Who is the best ever Australian Rules footballer?

Question

Jezza? Barras? Huddo? Blighty? Lethal? Jacko?

Answer 1

Hard to say because the all do very different jobs in a team. The best I'd say would be Lethal, he certainly was the toughest.

Answer 2

You gave selected a group of Legends, this is is a hard and extremely difficult one to pick. But I would pick Barras, only because he was an outstanding player and a very good coach.

Answer 3

i would have to say, either john cahill, or russell ebert. Both port magpies boys!

Answer 4

Ask this in five years time and we'll all answer Chris Judd.  But for now, I'll go with Wayne Carey, only because he played the toughest position on the ground so well for so long.

Answer 5

i hate to admit it but chris judd.

Answer 6

i think jezza, he was awesome to watch.  these days i think maybe  judd or kerr.

Answer 7

blight

but come on

Matty Lloyd he makes essendon  YER!!!!!

Answer 8

brendan fevola is............

Answer 9

Tony Lockett

Answer 10

Jason McCartney. He is super brave coming back and helping his side beat Richmond after that Bali bombing. He may not be the Most talented or greatest player ever but he was sure the bravest.

Answer 11

Garry Ablett Senior.

Answer 12

I think the person who has contributed most to the game is lethal.... the man is a genius on may levels, being player of the century sort of high lights that fact.

Answer 13

Wayne Carey

Answer 14

Carey??

Answer 15

Leigh Matthews - deadset legend as both a player and a coach.

Answer 16

i feel that the game has changed too much to select a single player as the best. of the current lot Judd is brilliant, as is the aging collingwood skipper nathan buckley, matheew lloyd, james hird. i can't judge the older generations as i am not old enough to have seen them play.

Answer 17

Well its Hard to choose because they are all really good!

Answer 18

Well there was a huge survey a few years ago, of fans & experts, and they chose Lethal.

I would say Polly Farmer.

Answer 19

I have never heard of any of those names but i would probably pick Chris Judd or Ben Cousins

Answer 20

Chris Judd is the best midfielder of all time and when he finishes he WILL be the greatest player to have ever played the game. I was always a fan of Gary Ablett Senior (not that c**p son of his playing these days) and Wayne Carey as the best forwards

Answer 21

none of those I think Thorold Merrett John Coleman of the old players but todays players I hate to say it probably is Chris Judd but my choice would be Nathan Buckley

Answer 22

This one is definitely a matter of opinion as shown by the answers so far. It's hard to compare players of different eras and positions.

Of the players that I have seen play possibly Hird or Carey would be up there.

Answer 23

Jacko

Answer 24

um..ok

first of all

buckley is NOT a legend, nor is he even decent

many people in the know regard leigh matthews as the best of all-time

present time, chris judd is the best

Answer 25

Cazaly

Answer 26

James Hird
