Josh is now playing at a level where he just commands the ball and wins almost every contest
Best midfielder we have ever had. Better than Williams, better than Bedford. There I said it.
Probably won't win a brownlow, due to Ablett being so dominant at Gold Coast but he is better at getting the ball and more effective disposal than both those former club champions
Jeez, massive, massive call mate.
Kennedy is a contested animal, yes. Is he the best all round midfielder we have ever had? Not in my book. Goodes at his peak, and Kelly will always be the best two we've seen IMO. I love Joey and what he brings, and he's definitely developed into a fairly all round midfielder, but still think a Goodes at his peak and a Paul Kelly bursting out of packs are the two best I've seen.
LRT. Lord Roberts-Thompson. He may look like the Munster, but looks can be deceiving.
2012 Bloods Premiers.
Get back to me when he's won 3 Brownlows. Bob Skilton is still the best.
He's certainly making a name for himself.
I love him to death (please don't tell Goodesy).
He's an awesome kid who'll finish with a brownlow before he retires.
Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.
I can't wait for the naming of the Swans best team for 125 years! Poor Wazza probably won't even make the short list. Who from the last 5 years and the next 10 years will be in it? Who would drop out? Wrong spot for it & might deserve its own thread but Joey will be there
Skilton played a totally different role, genuine rover. Kennedy is a pure centre man just like Williams and Bedford. Only betterOriginally Posted by aardvark

Goodes is a superstar who is more than just a midfielder.
Well... could be a contender for the best ever from 1982 onwards.
All the way back to 1874 is a little doubtful. Though he's only 25 (?), so who knows... maybe he could be.
Bloke called Kelly was pretty good
I thought I was his number one fan - clearly not! He is an absolute gun but I couldn't go that far.

"Lockett is the best of all time" - Robert Harvey, Darrel Baldock, Nathan Burke, Kevin Bartlett, Bob Skilton
Best I can remember. Incredibly consistent. It his record in finals that stands alone.
Certainly better than Diesel.
It is a shame we cannot see him and PK play together, with Kelly's explosiveness and speed
Superb player. I think of him as a stronger, taller, more skilled version of Brett Kirk.
It remains to be seen if he can develop into the leader of men that Brett Kirk was.
Best ever clearance player....probably.
Best ever midfielder.....no.
Skilton, Kelly and Goodes were all 'midfielders'.
Skiltons record, in a poor side, stands alone.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect... MT
