And the fact he had a dodgey knee when he left port its a remarkable return for the hawks.

Where would he rank in the Greatest Indigenous of all time rankings?

Would be a top 5 lock for me without thinking too hard.

Maurice Rioli.

Would be good to construct a team.

On the Hawks, they been the surprise packet of 2018?

Still in with a sniff of a top 4 berth. Did anyone have them in their 8, let along (potentially) top 4?

Replace him with Wingard.

I think we've seen quite a few this millennium to fill a few spots in that line up. But gee, it's an impressive list.

Some names for contention off the top of my scone:
Cyril
Mal Michael
Eddie
Buddy
Neon Leon
Jeff Farmer
Varcoe
Wells
Stokes
Troy Cook

They have definitely overachieved but well done to them. I just hope that Cats give them a touch up on the weekend.

Best coach for a long time.

[Arch44]

Probably the best draw the hawks have had for a few years too which has helped.

Has to be tongue in cheek Booney?

[woodublieve12]

You have to be taking the p155 Boon surely???

[Booney]

Nope, I wasn't, but Betts and Rioli take that spot ahead of Wingard anyway.

[JK]

P. Burgoyne, whilst a very good footballer perhaps a tad fortunate to make that team.

Agreed, several modern day players as noted by LM would probably dislodge some of the names listed there. ( Another Wingard could replace )

Add to that several in the initial side I've not heard of lest seen them play, makes it hard to keep them in the side.

His brother would easily replace him now.
Buddy in their easily too at CHF or FF
