The problem is and not just between Gary and Gary but every single player is different, they can play the same position but will always play it differently. So yes you can say that this person is better than this if it’s clear but when it comes to the legends of the game they are all equal, you just can’t pick

U serious mate? By far the best in the comp. Another player called buddy franklin is also there. Buddy is the best of this generation. What he can do for a guy that's 2 metres is freaky. Only reason some people say ablett is coz he plays for Geelong and his dad. If buddy was white I'm sure they would give him more credit.

Blokes an absolute gun and has some of the most memorable moments in modern footy (100 goals in a season and the 13 game to name a couple). Both greats that can win a game single handed.

Nice video but these clips could've shown a lot more of his elite midfield work and creativity along with his next-level handballing. It included some but this video is mostly all about his goals. GAJ's balance, skill and footwork is what I remember the most about him. Definitely worth showing his freakish goals but that wasn't what made him the best player in the game. A lot of afl highlights seem to just focus on goals unfortunately.
