    I know, but in doing so I'm acknowledging his coaching too (even though I know this is about players). Maybe we should have a poll for best coach.

          Since 1986. Memorable moments

          1. Kelly - Goal against Kangaroos in 40 pt comeback, Heart and soul of the club
          2. Lockett - 1300th and 96 Prelim,
          3. Williams - Overall incredible footy smarts
          4. Goodes - 2003 Semi v Port, 2 Brownlows
          5. Wright - Took apart Carlton in 86 I think (My first taste of AFL footy)
          6. Healey - Just remember his incredible skill
          7. Hall - "Captains" Goal in GF win
          8. Magic - Name says it all really.
          9. Cresswell - Incredible Toughness (Geelong Kneecap incident)
          10. Roos - BOG in his 300th thrashing the Kangaroos in 96
          ..And the Swans are the Premiers...The Ultimate Team...The Ultimate Warriors. They have overcome the highly fancied Hawks in brilliant style. Sydney the 2012 Premiers - Gerard Whately ABC

                * A few Brownlows on there
                Pretty close to what I would have said, except I would replace Bedford with Healy. So my top 10 in no particular order would be
                1 Bobby Skilton
                2 Paul Kelly
                3 Barry Round

                6 Gerard Healy
                7 John Rantall
                8 Ricky Quade
                9 Adam Goodes
                10 Greg Williams

                Number 11 would be Brian "The Whale" Roberts, who came second in the Brownlow whilst playing only 17 games in his one season for the Swans. A genuinely nice bloke too. I was at the footy at the Lake Oval with a friend and got his autograph. My friend said it was the only time she has ever thought that I looked small next to anyone, he was huge in height and weight.

                    Kelly
                    Lockett
                    Goodes

                    Cresswell
                    Grant

                    What the hell, i'll throw Shannon Grant into the mix seeing as no one else has given him a mention. Was awesome for us in the time he was here.

                      We are all entitled to our opinion but not in a million years could Round or Quade be rated better than Bedford. Quade was lamentably poorly skilled and couldn't kick over a jam tin and Round was a great trier and clubman but not a great footballer.

                        Quade though was a very tough & gutsy player that played with heart.
                        In relation to Round you'd be hard pressed finding a better mark - Remember the ball always looking like it was getting stuck in his great mits everytime he put his hands up for a mark. Remember he was also relatively short as a Ruckman being 193cm in height.

                          My Top 10 I've actually seen play live. It was tougher than I thought it would be (in no order except spot 1).

                          5. Adam Goodes
                          6. Greg Williams
                          7. Paul Williams
                          8. Michael O'Loughlin
                          9. Stevie Wright
                          10. Darren Creswell

                          Special menton to Minton-Connell - very lean years but he kicked some goals and gave me something to cheer.
