From an early post worth putting back up for this topic. Best recycled players that had to have played at least one game for another VFL/AFL team before being traded to the Dees since our last Premiership. 

 

So good, it makes you shake. What a line-up. A few missing out are just unlucky that the talent ladel was full...

As great as Clarkson is as a coach, surely we can come up with a better player!

Great team - it must be remembered that in his role, Clarkson was close to elite. A very good footballer - we needed him at the time and he delivered.

Hardly elie, old boy, hardly elite at all....He was, like Luke Beveridge and Tom Hafey, just a player...

With the recent additions of players like Langdon, Tomlinson, May, Hibberd & Melksham, I was thinking about our best (top 10) traded in or recycled players. Here’s a quick top 10 but in no order. 
 

Brett Lovett

Jeff Farmer

Brian Wilson

Jeff White

Peter Moore

Laurie Fowler

Garry Baker

Peter Rohde 

Darren Bennett

Carl Ditterich

My apologies to Stephen Icke, Alan Jarrett, Clint Bizzell, Guy Rigoni, Bernie Vince & Brent Moloney.  
 

My eligibility was min 50 games and I can only cover from 1973 onwards.  

 

 

 

Brian Wilson starred with us. Must have been a good environment at the time.

Clarko was never elite but a top class role player who suited our team at the time.

Guess that was when he learned to find and use role players in his recruiting for his coaching career.

How we ever let Kevin Dyson go I'll never know!!? hard nosed midfielder with a touch of class and a thumping kick.

I'm quite surprised no-one has mentioned Bernie Vince.

Mea culpa. And an apology to Bucket List. Mind you, if I'm a player, I'm not sure I want to be on something with the name "Bucket List". Would makes me feel a bit too mortal.
