Who are they? Can you put them in order? Bloody tough after number 1. Can be most important if you're thus inclined.

Re: Our 5 best players?
Bloody hell. After Zaine it gets bloody tough I agree.
Bonts, Tom Boyd, Stringer, Wood, Libba - maybe - but you can make arguments for a lot, lot more.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023 -
Re: Our 5 best players?
This is a very tough question. 1. Marcus Bontempelli 2. Robert Murphy 3. Tom Liberatore 4. Easton Wood. 5. Tom Boyd
I think only one player would universally be agreed to be Top 5. No prizes for guessing who![URL="http://journals.worldnomads.com/merantau"]http://journals.worldnomads.com/merantau[/URL]

Our best pure defender is still Morris in my book too.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023Comment

Re: Our 5 best players?
1. Bont (a lock)
2. Libba (no coincidence how much better we were when he came back in)
3. Picken (went in front of Dahl this year. Does everything and kicks goals).
4. Dahl (is never, ever out of the game).
5. Wood / JJ can't split them (different players, equally important).
No Morris or Macrae is ridiculous really.But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.Comment

Re: Our 5 best players?
If we are talking about future then Toyd's might be valid but if we are talking who are our best five now, he's not really in the equation.
1. Bont
2. Libba
3. Dahl
4. JJ
5. Wood
Apologies to Macrae, Moyd and Morris......Murph the unknown based on being out most of the year.I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.Comment

Morris, Bont, Libba, Wood, M.Boyd
Murphy would be likely be in if not long term injuredListening to Brahm's 3rd RacketComment

Re: Our 5 best players?
The guy who had an ordinary year and still managed to almost average two goals a game will step up given full fitness. I can see why he doesn't figure in the lists now, but he plays a bloody difficult role for us.
It's a topic that really reinforces the strength of our recruitment of fine players.TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.Comment

Re: Our 5 best players?
I was saying this at Grand Final time...one of the primary reasons we won the flag was because of the evenness across our side, which was underrated by throughout the football community.
I would say an outsiders top 5, pre finals, would have been:
Bont, Wood, Libba, M Boyd, Stringer. Not many non-Bulldogs rate Dahlhaus, Macrae, Morris or (pre-finals) JJ, Picken and T Boyd.
For me, our top 5 are:
Bont, Wood, Dahlhaus, Libba, Morris.Comment

The real point I guess is that we don't actually have a top 5. They're all great!Comment
