So yesterday KB briefly touched on what he thought were our best 5 players of the last 25 years.
In no order he said:
Matthew Richardson, Matthew Knights, Wayne Campbell, Craig Lambert and Joel Bowden
Intrested in any thoughts on the topic ;)
-
I like his 5. I'd love to add Tony free but injuries ruined his career he certainly wouldve been a great player for us if he had a decent run of games.
And trevor Poole was a great player too.

Richardson
Cotchin
Knights
Campbell
Deledio

Richardson
Bowden
Knights
Campbell

Cotchin will be 2nd behind only Richo in another couple of years.

Agree with the last line Smokey but did you really put Bowden in front of Knights?
I'm a fan of Joel's and he was a very good player but he's not in that company IMO.
Just wondering your thought process on that?
-
I'll start a discussion here with some. Bowden is not top 5.
I will not include current tigers as I think that is not right.
1. Richardson
2. Knights
3. Campbell
4. Broderick
5. Benny Gale
Liked Lambert but left for Brissy.

:lol
Sorry MM, didn't list them in order. Here's mine:
Richo
Knights
Campbell
Deledio
Bowden
And responding to Tucker:
I think Lids 6 years has been enough to warrant his inclusion in best of last 25 years and that's the same reason I left Cotch out at this stage. Both are now or will be better than Bowden but I think Joel was a better player over his career than Benny Gale or Paul Broderick, even though both were very worthy considerations. And agree with Lambert - if he had stayed (like Maxwell) then he would have warranted consideration as well.

So we've agreed to agree and disagree as well. :lol :rollin :lol

-
KB said his best was Cambo
Totally agree :thumbsup
-
Campbell was great. His 1995 was fantastic. How he only polled 12 votes in the Brownlow that year is a mystery.
I think certain issues 1998 and the captaincy are things that to some may have left black marks against his credentials.
-
Ignoring current
Richo
Knights
Campbell
Broderick
Gale
Honorable very close mention to Gaspar, who was a super player and clear best fullback in the comp for a while.
Duncan Kellaway hasn't been mentioned by anyone yet. Hard to ignore the facts that he was asked to play CHB on gorillas like Carey and then tag a superstar midfielder the next. If he could kick, would have been my number 2.

I loved Dunks for his endeavour but he like many others before and after him suffered from RFCKD.
Richmond Football Club Kicking Disease.
Gaspar was great but the end of his career post his knee injury and his last 2 seasons were marred by bad form as a result.
I thought Andrew Kellaway was a very reliable and steady player for us also in an era of little success.

agree smoke, NO way that lamberts brief time would overshadow what Lids has contributed already (2 x B&Fs)

Lids, cotch and dusty to get there eventually

If Campbell was our best player in the last 25 years then no wonder why we have been so pathetic. Has nothing on Knights as a player or captain.

Now this may sound a little crazy but had we 10 or so others in last 20 years that scaled his heights at the level, as in 2 x AA...4 B&F...we'd probably be talkin a dynasty :shh....but nahhhh, sheesh he woz no good :lol
-
Never said he was no good but B&Fs at Richmond have meant nothing for a long time. Dan Jackson was runner up a few years ago. Tambling finished 4th in the same year based on a good 2nd half of the season. Cambo was a good player. Not on Richo's level or Knightas.
-
Oh boy
I never seen Wayne Campbell play a bad game
The rest played some shockers
Who would ever forget Richos last game of the year the day we played Melbourne
Had handful of possessions that basically cost him the Brownlow
And we all forgot the time knights got dropped due to 5 poor games in a row
There will always be Campbell knockers but he never played a bad game
297 games he played
-
He never played a bad game? never? are you stuffing kidding me?
You rate Brad Miller as a gun so I guess this explains your thoughts

Now I know your a troll. "Kick it to me" Campbell never played a bad game, your just asking for people to bite.

was capped twice as an all australian davey, that to me would suggest he was an elite level ::)

Yeah he was a very good player BJ. Richo was AA 3 times. Gaspar would have been a few times as well. So what.
-
Bowden was a two time AA. ::)
Early in his career Campbell was a gun.
As the club under Casey/Frawley started to unfold post 2001, Campbell lost all credibility especially after Knights captaincy fiasco.
The thing that has intrigued me is that although fairly to an extent Campbell is seen as reviled by sections of the RFC faithful yet Bowden who epitomises the failure of the club in terms of the way he played and put himself before the club is seen as inappropriate.
IMHO I would not have Bowden in a top 10 but that's me. Never rated him and never will. Overrated player who was an excellent off field communicator and hence got away with his on field frailties. He had a beautiful left foot kick and silky skills yet rather than use them off half back was happy to accumulate 30-40 possies with short kicks and no penetration but he played well on Jonno Brown a few times and therefore his game style is pardoned for the other duties he performed.
To sum him up a mate (Jake King) is beset upon by 4 Pies yet he stands by with hands on hips and does nothing. Being his last game he could have gone in and helped as any suspension would have been null and void seeing he never played again but he thought of himself as he always has in his footy career. Never set an example for others on field always came out squeaky clean and absolved when the chips were down regardless.

So it's the last 25 years? Weightman should be top 5 for sure

If I may level with you all for a moment, Dookie had to go into surgery recently. Prognosis? Twisted nut. This made Dookie very upset and angry especially on hot days. Dookie say a lot of bad things. But now Dookie better. And nut piping straight again. Head straight too. :)

The above side are the best trades we completed over the 12 odd years under Geish, Spud and Terrys Choc Orange.
What is pleasing is that each player had no impact to AFL football and proved their preceeding clubs decision to de-list them to Richmond via the "something is better than nothing" trading policy.Those fortunate enough to be selected in the December draft are proof that our recruitment dept during this time chose the " kick and hope" recruiting policy not unlike many they picked up in these drafts used through their playing career.
Shane Morrison gets my Captain role for no other reason than being dubbed the "Poor mans Jono Brown" when he arrived. Indeed.

Not good either compared to the Fab 4 who won the flag and add a bloke of similar height in Shaun Hart who won the Norm Smith.
Blokes like King are reasons why we go nowhere b/c people hang their hats on these blokes and believe they are better than what their game actually is and what statistics indicate.
18 stats of quality accuracy penetration that are game defining are better than 18 ordinary stats.
Still a dud Jack. :thumbsup

He was alot better than you give him credit for .we will agree to disagree on this one

No hard feelings Jack not the first or the last time. :thumbsup

Clinton king. Ha ha ha. What a laugh.
When it was windy he blew over. Seriously he may have got the ball but there's no way any team could be a premiership threat with a guy like him in the team. No wonder we have been the laughing stock of the afl. Hilarious

who cares about the last 25 years & who was better than who.
As a team we have been poo so no1 cares. weak forwards lines = weak percentages = no success = its a team & all them teams were poo over all them years.
