Exactly, they are forgetting the reason Cox didn't get AA ruck was because he spent 6 weeks out with a broken collar bone last year.
Whos has the best 6

Disagree, cox is the most damaging ruckmen in the competition and i think he will be for another 3 years at least.
Carlton: Stevens, Fevola, Carrazzo, Waite, Murphy, Simpson
Carrazzo is highly underrated.

West Coast have the best players, Saints have the best positional players
St Kilda's Best 6: Riewoldt, Koschitzke, Dal Santo, Montagna, S.Fisher
(Just missed out: Harvey, Hayes, Ball, Gram)

Hawthorn,Geelong and St Kilda all better than you. Coasters would have the best dozen or so though.
West coast have a sh!t forward line and a so-so backline.
Hi - you`re allowed to say shit.
From 2002-2006 he was. Hopefully he will get back into his old form, but this year he's just been an ok midfielder. Has played a few good games, but nowhere near the level of his past form. A fair way off the players I listed in the top 6.

Id say the Saints have the youngest.

So Port has a 90 point win over a 2nd string Eagles outfit and all of a sudden their top 6 is better than ours?
Got a laugh out of it

Ha ha... it is to laugh.
Lade is a better RUCKMAN than Cox. You quote Cox's ground work as being another midfielder as reasons for his superiority.
... therefore, by your rationale.
Judd is a better MIDFIELDER than Chad Cornes
but
Chad Cornes is a better FORWARD than Judd.
Chad Cornes is a better DEFENDER than Judd.
As Crows fans are wont to say,
2 >>>>> 1
C Cornes >>>>> Judd.
By your rationale, of course.And especially if we are just counting recent form (which is what you are doing with Glass and Tredrea - over their careers that is one of the more hilarious claims I have heard lately)
You seem to have the rest pretty well right - I'd even have Kerr ahead of S. Burgoyne.
North would be
Harvey, Wells, Thompson, McIntosh, Firrito and Grant.
Could easily slot in Simpson, Petrie or Harris with Grant getting over the line with Longevity at a high level. Probably has had only an "ok" year this year

It isn't about positions it's about being the better player, cox is a better player then lade.Ha ha... it is to laugh.

Its about game winners and breakers!
West coast top six all game breaker
Port Adelaide top six Very good footballers but in my op not in the same class.

I never said better, Eagles did win the comparison, but it was close
Lade is the better forward, Cox is the better midfielder.
Pure ruckwork, Lade is better. You can get 99999999 hit outs, but it's a moot point if they aren't to advantage.
Lade's rucking to advantage is higher than any ohter in the league.
I did NOT say Lade > Cox. I said they are equal.
and btw, Tredrea > Glass
Sure, if you look at past 2 years, Glass wins, but thats due to the fact Tredders barely played last year, and is coming back from injury.
IF you are looking at recent form,
C.Cornes > Judd
P. Burgoyne > Cousins (he's only had 38 possies for the year
)D. Pearce > A. Embley
Richmond >>> West Coast... read on if you don't believe
Foley > Glass - Glass doesn't get the ball as much as Foley, and Foley has explosive pace
Richardson > Kerr - Kerr couldn't mark an exam, while Richo marks everything and kicks more goals than Kerr
Simmonds > Cousins - Simmonds is a much better ruckman than Cousins, and can also drift forward and kick goals
Brown > Judd - Brown owns the F50 and can kick mercurial goals from anywhere, Judd struggles as a forward pocket
Deledio > Cox - Deledio is the quickest player that supporters have had the honour of witnessing, Cox, whilst agile, just doesn't have the pace to keep up
Embley = Bowden - Both as soft as each other
Foley > Glass - Glass doesn't get the ball as much as Foley, and Foley has explosive pace

AA all of them?
and then there's the West coast players
I disagree, cox ruckwork is only slightly less advantageous then lades and his midfielding skills are way higher, also cox very rarely gets the chance to go forward due to his midfield role but if he did i believe he'd be equal to lade with ease.Lade is the better forward, Cox is the better midfielder.

Overall i think cox shades lade.

Cox is coming back from injury, as is Embley, while Judd is playing injured.
Why is that an excuse for Tredrea, but not the West Coast players?
That West Coast trio is clearly better.
Stupidest post ever??
Actually it's kinda funny, cousins can't ruck, deledio is quicker then cox and rico kicks more goals then kerr.
Love the way you didn't focus on one particular aspect of their games
