Cousins
Buckley
Carey
D Martin
Riccuito
Silvagni
Goodes
Akermanis
Hodge

[PowerfulPies2023]

Hird

[Priddis Is Done]

Very tough call between McGovern and jako but McGovern for me.

Voss is equal number one with Carey.

Hird 3

Kerr should be 4

Lloyd 5

Mark Mercuri should be top 10

The type of sublime football skills that no current player has.

 

[Shane Heard]

Very tough call between McGovern and jako but McGovern for me.

Both very good ordinary defenders.

Defending is easy for a tall jumping athlete with timing. You just punch the shot out anything coming your way.

 

[Thrawn]

Mark Mercuri should be top 10

The type of sublime football skills that no current player has.

Top 10 all time misses, sure.

Very tough call between McGovern and jako but McGovern for me.

Jako played like a terminator.

 

[Gumby2Hurley]

Franklin as the best fwd in the last 20 years and it isn’t close.

 

[sleep]

This thread should be banished to the 'Lists' subcategory so no one ever sees it again.

 

[Shane Heard]

This thread should be banished to the 'Lists' subcategory so no one ever sees it again.

Before that happens ..I wanna say that Jake Melsham is one of great small forwards of all time.
