Yeah absolutely. As a whole package he was probably a better overall player and had far more weapons IMO. The 3 I listed have all kicked double the goals of Cyril though unfortunately, and that’s really hard to go past if you’re trying to rank them.

Sharing the f50 with the likes of Cyril, buddy, even Puopolo makes bruest total goals even more notesble
 
Is Luke Breust the greatest small forward of all time? What criteria do we use to evaluate that question?
Lethal was the greatest by pretty much all criteria.

Buddy's height was deceiving and you could argue he played a large part of his career as a small forward

Did lethal actually play as a full time fwd? I never saw him play
He played as an actual full forward, not just a forward, during the latter part of his career. In his youth (before my time but from what I read) he played forward pocket while Peter Crimmins filled the first rover spot. He kicked 11 as a rover one day and 11 as a forward years later.

Peter Daicos has to be right up there as the best small forward ever, probably only behind Matthews. And Kevin Bartlett was outstanding as a half forward in the latter years of his career; he kicked 21 goals in three finals in 1980!
 
Not sure how you’re defining “small forward” but given that Gary Buckenara is only a smidgen taller than Luke Bruest, I’d rate Bucky ahead of him every day of the week - and that’s no disrespect of Luke who’s also one of our all time greats.
Bucky was one of my favourites. Such a shame about his knees. :(
 
Thanks for everyone’s replies. the reason why I occasionally post those type of questions (other than I was drunk as I just turned 50!) is to enjoy the different opinions and in many cases as an older supporter taking trips down joyful memory lane. What a club eh!!!
 

'I was hacked' - everyone who has sent a dick pic as a tweet as opposed to a DM in the last 15 or so years.
Highly unlikely he was hacked. Usually the hackers will lock you out of your account. Don't get your account back 5 minutes later. Suspect he had a few and hit the wrong button

Agreed - it’s the catchcry of everyone caught like this on Twitter et al. Was even funnier when you could see people’s likes and adult material would inevitably be liked/retweeted by politicians. I’d give full credit to any of them that would just say ‘yeah my bad, that was me!’.
