Tough one. Could argue for bachar since we gave up nothing to get him, similar to lynch (although big salary) who is the best player of the bunch imo but I’m going to say Prestia. Such a jet and instrumental in all 3 flags, pick 6 was a bargain for him.

Brodders was good even Cameron was good to.I'll say Bachar through he had the whole package on and off the field.I had a soft spot for Dundas to.

Given our recent success probably Prestia or Lynch.

I really liked watching Broderick and Greg Stafford play.

Bachar?
Just in the flag era he is a distant third to Prestia and Lynch

Love Bachar, but the other two are far superior

Could argue we couldn’t have won 2019 or 2020 without lynch. But at the same time Prestia and Houli were so important.

No Lynch , no 2019
That’s FOR SURE

Yes Nathan Brown was the best player in the comp until that horrible broken leg. 34 goals in 10 games. Never the same after that.

Will not forget those 5 goals in the last quarter against Collingwood

I’m gonna go with Maric. Not our best on field performer (although he held his own for a while), but if all accounts are true, he was huge in turning this club around off field. Honestly don’t reckon we’d be here if it wasn’t for him

I'll go with Bachar.

Honour me think Brown. Bachar was a big part of the accepting self and uniqueness in our group which has paved the way for so much success. He is a gem.

Huge part of the cultural change at our Club.

That word again "culture"

In answer to the original question

Ten years ago I  would have said Brodders

But now it’s a toss up between Lynch and Prestia

Agree totally but I will add the Nank was a huge pick up and one of our most important players over our Flag years. If I was forced to pick one I would go for Prestia as he was here for all Flags and if you look at our games won with him or without him it shows a huge difference.
