    Jeff whites early career was fantastic,  taking pack marks around the ground.  But 2nd half of career was less.

    Jimma,  by virtue of consistency across his fantastic footy career.

    White was a great ruckman until they changed the rules.

    Jimmy was Jimmy. No contest.

    Stynes for me. White to repechage.

    Jimmy was a great player and the reason I started going for Melbourne.

    Absolutely idolised the man.

    With that said, Jeff White is a massively underrated player in the AFL for the past 20 years.  He's very much overshadowed by the emergence of Cox and Sandilands toward the end of his career, and now with Gawn and Grundy, he doesn't really rate a mention by most.  He was a gun.

     

    Stynes... but I did have to think about it.

    Jeff White was certainly a high jumping ruckman with great agility sometimes punching the ball forward at will also his tapouts to the Mids was   of quality.   He could take a great mark and knew how to kick an important goal as he did against the Bulldogs at the G.     Played with a  shin injury which he carried for a number of years in games. He was our Premier ruckman for 11 seasons You can go on and on. Yes he was underrated in IMO as well.  

    Jimmy Stynes the great man .....I saw that Brownlow  comiing.....seasons before when he started playing some consistent footy as he started to revolutionize the Rucking position..............

    Jeff white was a Great Ruckman  for our club.   However Jimmy was   Great in many ways on and off the ground.

    I don't need to elaborate.    Jimmy 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.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
