Almost impossible against Gawn; this is despite his value to the Team across several years - some games and efforts were terrific and thus worthy of praise and recognition.

Moloney was good for a few years but he [censored] me by the end. Grab it in the middle and just smash it on the boot without looking.

Gawn has already outdone him and should have a few years left hopefully

I dreamed last night that Max Gawn decided he would leave the Dees to go elsewhere. If Moloney hadn't done the exact same thing (in real life), I might have considered voting Moloney over Gawn just based on that alone. Reality hits, however, and I must vote Gawn.

I watched the end of the “Miracle on Grass” between Brisbane and Geelong on fox footy the other day, and Moloney was massive in the last quarter. Kicked 2 or 3, and one straight out of the center was classic Moloney.

Still....Gawn easily.

Gawn easily, but I reckon Moloney could’ve been a great for us. I look back at the way the club shot itself in the foot in the Bailey/Neeld period and I can’t help but think about how many careers were adversely affected by it.

Max has been a demon for his whole career so far. All Australian and dominant at times.

Brent was great for us but one dimensional - get it, kick it long. Might have been effective if the team was coached to take advantage but it didn't happen.

Max by far.

Max is a gun and likable character. He’s a superstar of the game and hopefully he’ll retire a premiership captain. He obviously gets my vote.

That said, I think Beamer is a tad underrated on here. When at his peak, he won a BnF and was basically the only competent midfielder we had. Even the likes of Nathan Jones were less capable and willing at the time. Beamer tried to lead at a time when we had no leadership and the club was a disgraceful mess. If he’d had better coaching and stability around him, I think he would’ve wound up far more accomplished and liked. I’ll always be grateful for his efforts, as he was the only one trying most weeks!

I watched that too. Beamer on his day was an animal and gets a tough wrap on here a lot of the time.
