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

Is it too early to have McNeil at 6?

It's probably too early to have him at #1.

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.

Having named my fiive I have to add the two Libba's, who were/are the engine room of the sides that they played in.

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.

Was surprised though how many goals Beasley kicked 82-88.

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

Grant
Johnson
Hawkins
West
Beasley

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.

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.
