I have Judd as the best Carlton player I have seen.


Kouta says hi

2022- Real Deal or more of the same? 0.6%
2023- "Raise the Standard" - M. Voss Another year wasted Bar Set
2024-Back to the drawing boardNo excuses, its time
2025-Carlton can win the 2025 AFL Premiership

Pound for pound, Kenny Hunter and Kade Simpson are hard to split, Kenny due to premierships.

To answer the thread question: Extremely highly. Especially if your criterion is to control/turn a game. Which does limit it somewhat to on-ballers.

On that measure:
Crippa.
Juddy.
Dominator.
Jezza.
Big Nick.
Just out of the top 5: Braddles. Diesel. Fitzy. Harmesy. Gordon C.

Forwards:
Sticks.
Jezza again.
Buzz.
Wallsy.
Syd J
Just out of the top 5: Alex Marcou.

Defenders:
Doull.
Southby.
SOS.
Kenny H.
Ragsy.
Just out of the top 5: Swan. Weiters.

Utilities:
Kouta.
Tiger.
Rhys.

And 'what could have been' - Peter Motley.

Wayne Harmes was a star - massive finals performer and heard him in interviews how there was a group of key star players in the late 70s and 80s who made a pact to refuse to lose to the Filth in big finals and said the amount of hatred for them was not like any other team

A tad different these days sadly.
