Not sure on the five
But I do know I’ve got Ian Stewart in there (not yet mentioned)

Didn’t see him play but Captain Blood would be my number 1 ruck
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

Wright - Dyer - Bartlett
Wood - Martin - Bourke

Left out Stewart a triple brownlow medalist and a great player although he only played 78 games for us.
Bartlett i would pick as a small fwd in a full team but imo he remains the best small fwd and rover we have produced.
Some will say wtf Bryan Wood but i thought him a marvelous player and some of his clashes with Kieth Grieg were fantastic.Played in three flags for us and another with essendon for me the best wingman we have had in my life time.
