It's Farmer then light years, absolute light years.
Even the second place bloke is overstated/rated.
Farmer put the football world on its arse at the start of his career when he kicked 15 goals in a game one day when it was rare for a player to kick more than 3.
He also kicked 23 goals one day. What was Tim Evans' best?
North were outside the top 4 for the majority of Farmer's career in fact in his last season in 1940 Farmer kicked 125 goals and North finished 7th. Sit on that Timmy.
Farmer is the greatest goal kicker in Australian football of all time.

Here is how he ranks:

Farmer. Ken 6.198 goals per game 1st
Hudson. Peter 4.572 goals per game 2nd
Naylor. Bernie 5.306 goals per game 3rd
Lockett. Tony 4.840 goals per game 4th
Robertson. Austin (Jr) 4.724 goals per game 5th
Coventry. Gordon 4.245 goals per game 6th
Dunstall. Jason 4.208 goals per game 7th


You left out George Doig who scored 1103 goals for East Fremantle from 202 games at an average of 5.46.
