Maurice Rioli
Dion prestia
Bachar houli
Tom lynch
Marlion pickett
Nank at 8 throws me,
But ill add
6. Rob Wiley
7. Gas
Sugar ahead of N.Brown is patently absurd imo.

Probably, but 1 played 120 games and the other 70.
Brown's 2005 was tracking to be 1 of the all time great seasons, but he never got close to reaching those heights again.
Yeah i get it - i always felt sugar peaked in Adelaide
And n.brown was the standout player of the comp when that melb *smile* busted his leg.
Like all list, theres varying POV.
I just realised its AFL club recruits? And maurice and wiley ineligible?
They can shove the list up their arse if they think Gold Coast Suns have more capital than South Fremantle.
maurice is my no.1
And ive got a good mind to put Lambo and Broady in too.
See clarification above
The list is like The Commonwealth Games
My Olympic Top 10 taking into account pure quality and premiership delivery would be
Maurice
Nank
Dion
tom lynch
N Brown
Marlion Pickett
kane Lambert
Bachar houli
Robbie Wiley
nathan broad.
As always, i place additional weighting on toughs.
Bakes and gas stiff
* apologies Taz for flagrantly disregarding thread parameters

MRsnr pretty much signed with Sydney at one stage, so perhaps you can have him on a technicality.
But Carlton's seniors were barely AFL standard when we recruited Lambert, so their reserves definitely dont count.
Raines, Wood and Cloke, Maxfield and Lambert would all comfortably make the list of players who left
Houli may not be eligible, he wasn't actually recruited from a rival AFL club as per the criteria
I've been talking to a Blues supporting work college that was too young for this period
and sent him the Blues teams for the 72 & 73 GF's , he knew plenty of the names because they are legends
similarly our 72/73 GF sides were star studded affairs and Sproule sat comfortably in that group
both clubs had assembled really top lists and their 2nds were loaded too
to be in either side was a gold star , to be a good player in those sides add 2 more gold stars LOL
my fading memories of Sproule were steady consistent but at a high level without attracting attention
