Name three CURRENT players who might one day be thought of in the best 22 ever?
By Planet Wealth
I’m not talking recently retired players – which for me might include Buckley, Riscuitto (did I spell that right?) and Hird.
But out of the current crop, are there any you reckon might end up in this category.
I could accused of being biased but from my own team … Matthew Scarlett I reckon will be an absolute fantastic. (I also have a feeling about Andrew Mackie who was the real, but unnoticed, best on ground in the GF)
But he has proving to do, so I’d say Dale Thomas from the Pies, but I’m struggling to reckon of a third. Perhaps the defender who was just traded from the Crows and who’s name I can never remember! Mattner is it?
Nah Chris – just my opinion! If Silvagni can be ‘fullback of the century’ then what does that make Scarlett? A helluvalot better!
I had forgotten the nearly retired Harves was still running around … he’s up there sure and would be well in the mix for "all-time". I just reckon Thomas is a very special talent … and I am no Collingwood fan!!
Conda … who was it that place Nathan up as ‘one of the best ever’. That was one of the sillier answers I’ve seen. Must have been some cute factor.
Forky … that’s the only reason those guys appeared so excellent, they had crap fullbacks like Silvagni playing on them 
)) (And obviously guys who were even worse!)

Dustin Fletcher – One of the most consistent and reliable backmen of the modern era. Saved the Don’s many times.
J Brown – Possibility but has alot of strong competition. Has layed a solid foundation and I reckon his final years will choose.
Judd / Kerr – Strong contenders but again have strong competition

Jonathan Brown
Simon Black
Daniel Kerr

Is this a joke question ray, 3 in the best 22, you were kidding with Buckley were you not, Dale Thomas, Mattner, Scarlett, Jesus Christ are you on the woopy weed son, only one player would go close, that’d be Chris Judd, there isn’t another, do you know how many fantastic players there have been, maybe Rob Harvey, two Brownlows, deserved too. young Ablett if he plays consistently for another 5-6 years maybe, crikey mate.

yeah Mattner, if he helps Sydney to the next couple of grand finals.
Chris Judd maybe
Place Pavlich in a decent team and maybe
Jonathon Brown is certainly quality so consider. There has been a lot of fantastic forwards though and only a few positions to fill.
Who would you rather judd or ablett? An unbiased person would always go for judd so ablett’s out.
Just for a joke how about Nathan Ablett – awesome player, one of the best ever ha ha.

This might be your third choice
He kicked 6 goals in his first final including the winner from outside 50
Lance Franklin!
One day maybe he is still young.

Ray A ,take those blue and white glasses off mate,SOS played as a full back on the likes of gazza snr,tony lockett,Jason dunstall,tony modra,peter sumich,carey (at times),sav rocca (in his hey day),stewie low, and probably in an era where we had champion full forwards in every team-who has scarlett played on??? he wouldn’t even rate a mention although he is a excellent back man.
And to answer your question,well chris Judd will be up there if you are to beleive all the hype,J brown if he stays fit and,and maybe young gazza if he continues with this years form.and to be honest cousins should end up in the hall of fame just a champion player (besides all the rubbish of late)

chris judd, lots of hype but he is brilliant simple as that.
Jonathan brown when fit can win games off his own boot and as centre half forwards go he has to be at least near the best
Daniel Kerr quick, skillful and on his day can match it with judd

J. Brown
D. Kerr
R. Harvey
S. West
I reckon the last Harvey and West are still playing this season.
It’s hard to pick 3 but that’s my guess
October 5th, 2010 at 12:44 pm
1, Johnathon Brown.
2, Matthew Scarlett.
3, Chris Judd.
3a, Speedy Gonzales Cousins could of rated a mention, but as his career is kind of "on hold" i’ve place him down in the reserves

Scott West. Bulldogs.
Robert Harvey. Saints.
Chris Judd. Blues

James Hird
Chris Judd
Nick Riewoldt

Judd: might squeeze in their for his playing days at WCE will not do anything special at the Carlton blues
West: Western Bulldogs incredible player has finished in the top 3 for brownlow medal for something like 6 years now
Franklain: Huge future, will be enhanced once he returns home to the WCE
Kerr: fantastic for a small dude, carves up
Selwood Maybe even the Geelong Selwood scott i reckon? not sure he will be up thier in 4 years
October 5th, 2010 at 12:44 pm
Robert Harvey
Chris Judd
Jonathon Brown.
and much its pains me to maybe add Akermanis he does have three premiership medals and a Brownlow.

hands down , no argument , starting line up. if you disagree then you obviously have never seen an afl game in your lifetime.
no but seriously judd is the only bone fide contender , tough midfield to break into though, hed prob be on the bench.

Judd, Harvey, West.
Maybe one day, Pavlich, J. Brown, D.Kerr.
