How come Ross Oakley doesn't have a stand then?
Surely someone like Ken Farmer influenced football more in this state than Riccuito or Wanganeen?


Agree on both. I am only arguing about naming a stand after one year of playing football or an Olympian.

He has a suburb near VFL Park named after him.

Mark Riccuito has not influenced footy in this state. Russell Ebert, Craig Bradley, Stephen Kernahan, Barrie Robran, I would have before Mark Riccuito. Still cant believe he won a brownlow. Mind you Liberatore and Cooney won one.

A one club player, captain, Brownlow medalist and premiership player....I think he qualifies. And I think he's a f**kin wanker.

Each to their own, there's plenty of other greats that have been overlooked, it's all opinions, AA's haven't been around forever.

He does have a very impressive CV, perhaps it's not that common for someone so young to be rewarded the privilege, although Etihad probably set the precedent.
