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.

loved jeff white, but he can't hold a candle to jimmy

he could certainly hold a candle to jimmy

but no doubt jimmy wins this one


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.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

    Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
