Pound for Pound - Ben Hart, Guy McKenna or James Clement?

[davidmuir21]

All extremely fair, smart and impeccably skilled. Also, all have filled a variety of roles in defence.

Granted, one is retired, one is almost retired and one has a few good years to go.

I think the 3 true "quarterbacks" of the AFL in the last 15 years.

 

[Power21]

Clement.

 

[jo172]

The thing with Hart is that most of his best footy was played 8 - 15 years ago but he is still plodding on which is why most of the posters on here are going to rate him last, similar with McKenna played too long ago for many BF posters to remember, for mine

Bluey
Hearter




Clement (In a few years he can be compared to the above two, not yet)

 

[jimmy35]

Clement , and only with a slight bias.

 

[Upgrayedd]

McKenna easily
followed by hart, then clement,

 

[docker_johnno]

Shane Parker

 

[TipTruck]

Hard one.

Clement probably, only because he is a bit more versatile in that he plays on big guys better.

 

[bunsen burner]

McKenna without a shadow of doubt.

 

[Oh When the Saints]

McKenna by the length of the straight and then some.


A couple of notches above Hart and certainly clear of Clement.

 

[Coin_Toss]

McKenna and Clement were/are very proficient , and you'd rarely here a murmur out of them.

In my opinion, Clement: for evenness across the board.

 

[Kerr=God]

It has to be Bluey McKenna without question.

Yeah im biased, but i watch a hell of a lot of footy and i have seen all three blokes from the start of there careers, throughout there careers and to where they are now.

Bluey takes the biscuits in every area...

* Strength
* Skill
* Courage
* Ability to read the play

The other two guys are wonderful players also (with Hart shading Clement IMO; even though i think Clement is more in the Kemp mould than Hart) but Bluey was just on another level im afraid.

McKenna is much like Dean Kemp; people over east simply didnt see him enough to realize just how bloody good he really was.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

McKenna
Clement

Hart

But marginal.

Andrew McKay and John Blakey, who both played similar roles around about the same time, would also slot in their somewhere too.

 

[McBain]

McKenna by the length of the strait.

Would you put Hart in the q/b mould, surely he's more of a stopper ?

Would prefer Aussie Jones in that q/b role meeself....

 

[masai]

McKenna by the length of the straight and then some.


A couple of notches above Hart and certainly clear of Clement.

I'll go with that.

 

[Quinz]

Bluey easily.

 

[Ron The Bear]

I'd have McKenna on top. Rate Clement again when his career is over.

 

[Bueller]

Rate Clement when he finishes.

The other two have more time on him. A bit hard to judge.

 

[Darealrath]

McKenna.

 

[whatwhatsaywhat]

i'll go hart, closely followed by mckenna. both, at their best, were brilliant.

 

[recon]

McKenna easily he just never played a bad game.

 

[Underdog]

wow! I though Bluey might be underrated by the majority, especially considering Worsfold and Jako were more high profile on the same line.

Im glad he gets the recognition he deserves

 

[Altum Volantes]

Bluey from Hart then Clement. All great players obviously.

 

[Art Vandelay]

McKenna, McKenna then McKenna
