      I remember Adam Morgan having the "best zero disposal game the AFL had seen"

      I'll say Adam Morgan

        Nice guesses.

        Beasley is one (8.4 per game).

        Croft (10.3) and Grgic (10.4), close but no cigar.

            If he squeaked past 50 games for us, he'd be a certainty you'd reckon

              As I said I haven't checked, but I do know it was round 1 against us. 1991 would fit with that and just after their flag, also rings a bell.

                Clement was a nice kick and ok player but rated higher because of who he played for.

                He was very good at pushing people in the back and getting away with it.

                          Quite ironically, it was Sav Rocca who was later stretchered off for the Pies.

                          Might have been ironic but I don't think it was a coincidence that he was stretchered off after knocking Libba (at the time the reigning Brownlow medallist) out.

                          Have to be. He played 66 games for us! I mustn't have been paying attention because I saw almost all the games he claimed to have played in and I didn't notice him.
                          They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                            Sure is, 66 games and a 9.3 possession average.

                            That leaves 1 left.

                              I think Mofra already got it with Peter Street.

                                Broke Libba's nose in Libba's final game. What a courageous man he was.
