The arrogance of one Giants fan.
"We were comfortably beaten by a team that’s likely to lose in the second round of the finals. This is our year".
No. You are not entitled to it being "our year" and it actually requires more than just taking guys out and silly memes. You actually have to show up.
Their finals record against us has given them a false hope that their team isn’t capable of living up to.

all subjective but imo
If it's as a swan then Buddy is not 1, and there is no way JPK is 4 he should be 1 or 2 behind Goodes.
Papley Kennelly and Mills don't even belong on the list ? How Mills ahead of say Hannebery or Parker or even Heeney?
Heath Grundy ?
wow did you drink before the list
good job though

Me too, I am on board the Hayward train mate , been for a long time .
Yesterday was an outstanding game, but to me he led the way early with the massive tackle , he is a role player not a star and we need him.

IMO the evenness of our team means there are only three players I think we'd be royally ****ed if we had to play a substantial number of games this season without: McCartin, Rowbottom, Heeney.
And the latter isn't even structural at all, purely just because of his sheer talent that is on another level to literally every player on the ground, every single week.
I hope McCartin is OK and we get him back as soon as is safe and possible to do so.

Potentially unpopular opinion but I don't know I agree.
Granted I think he had his best game yet tap-wise yesterday, but I feel like Grundy has mostly been a workhorse ruck for us, rather than a masterful tap ruck. Winning his own ball and the subsequent clearances. Following up with the defensive efforts. And generally just making contests in the ruck to at least nullify any chance of opposition ruck dominance.
I believe all of the above is replicable by Ladhams if he's in form. It's basically what Hickey used to do when at his best, we just didn't get it enough from him. Grundy's delivering it week on week. I don't see why Ladhams couldn't.
Where I do agree with you is that our midfielders look more proactive around the contest this year and I think the injection of a quality ruckman has allowed that. Maybe they'd revert back to not having as much confidence in their ability to win the ball out of stoppages and would set up more defensively as a kneejerk response if they lost Grundy.

Not so sure about your top 10 - it is pretty subjective - FWIW I got railed for missing Jones' the other week. In any event depending on when you determine since plugger, but lets go with retirement date, Maxfield and Kelly should gain at least a place in the top 10 and Rampe has had a greater impact than Kennelly and Richards. What about Jude Bolton?

Yep subjective but arguably in the ball park

I have no data ( and I am too lazy to check) to say this is accurate, but I feel like Grundy is way more than a workhorse and is arguably top 3 ruckman in the comp for the impact he makes. I feel his level is certainly well above Hickey and Ladhams, especially last year Hickey. To put Ladhams in would be a massive downgrade, but its just my opinion.
Not sure the tap work or extra mid is there then, BUT it is all subjective. I certainly agree with your original list, especially T Mccartin. At least Ladhams is a backup option, there is no back up Tmac at all.
I appreciate the subtly
