Hi guys I really enjoyed seeing the results for jimboiitmac thread Ozcards Top 10 Players in the NBA Thread and hingey242's OZcards Top 10 NBA Players of ALL TIME.
So I thought it would be interesting if we do a top 10 AFL Players of ALL TIME name your top 10 in order and I will keep a posted score on the first post thanks.

I'll start it off:

1. Gary Ablett Snr
2. Leigh Matthews
3. Wayne Carey
4. Tony Lockett
5. Ted Whitten
6. Graham Farmer
7. Jason Dunstall
8. John Nicholls
9. Kevin Bartlett
10. Greg Williams

THE LIST:

1. Leigh Matthews 70pts
2. Gary Ablett Snr 68pts
3. Wayne Carey 56pts
4. Tony Lockett 47pts
5. Graham Farmer 36pts
6. James Hird 31pts
7. Ted Whitten 29pts
8. Ron Barassi 26pts
9. Jason Dunstall 23pts
10. John Coleman 22pts

Just missed the cut:

11. Bob Skilton 12pts
12. Haydon Bunton Snr 10pts
13. Chris Judd 10pts
14. Greg Williams 8pts
25. John Nicholls 8pts
16. Ian Stewart 7pts
17. Kevin Bartlett 5pts
18. Gordon Conventry 4pts
19. Michael Voss 4pts
20. Michael Tuck 3pts
21. Peter Matera 1pt
 
This is a bit tough as there are a lot of great players that I have only heard of in reputation and never seen play...so I will tend to rate the players I've seen play higher than ones on reputation.

1. Garry Ablett Sr
2. Leigh Matthews
3. John Coleman
4. James Hird
5. Ted Whitten
6. Polly Farmer
7. Wayne Carey
8. Dick Reynolds
9. Tony Lockett
10. Kevin Bartlett

I know I well get some flack about this, especially Hird, but he is the best player I have seen the FULL career of. As great as Plugger was, I will always have the vision of that failed comeback in my head.

You did well Liam, I know my Club bias has come out, probably because I am more aware of the players from my club, But the 2 Geelong players you put in really should appear in every Top 10. Ablett was just a freak of nature, best player I have ever seen...(not even close) and Polly changed the game of football with the way he used handball.

TOp ten current players would be a good list to do, and probably easier to put together.
