    I think rating him as #6 of your life-time would be fine though...halfway through the 3rd I had him top 10 (EASY) but he slid a little with that fumble on the wing in the last.
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

    Tomorrow it still would have been KT at one but Quinlan, West, Dempsey and Beasley could have been next. The day after that it could be Darcy, Wynd, Griffin and Morris or Murphy, Foster, Brown and Cameron. It's always Templeton at #1 though, that's undisputable.
    Well this is a surprise.

    Beasley kicked more goals than any other VFL/AFL player during the 80s.

    If I did that list on a different day I might get different players. Wynd and Hardie might even get a run out of biased sentimentality, although I was a massive tits Kennedy fan as a kid.

    Yeah me too. One of our greatest players was Dempsey, best ruckman I have ever seen and I should have had him in.

    He was that good.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Re: Your Top 5 best Bulldog players ever (in order)

    Following on the radio (rarely tv) through the 70's so my list is from the early '80's. Otherwise Demps (6 b&f's and the most brownlow votes) and KT would have featured.

    Granty
    Westy
    The Hawk
    Libba
    Johnno

    Apologies to Beazer, Choco, Boydy, Big Scotty and Mark Cullen.
