Not nearly as embarrassing as the collective Geelong supporter base combined sooking since the qualifying finalCan another Tiger please get in here and yank this clown - he's embarrassing your entire fanbase.
Well s**t posting is a honoured Aussie traditionTextbook bandwagoner - hasn't posted in the 2 years since he signed up and since the GF win it's non stop s**t.

Who put you on this planet? 'A demented old piece of s**t' jesus mate calm the fk down will ya..And? I’m not old enough to have watched Bartlett play but from the absolute battalion of people who have, I have never once heard a single one of them try to claim Bartlett is even in the conversation. Apart from being a demented old piece of s**t who hasn’t made a worthwhile comment on the sport in decades.
Funny how in 4 of these 5 years he was kicking 50 plus goals, apparently as a genuine midfielder, he averaged less than 20 touches.
F***in s**t midfielder then.
Kevin Bartlett was a midfielder for most of his career only played at half foward in the last few years of his careerWho put you on this planet? 'A demented old piece of s**t' jesus mate calm the fk down will ya..
He is still one of the greats and one of the untouchables in the history of the game. I dont necessarily agree with what has been said about KB being better than Ablett, but to say hes a ******* s**t midfielder (who was a half forward anyway) on the basis of his stat count which of course wont look as good compared to modern footballers just goes to show how bloody clueless you are.

Based on Ablett's career to date, I still have Mathews ahead of him. Ablett has been a fantastic player but Lethal has done as much (if not more than Ablett) and was a tremendous leader. Something Ablett cannot lay claim to.
The only AFL / VFL footballer ever to be charged by Police with assault on the playing fieldBased on Ablett's career to date, I still have Mathews ahead of him.

Ablett was great - is great - because he had no clear weaknesses to his game. He was quick enough and strong enough and more importantly very difficult to tackle.
He was an accumulator but one with elite disposal. He could go forward and kick goals. Perhaps most importantly he read the game extremely well. Being successful in the AFL has a lot more to do with being able to read the play than it is about measurable physical attributes.
I agree with the OP in the sense that there is probably no single skill or physical attribute Ablett was in the top 10 of the competition for..
Hah? Why was he consistently rated No.1 by his peers, the coaches, Mike Sheehan etc? I doubt it was because he was "in the top 50 for everything"I agree with the OP in the sense that there is probably no single skill or physical attribute Ablett was in the top 10 of the competition for... although at this peak stamina would have been close.

I thought it was obvious ?Why was he consistently rated No.1 by his peers, the coaches, Mike Sheehan etc?
He didn't just not have a weakness for his opposition to work away at, he was very good at everything so there wasn't even a starting point for them.
Message gets lostI thought it was obvious ?
