      Pavlich is freos best ever player, so fyfe won two brownlows, so what !! He gets the ball and usually turns it over, lots of
      Wasted possessions.. i noticed a long time ago that Freo usually win when he dosent play as he always seems to get injured, fyfe is completely overrated.
      and Ben cousins dident win a premiership in 2005, it was 2006

    It's always interesting when someone says they think Gary Ablett Junior was the better player. Often they're letting Ablett Snr personal life bias their view and also never actually saw him play live. As someone who been at the games watching both playing at their absolute peak, sorry there is just no debate. Ablett senior was simply more skillful, explosive, exhilarating and most of all unstoppable then his son. If you think stats and decorations are what decide the better player you don't really understand why people watch football. Junior was great, but we've had quite a few champions like him (superb midfielders) over the years. There has only ever been one Gary Ablett Snr.

      agree, god was astounding; although to have his son in a serious conversation about this is remarkable. god's run off the flank and his fierceness at the ball allied to his freak marking and goal tally edge him over jesus. amazingly, i rekkun if nathan had either his dad's or brother's passion to play he might have eclipsed both!
      that said, polly farmer was a step up again and perhaps one of the greatest players ever - how could he be overlooked???

      Ablett Snr. kicked 586 goals in 161 games and he holds the record for the highest goals per game average for a non-specialist forward with 3.6 goals per game as he was a wingman-half forward flanker. The last 81 games of his career he kicked 444 goals in 81 games averaging 5.5 goals per game at full forward and he is the only player to win the Coleman Medal and kick 100 goals three straight seasons.

    Not going to argue that Ben Cousins was one of West Coasts greatest players along with Chris Judd.
    But being apart of a few West Coast groups and having these debates and discussions.
    Peter Matera rates right up there. Infact as far as gutsy freakishly good things on a football field, take into consideration the VFL became the AFL and no Victorian wanted an Interstate side winning their Cup. Roo helped win 2 of them and a Norm Smith medal in the early days of AFL were Geelong in particular found out, trying continually to take his head off and team mates, was a mistake that had a reverse effect. Lol if the rules back then were like today there'd of been 12 players out for 6 weeks from 1 GF.

Jr Ablett doesn't come near his father as a player. You mustn't know about Petter Hudson from Hawthorn. Kicked 150 goals in 1971. Was a superstar. You need to google him. Kevin Bartlett is still Richmond's best player. Cousin's also played for Richmond. Just giving you my opinion. These are good video's. I subscribed . Why don't you do best kicks for goal.

    Essendon - Wanganeen or Hird....another difficult choice.
    Fitzroy- Garry Wilson
    Footscray- Doug Hawkins
    Geelong- Gazza
    Hawthorn - Mattwews
    Melbourne- Flower was incredible.
    North - Blight.
    South- Goodes
    Richmond- KB
    St Kilda - Winmar, but only just from Barker
    Eagles - Lewis or Mainwearing.
    Crows - Jarman and McLeod are both in the Top 10 best players I've seen.

    If you were to include Fitzroy, Hayden Bunton stats were simply incredible. He won 3 brownlows in just 119 games.
    And the only player in history to achieve at least 1 Brownlow vote per game.
    He also won 3 Sandover medals when he played in the WA comp.
    The only player to win 3 Sandovers and 3 Brownlows.
    He also a highly regarded cricketer that had the potential to play test cricket.
    Your list is pretty much perfect in my view although I would definitely swap cousins for Judd. Judd was significantly the best in the comp for some time while wearing the blue and yellow.

      As a Collingwood supporter I'd have to put Syd Coventry, Gordon Coventry, Harry Collier, Albert Collier, Bob Rose and possibly Lou Richards ahead of the great Nathan Buckley.
      I also think Haydn Bunton should be considered the best player for the Brisbane Lions. It is a merged club after all.
      Coleman is a good choice for Essendon but I favour Dick Reynolds over Coleman. Similarly, I feel that Jack Dyer or Royce Hart should be considered Richmond's best.
      Other than those alterations it was a great list that I largely agree with. Good job.

      Pavlich over Fyfe, a absolute champion & like Rooey from my team the Saints. Pav did everything he could to win a flag 4 his club, then again many champions have walked away with out a flag. I'd check on Lethal Leigh as well because lm sure you said 1 all Australian on his resume. The best player lve seen has more than one or they weren't handing them out through his career. There are to many greats to rank especially since we will never see them play ever. I love Lou Richards, but Buckley & the rest someone named like Bobby Rose leave Lou behind. Buckley's kicking puts him in the pies top 5 with Pendles, Scott it's a absolute pleasure to watch you play champion 👍

      Comparing Coleman to Hudson is like splitting hairs. Generally players are rated on how dominant they are in their eras compared their contemporaries. Coleman played in a much lower scoring era, the game was played differently in his era compared to Hudson. Both outstanding and legendary players of course but the differences being in Hudson's era, many players were kicking tonnes, hence he won the league goalkeeping award 4 times in 7 years, compared to Coleman 5 times in 5 full seasons. The other difference is that Coleman had not hit his peak at the time of his injury, it was only his 6th season in senior football, compared to Huddo retiring in about his 10th senior season (having played several seasons in Tasmania's highest league). Many of those who saw Coleman play rate him the best they ever saw & by a fair margin, but again. As I said, like splitting hairs, you would probably rate them equal, easily both legends.
