Herald Sun Team of the Century

Enright over Fletch in this century if you are fair dinkum.

if you are a fair dinkum cats supporter?

nah seriously i think he is in there too. pretty tough to separate them too tbh. enright should probably be in there though

Treadrea ... LOL

Very very good player. Better than Reiwoldt, Pavlich but JB I dunno.....

dedja can't see North of Anzac Highway so take his opinion with a grain of salt.

Tredrea better the Reiwoldt, Pavlich, Brown? Splitting hairs to be honest. Tredrea, Brown and Reiwoldt have all at the peak of their careers been the go to man in the team who was at or near the top of the table. That's the mark of a truly great CHF IMO, one who is playing in one of the very best sides and although Pavlich is now in a team at the top of the table ( 2013 anyway ) he is simply a brilliant player and leader.

You'd be foolish to try and split the 4 of them or rank them in order.

People have forgotten Tredrea's struggling end of career and are witnessing the very same from Brown right now. But all four difficult to split for sure. Perhaps longevity is the 'circuit breaker' even though I'm aware Tredders is older than the rest. I remember watching him running around for the Pies with you and your family at Footy Park around 96 (?) and thinking 'how good is this bloke' but naturally I couldn't tell you Port scum that.

Tough to split Fletcher and Enright? Turn it up.

Yep, fair point, incorrectly overlooked him.

Too many stars to choose from, but I thought Peter Matera might have at least rated a mention in their discussions as a wingman or HBF

[bennymacca]

Retired in 2002, so not in that team

Huh? So did Lockett, Carey not long after

[Phantom Gossiper]

Brad Johnson - x6 All-Australian, x5 in the 2000's and once as captain.. not good enough to get a spot?

Which is why they aren't listed in GWW's team of the 2000s

Yeah I think he has to grab a forward pocket over boomer

Ahh, crossed wires, I was talking about Derm and Robbo's team and selection discussion

[bennymacca]

Yeah the thread got hijacked a bit haha

On previous posts I think Jezza deserves a spot in the team of the Century however he owns the most overrated mark in the games history.

I've seen 50 marks better with Brett Burton beaten by Gary Moorcroft as the best in my opinion. Smith got high but Burton was in a massive contested pack on the move and Moorcroft was just an absolute peice of art @ full stretch...

Gary Moorcroft's mark is the best mark ever. As you said LK, an absolute piece of art.

Shaun Smith in 1995 for me.

Call me a big moments kinda guy- the best mark I have ever seen is Leo Barry in the 2005 Grand final.

For Speccies, although its debatable that he controlled it- Ablett over Pert in 1994.

Very debatable indeed.

I doubt he was really in control after we swung himself around. Top marks for those acrobatics...

you may find this a bit of a surprise but i totally agree... One of the biggest clutch moments going around...

I think this is why Jezza's grab in 1970 is so highly regarded. Carlton needed someone (and something) to inspire them, and this grab, not to mention the use of handball and Teddy Hopkins, did just that.

[woodublieve12]

i'm not sure if he's been mentioned yet, but i'm surpised i haven't seen Robert Harvey's name at least thrown up for consideration...Champion
