    With some apologies but I always thought Brad was our Corey Mckernan, was capable of so much, and had some truly stellar moments, but when I look at the whole of his career I wanted more. That said a good servant of the club, and I’m not worthy to tie his shoelaces.

    Somehow it seems unfair that Greeny is pitted against Gary Lyon who was one of our greats as Gary could have been even greater if he didn't carry a debilitating back.This cost him his best football in his twilight.  

    However Brad Green was no slouch as a player as he was classy enough. Could play up the ground but was more effective near the goals. Unfortunately captaining a hack side  didn't help his reputation. Kicked 55 goals in 2010 and was stiff not to make all Australian.

    Gary for mine.

    Garry scored more goals, more all aussies, hall of fame and team of the century. He was a dynamic and courageous leader who could be potent in several positions.

    Brad was a champion, durable and dynamic at times but never rose to the levels of Garry.

    Lyon for me.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
