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.
Go Tigers!

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

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.
