Yeah Dunstall was a real dud.

AFLW 2024 - Round 8 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
I had a huge post written out refuting all of this, but it's just dawned on me that nearly all of those named are Saints players.1. Lockett - Most goals of all-time
2. Harvey - Most disposals/Brownlow votes
3. Riewoldt - Most marks of all-time
4. Hayes - Most career tackles & Norm Smith medalist
5. Milne - Best small forward of all-time
Anyone listing Dunstall, Hird, Buckley, Voss, Goodes or Judd over these guys obviously haven't seen them play. Dunstall did nothing but mark and goal compared to Plugger, Hird isn't even coaching this year, Buckley never won a premiership, and Goodes was lucky to win two brownlows, and is elevated due to his racial vilification. Not even in the top 3 Swans forwards), Voss couldn't coach and was in a good team for his premierships, and Judd has done nothing since his WC days. Not saying they're not all decent players, just not top 5 material.
Never saw Leigh Matthews play, but can't imagine he would have been all that good. Definitely not top 5 material anyway. Shoulda named the AFL MVP over someone like Lockett, who has way more goals than Matthews.
Carey and the Abletts I can understand. Daryl Baldock, Ted Whitten, Ian Stewart, Kevin Sheedy, Trevor Barker, Billy Brownless, Stewie Loewe (2nd most marks of all-time), Nicky Winmar (Michael Tuck medalist), Nathan Burke (best Saints captain of all-time), John Longmire, Crawf, Lloydy, Scott West, Nigel Lappin, Richo, G-Train (100 goals in a season), Brendan Goddard (best player of past 2 years), Nick Dal Santo, Leigh Montana and Buddy are close, and all top 20 for mine.
1. Matthews
2. Bunton
3. Carey
4. Skilton
5. Hudson
You already posted your top 5. Bunton seems to have slipped a place in favor of Carey. His recent media work helped bump him up a place has it?
yes but you can only really watch his footage when his career was in decline, unfortunately you only get snippets of his best workIs there any footage of Lethal I can watch? I wasn't fortunate enough to be alive in his playing career.
You have Selwood in front of GAJ?Royce Hart
Kenny Hunter
Peter Dempsey
Simon Madden
Joel Selwood

So going purely off stats, not going to bother watching any of them play. How is Hird's coaching relevant to if his a great player also?1. Lockett - Most goals of all-time
2. Harvey - Most disposals/Brownlow votes
3. Riewoldt - Most marks of all-time
4. Hayes - Most career tackles & Norm Smith medalist
5. Milne - Best small forward of all-time

Who are your top 5 players, from anyside, you've witnessed and seen in your time? I'm not asking about players before you were born. Who are the players that have made you take notice the most.
