        I think Bob Rose has that distinction, but I wouldn't count him because he made about 15 grand finals.

                And in true eker fashion, may he never get a Brownlow vote

                    To think he's shorter than Pendlebury and Watson and has held down KPD and ruck duties for as long as he has, that's a fair effort in itself.

                    Surely elevated to 'Legend' status in the Eker HOF once he retires?

                        Would being a high draft pick add more gravitas to achieving Eker greatness or being a rookie pick up?

                                        Not true - hes just demonstrating what an elite eker he actually is, by eking off the field as well....

                                                        We've lost another eker legend today with St Kilda announcing Brett Peake has been delisted.

                                                        Dean Polo is another eker to suffer the same fate in a St Kilda post Ross Lyon eker cull.
