Sheehan's top 50 of the last 25 years

[Grimes Times 1,278]

Stynes and Lyon are the only Demons with any kind of claim, but they would be borderline at best given that at least 1/3 of their careers happened outside the period in question. 3 of Jimmy's B&F victories were won in a complete rabble, so they are more a tribute to his consistency than his brilliance.

Neitz finished his career with decent statistics, but was hardly a superstar, and rarely dominated in big games. Most of the players on the list thrived in big games, as the best players should.

As with all of these lists, they are aimed as a conversation starter, not as a definitive list.

It was a 100 game min within the 25 year period but a players whole career was counted towards assessment,

I would agree with the general vibe of the thread - I'd suggest that Stynes, Lyon and even Neitz would sit the 51-100 range.

I am very surprised by the omission of Chris Grant more so than Richardson. Grant was is a very underrated player and a should-have-been Brownlow medalist.

I never listened to Sheehan in the first place.
