    Jeffrey for mine.

    Especially in a team of champs.  Would keep his head straight.

     

    Both had their weak points,  Jeff could lose focus & go MIA ,  Yze could lose desire, from time to time.

    Yze for me....

    14 years opposed to 7 years & with greater consistency over a longer period of time.

    The wiz only because he was a reason to go to watch football.

    Yze was such a reliable presence once you were there   Both deserved games without doubt

    Who had most good years? Id say the Wizard. The ooze was great but had lots of quiet games. The Wiz was just something else.

    Just watched today the 2000 PF. Can't go past Farmer. He wasn't called the wizard for nothing.

    Yze to repechage.

    Farmer for me.

    Farmer was the more enjoyable player to watch of the two but his voluntary departure at the end of 2001 really hurt - considering  it was’t long after his amazing 75 odd goal season in 2000.

     Yze was an absolute class act, had one of the best left foots in the league and polled 17 Brownlow votes in 2002. He gave us 14 seasons of excellence from the wing and half forward flank and thus gets my vote.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
