) Mal Michael (Brisbane years)
4) McIntosh (WCE)
5) Rutten (Adel)
6) Gaspar ( Richmond)
7) Hay (Hawthorn)
8) Barry (Syd)
9) Silvagni (Carl)
10) Martyn (Nth)

Need i keep going?

I would have to reach the 20's before Presti gets a guernsey

Of that list id have Presti ahead of

L.Barry - not a true KP backman
Hay - one season wonder
Martyn - close to presti, but he was in successful teams all his career so never had to deal with the ball coming in as easy as presti
Gaspar - a couple of good years tarnished by him being rubbish
Rutten - when u have a dozen other blokes helping u out it is easier, also has only had a couple of good years, in time he may pass presti, but not at the minute

so id rank him 6th behind
Flethcer
Scarlett
McIntosh
Michael
SOS

L.Barry - not a true KP backman He plays on the best forward every week. Just because he plays the role different to the classical FB, doesnt mean he isnt a full back. Scarlett plays a similar role, yet you rate him
Hay - one season wonder All Australian. Cant be dismissed that easily
Martyn - close to presti, but he was in successful teams all his career so never had to deal with the ball coming in as easy as presti Martyn was a premier full back for 5 or 6 years. He played on Ablett, Dunstall, Kernahan, etc....You cannot argue that the midfield saved him
Gaspar - a couple of good years tarnished by him being rubbish Again, an All Aussie. His career has gone on too long, but still he was very good for 4 or 5 years
Rutten - when u have a dozen other blokes helping u out it is easier, also has only had a couple of good years, in time he may pass presti, but not at the minute Sensible argument

so id rank him 6th behind
Flethcer
Scarlett
McIntosh
Michael

Others to add that may be better than Presti...Croft at WB, O'Reilly at Geelong, Langford at Hawthorn (does he meet the 10 year rule?), Max Hougten (StK)

L.Barry hasn't been playing on the big KP forwards for a decade, Dunkley and then even A.Schauble - he won club B&F's for the swans were the KP defenders in the late 90's early 00's, he has had a good couple of last years, but presti has been doing it for a decade

Gaspar had a couple of great seasons, but has been crap otherwise, presti has been a much more consistent player

Hay, one good year doesn't make a career

Martyn as i said is comparable to presti, yet i think he was playing in dominant sides which made his job easier, hence id take presti who is more versatile

Croft............surely u jest
O'Reilly was nothing special
Langford played his final game in 96 or 97 i think so misses out
Max is a great servant, but he had the wakelins playing as KP defenders in the late 90's, then that bloke from the bulldogs who transferred over

Presti has been the pies number 1 KP defender for a decade, he takes the big forward every week and shuts them down

easily in the top 10 FB's of the last decade
