The media is building up the imminent Ablett versus Watson battle.
There's been some great contests over the years by individual players.
Lloyd V Brown
Van Der Har V Peter Knights
Liberatore V Kelly
What have been some more memorable man on man contests for the Woof community?

Arnold Briedis vs Billy Picken.
I remember reading something like Briedis was out with an injured hand because Picken had hit it with his head.Western Bulldogs Football Club "Where it's cool to drool"

Re: The Great Rivalries
What with those blasted rotations there isn't much time for straight up guns going head to head anymore; from a personal standpoint, I always liked it when we play Port because they don't rate Boyd and put Broadbent head to head with him. He regularly beats the piss out of him and we neve lose because of it

Re: The Great Rivalries
Ablett vs Griffen - both young and had a great battle in a game I think it was 2006. Griffen out pointed him but it was a fantastic contest.
