How many All Australians or Copelands does Hill have? Your dismissal of huge contributions over hundreds of games because of one blinder from Hill is bizarre

If I was picking a side to play tomorrow, I’d have Hill over Licca and Adams.
Not dismissing the huge contribution they made.
In my opinion, Hill is one of the best small forwards we’ve had.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Not dismissing the huge contribution they made.

How many Norms did Adams and Licca win?

Yeah okay…

 

[jmac70]

Yeah okay…

Yeah ok

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Oh and by the way, Adams finished second in Norm Smith Medal voting in 2018 in a losing side, and Licca was an indisputable BOG in the 2002 QF - without which we would’ve been unlikely to have even played in that Grand Final.

Yeah, I know, they were excellent players.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Yeah, I know, they were excellent players.

Appreciate your acknowledgement as such. Personally, I don’t think it makes sense to compare them to Hill because none are like for like either. All three are credentialed in big games. Hill has a career ahead of him to continue to make claims. We’re lucky to have him.

The premise of the thread is to select a side from players of this century. I’d have Burns over Adams, and Hill over Licca.

Doesn’t mean I don’t rate Adams and Licca.

 

[CheckerTrade666]

All of you are wrong with your selections. the real panel of people that should select this team are the people that selected the AFL Team of the Century. Which means that no Collingwood players should be selected at all, even in a team suppose to be consisting of only Collingwood players.

Maynard over Heath Shaw and Leon Davis the back pocket is laughable. Maynard is so overrated.

No Dale Thomas?

Maynard is so far better than both that it isn’t funny.

Swan on the bench ??
Lol
He’s top 5 Collingwood of all time

Buckley, Pendles and Nick are better.

 

[cfc19902010]

Buckley, Pendles and Nick are better.

5 time all Australian
3 time Copeland
Brownlow
Premiership


He ain’t on any bench

 

[Magnanimous]

I'd have Dale over Beams even though Beams won BnF

I'd have Dale over Adams.

What about Bobby ‘Norm’ Hill?
Easily ahead of Adams or Liccura

Bobby in Leon out.
One clearly performs on the big stage.

I’ve picked my team based on the absolute best each player can produce.
On that measure, I have Swan behind Bucks,
Nick and Pendles.

I’d have them both. Leon’s 2011 season is the back half was sublime

Swan produced week after week year after year
Dane swan is one of the greatest Collingwood players ever
His stats say it all as part of his greatness
He starts in the middle of any Collingwood lineup no matter what gets said on here

I’m not sure that Swan’s best is behind any of those listed.

Ok, we’ll put him in the middle in your team.

It’s just my opinion dude.
I’m not running for election on this.
