Oh dear...where do I start

1. Wayne Carey
2. Johnathon Brown
3......

Tredrea- never liked the bloke (as a player), but was certainly a footballer who commanded respect on the field...

Hooray !! Common sense prevails.

Well done on a good career Warren. A real force to reckon with. Always gave Carlton plenty of headaches....

You want to start with Carey circa 200-2004?

Missed 2002 altogether and in Crows colours 2003-4

Think Tredders shaded Carey in that time (not overall)

Brown really hit his straps in 2004 but wasn't at an elite level 2001 (debut) - 2003

Who else? Tredrea was all-Australian each year from 2001-2004. I think the AA selectors agreed with Booney. AFL Coaches Association 'Champion Player of the Year' Award: 2004 and AFL Players Association 'Champion Player of the Year' Award: 2003 (3rd place), 2004 (3rd place).

I think it's easy to forget the high level he was at in those years, 6 years on.

Has been a champion power player, and for a number of years there was one of the best power forwards in the competition .. Has forged an outstanding career and been a great club man for Port.

Or maybe not. He was AA CHF, he was CHF in a team playing in Prelim finals. Its a matter of persoanl opinion and I am sticking to mine.

Well done Tredders on a fantastic career. It's unfortunate that is has to end like it has. One a the great Port Adelaide players and a great CHF. Now comes the hard part Port has to find their next CHF......

LOL - the first thing I thought of when I heard of Tredders impending retirement was "I bet Wedgie posts the pic of Chapman on his back".

:lol:

Almost on que, that was the next comment I was waiting on.

I'd say losing a GF by 20 goals is fairly embarassing myself.....or a Prelim by 87. :lol:
