Problem is, you assumed those two were the best, it's definately arguable.Chewy said:
Jarman
McDermott
Rehn
McGuiness
Hart
There's some pretty handy players to consider, and from a successful era.
D.Jarman is my pick by the way.

The middle one did, yepRustyG said:Fair call.
How about this then?
Didn't the older of the younger,but the younger of the older play for the Hawks?

^ jealous cos ur sh|thole of a team chose not to accept mcleod into your club?
Since the Crows claimed the right to wear a 1930's state jumper last year for the heritage round how come guys like Barrie Robran, Lindsay Head and Neil Kerley aren't getting mentioned in this discussion?
They are both great players in different sort of ways, but I would vote for McLeod simply because he is a ex Port Adelaide boy.
Crows have played off in 2 day and 1 night GF’s since McLeod debuted. He was BOG in all 3 and they won all 3. That'll do me. Nothing against any other Crow but when the stakes have been highest McLeod has produced his considerable best.

Nice try Toots, but the jumper was clearly a replica to celebrate that our heritage came from the SANFL. The jumper did not have the SA logo, it had an AFC logo.
Judging by your club's heritage guernsey, how come B1, B2, Rat in A HAt and Morgan don't get a mention among your club's greats?

Add to that, the fact that he should have won a Brownlow, if the white maggots hadn't seen fit to not give him a solitary vote for his B.O.G . performance against Fremantle. That's life, but still disappointing as it would have capped off a remarkable career for Macca.

He wasn't Adelaide's greatest player. Jars had his best years at Hawthorn.
But he was ridiculously good....
Ben Hart - very good, dependable defender
Shaun Rehn - awesome before the knee went
McDermott, McGuinness, Goodwin, Smart, Modra, Bickley, Edwards and the Jarman brothers have all been good.
No one can seriously suggest any of them have been better than Ricciuto or McLeod for Adelaide.
The best ever crow IMO
McLeod is the better all round skilled footballer and is more of a matchwinner than Woo so i would pick him.
Both have been great, but Ricciuto just, because of his consitency.
Brownlow v 2 North Smith's.
Ricciuto played a more consistent season when he won his Brownlow, but McLeod steps up for the big games time and time again. A very close call, but I go with McLeod just.

McLeod at his best was equal to any midfielder I've seen at full flight, bit up and down but played his best when it counted, two grand finals, two norm smiths.
Ricciouto has been a rock and so consistent, I couldn't make the call, but his leadership ability may tip him over the edge just, but it would hurt make a call either way.

Bickley - for the pure fact he broke a Wakelin's jaw!
