@J G You say soccer is "massive in over 240 countries", but right now there's just 195 countries in the entire world! Just 195. If you can't even get that easily-found fact close to right, why would anyone take seriously anything else you've written?
@J G Why are you here if afl isn't your thing? No-one's stopping you from watching soccer-so off you go and watch it. And remember not to blink during the game-you might miss all the scoring!
Ablett's goal at 2:15 against the Pies where he fights off Kelly, busts through a tackle and puts it through post high in the wet is one of the best goals I've ever seen.
ask greg williams whos the most powerful players his ever seen its ablett, they donne a training drill throwing 8kg medicine ball ablett threw it 4 metres further than anyone and that includes damian bourke who was twice the size of him he was a freak
As a cats supporter that 1994 prelim final was possibly the best game I've ever been to. Yes the Cats won because Ablett marked after the siren, but main reason was Carey was pretty much uncontrollable most of the game and the win was so unexpected. Two almost perfect players, two imperfect people. I don't think anyone can be a perfect person AND a perfect player.
Kinda like asking you to pick a favourite child. Ablett is the best footballer I've seen in my lifetime (I'm 53) his final series in 1989 was the greatest three weeks I've ever seen one player put together, he was an unbelievably skilled footballer. Wayne Carey is that close to Ablett it's a whisker in it. Watching North on a Friday night was compulsory viewing in the 1990's, King Carey ruled in those days. Two absolute guns who were the pre-eminent players of their generation. Highlights package of these two would go for two weeks. The goal Ablett kicked against West Coast where he scoops it up at full speed was one of the great under appreciated goals of all time in my opinion. In the same game he balked right and left Michael Brennan grasping thin air and kicked it from 50 on his left. I will never forget those two goals as an Eagles fan.
Gary Ablett Sr was an absolute genius. He was hard, freakish, could kick a ball 50m either side of his body, punch a torp 60m into the breeze on the run (and it is rumoured he did this on the left, but I never saw that), leap higher than any ruckman of any era, outmuscle the strongest full backs and take one-arm speccies, run into a congested pack and come out with the ball, deliver a bump so hard that it could puncture the lungs of bearded giants, outsprint (in the 1980s at least) 90% of the competition, snap a goal from over his shoulder (again either side) from any pocket.... what else, need I go on? There is evidence of all of this.... look at the highlights. The guy simply was the most talented player going around, he was a footballing superman! This does not mean he was the best full forward, or the best wing, or the greatest half forward.... he transcended positions to a great extent and that in itself is his greatest attribute. To argue that any other player had these abilities is fruitless. I haven't seen 150 years of football, so sure I don't know, and yes there are better players in individual aspects.... but simply put: Ablett Sr was the package. Add to this, he played in a fairly tough era where umpire intervention was minimal - eg. defenders were allowed to scrag and chop - and you may come to an appreciation of the guy's abilities. If you really want to compare him to modern day stars, well then there is no comparison. Franklin can't take a pack mark nor use the other side of his body and to tell the truth doesn't put his head over it that much, Riewoldt has no distance on his kicks and just doesn't have awareness, Brown is bloody good at his best but again although having the courage and Careyesque stature, the freakish side of his game is not there. Pavlich at the very top of his game can do some pretty special things, and is actually quite similar to Ablett Sr as a package - it's just that he is about 80% of that full package! Comparing to stars of yesteryear, Mr Football was a tough as guts CHB but rarely went elsewhere, Leigh Matthews was just round ball tough, but certainly didn't have the skills of Ablett Sr (although he more than made up for it with his tenacity), Coleman didn't play the game long enough. I won't go on too long.... never really saw these players anyways. Ablett Sr without a doubt is the most talented footballer, certainly that I have seen. Again, he just had the whole package, abilities in every conceivable area. It does not mean he was the most valuable player to a team, but Captain Farking Obvious would have to agree that there has not been another player since who consistently displays these all-round abilities.
youve got no argument from me finally someone with an abundance of knowlege and brains carey is still at the start line when abletts crossing the finish line thats how big the gap is to any other player in history that includs matthews farmer whitten jezza skilton barassi colman and any other name ya wanna throw up
Realising only now, how privileged I was being on the outer at Kadinia Park from around 1987-1996 watching Gaz. After he retired, I had a recurring dream of him coming out of retirement, only to wake up and realise that a 40 or 50-something-old Gaz was disappointingly still retired. Oddly decades on, we've never seen anything like him.
Absolute superstar of the AFL…doubt there will be another like him or anywhere near the natural ability. Check to see how many times he used his hands to climb for those monster marks…get back to me if you find once. Many great players to be admired with different strengths over the years…but Gary Ablett Snr was consistently magical…thanks for the memories
@@danielboeren7715 how ? abblet could not play away from the goal square carey was far more complete in many aspects of the game and around the ground give me a break
@@Megalosmalakas1977 shows how much you know as ablett only played 3 years of his career at full forward and he stared on the wing then half forward clearly the superior player just look at his highlights package way better than careys and way longer i aint gonna argue cos everyone is entitled to there opinion! so please save your oxygen
Defenders playing on Ablett would just drop their heads after he'd kicked 5 or more on them and they realised there was simply nothing they could do about it. That usually happened before half time. It was hugely entertaining to watch. The ground would be abuzz.
who's better? WHO CARES!!!!......i'm just thank full i was able to watch these two incredible players perform as they did back in the day. Watching today's football is beyond LAME! I cant even watch it anymore.........the AFL has screwed up a great game.
Ablett, 24 less games than Wayne Carey, yet kicked 300 more goals, that stat alone should tell you, but all the same, having not seen a lot of these Carey highlights he was a marvel here, great to watch...two champions...go the Catters!
not an argument i wanted to see not everthing is about goals mate peter hudson kicked 727 in only 130 and had a greater average of 5.64 per game abletts average is only 4.15 so your making ablett look shit by saying this cos hudson is not better than ablett
1030 goals and Ablett only played about 3-4 seasons at key forward - shouldn't have compared these two as if they were equals. They don't call him God for nothing.
Great to see both these players, both were great. Todays football doesn't have these types of power players with enormous skills, just guys who can run fast.
I'm not a fan of either team and both are different styles of players. But in my opinion Ablett was the better of the two players, more agile, a high flyer, and tremendous when the chips are down.
ablett had the agility power and skills on the deck but he was also an incredible mark. how do you beat that one on one. need a freak athlete to do it.
Carey overall was the best player ever to play Aussie rules he could turn a game in a matter of minutes when all seemed lost, how he never won a Brownlow has both me and thousands amazed you didn't have to be a North Melbourne supporter to be amazed at the talent this man had and what a joy he was to watch play.
Gary just, played wing and half forward for first 10 years then went to full forward and kick 100+ 3 years in a row. Carey and Ablett best 2 players I've seen though.
All comes down to what you want to see as a fan. These are the 2 greatest forwards I’ve ever seen. If you want a player to get people to watch football and sheer excitement, Ablett is no. 1 but if you want your team to win, Carey for his dominance and leadership
The greatest forward of all time vs one that wouldnt make a lot of people top 10. No debate here. Nothing against Carey he was amazing. But there's an undeniable gap between how good they were. Ablett's lack of accolades are almost a kick in the face to how incredible he was. Should of been a premiership player, brownlow medalist and half a dozen more best and fairests. 10 goals in a losing game for 0 brownlow votes. It will be a great day when only midfielders arent considered for the brownlow cause its just in my opinion rigged to all shit.
Look Ye I've been watching footy my whole life and Gary ablt snr and Carey r the best footballers I've ever seen in my life and I hope someday I can be like either one of them or Matty Lyoid he was also a freak bc at the moment I'm kicking at least three goals I'm my league and I'm only thirteen
Too much to take into consideration to make them 1 and 2. The days of pagans paddock where Carey would be against two defenders and still muscle them out and kick a bag of goals. Then the freakishness off God. He could kick snap dribble a goal from anywhere in the 50. Either way they’re both going down in history as two of the best to strap on boots and play the game. Also throw in the mix Dunstall, Locket and Boomer. Anyways it was a good highlight package. I enjoyed the trip down memory lane.
Both were amazing and we were blessed to see them play in the same era. Gazza was the most exciting player however if you were putting together the greatest team of all time Kezza would be your first pick every time! He is the best leader and most inspirational captain i've ever seen.
Haha you would have both as Gazza never played in centre half forward, Gazza played wing and forward flank before being the best full forward to watch the game has seen and he still kicked kicked over 1000 goals.
Jon Burrows, some people just don’t let go, that was 20 odd years ago, you need to move on pal, clearly everyone else has otherwise you wouldn’t see his head on the tv or hear him on the radio..... Yeah I get that might be a little hypocritical so what 😂
All the Brownlows pretty much go to midfielders,no offence but a few of them hardly anyone remembers or talks about.Shane Woewoden,Mitchell from Hawthorn,Cooney, and many others.The Carey's,and Albetts of this world are the type of guys that are household names and get legendary status
Two Cats/Kangaroos/AFL legends I know the debate like many others is who was/is better?.Personally for me can't split obviously grew up watching both play two champions.
Carey was great but there was something very special about gary ablett snr. Gary ablett snr is the 2nd best player to ever play this game followed by one tony lockett 😉
ya wrong ablett played wing for a fair chunk of his career and only played full forward for the last 3 years of his career he played mostly half forward and is by far the greatest player the game has ever seen with daylight second and no one will ever convince me otherwise debate over i cant play any other players highlight reel longer than gary ablett's and no other player has bought a crowd through a gate more than he end of fucking story
what a silly argument one player doesnt win ya a premiership ya flog where is whayne carey's 3 coleman medals with dunstall and locket playing at the same time where is careys norm smith playing in a losing side he didnt even win one playing in a winning side ablett is better than carey even more than he is better than matthews your football knowledge is terrible
Don Derply silvagni kept him goalless in 95 grand final. Silvagni conceded one goal that entire finals series. He played on Carey, Ablett and some other bloke. The other guy that I can’t remember kicked 1 on him.
in finals ? i think you need your head check and do more research on careys finals performances you do realize north played in 7 preliminary finals in a row do you ???? your so clules delete your comment goose
The reality is ablett had the single greatest finals series ever. 1989. Highest level of football ever played. Ok series in 92. Then two below pars in 94 & 95. Carey was solid across all his without being as brilliant as abletts 89 but not having the lows of abletts 94 & 95. Probably a draw in the end.
Gazza. No question. Remember he didn't go forward until Blight suggested he did. Played a lot of his career on the wing and still kicked over 1000. Kicked 14 in a game three times. Best ever, although his son is giving him a shake.
ABLETT WAS A BETTER PLAYER . 1.MARKING- FAIRLY EVEN, 2.PACE - ABLETT, 3.KICKING -ABLETT BOTH SIDES 4.GOAL KICKING-ABLETT 5.LEADERSHIP -CAREY 6.FREAKISH ABILITY-ABLETT 7.STATS- ABLETT 8.MEDALS- CAREY 9.STATE OF ORIGIN PERFORMANCE -ABLETT. ABLETT COULD PLAY IN THE MIDDLE , WING, FORWRD .CAREY HF OR FF ONLY. ABLETT IS IN TEAM OF THE CENTURY ALSO.
I just replied to the positions Ablett played and you don't even have an answer to your previous comment cause you talk shit ! Your theory about positions can be proved wrong by facts . As for Mike Sheehan , his opinion doesn't count as many other experts rate Ablett the best . So really your points are of no substance , now fuck off , and go somewhere else to play .
+shaxxxa No more time waisting on you , your too fucked up , your points have no truth to them . Ive waisted enough time on you , your too dumb , good luck with your life your going to need it
your wrong ya tosser you know nothing ablett started on the wing then half forward then full forward for the last 4 years of his career and medals mean nothing brownlows b&f' alpha awards leigh mattews trophy generally go to midfielders that a known fact more ppl use to pay just to watch abelett more than any other player in history his highlight reel is longer and better than any other the game has seen his the only player in history to get 10 goals or more 6 times in a season and there sides lost no other players feats will ever match what he achieved on the footy field not even jnr who i rate 2nd best ever
By reading the comments below it just proves that some never saw Gary Ablett Snr play. To say Ablett was a full forward majority of his career where Carey could play all over the ground is utter nonsense. Also many "champion" players never won a premiership medal.
Carey because not only was he was a great player, but he was also a great leader and played well when it counted, but for sheer ability and freakishness there has never been a player than Ablett Sr.It's a disgrace that neither ever won a Brownlow.
CHF the hardest position in AFL and no one comes close to Carey Ablett was great but really was only a shortish kick was awarded some marks that really were no where near being a mark but got a lot of accolades. Carey was not looked after by the umps "big mouth" and did a lot more as a real all skilled AFL Champ. SO NO Question The Duck Is King.
Ablett could do things no one else can do. He was unbelievable.
damn straight
Ablett was the best player of the the Sport has ever seen, it was a joy growing up and seeing AFL at its best early 1990s
@J G Strange rant in an AFL thread.
@J G It's called 'Football'.

And that’s not even talking about his afl career
The ball would just do weird, amazing, physics defying things when Ablett was near. I never saw that before him and I haven't seen it since.
Ablett's goal at 2:15 against the Pies where he fights off Kelly, busts through a tackle and puts it through post high in the wet is one of the best goals I've ever seen.

Tough one - I'd say Ablett made me go "WOW" a few times more often tho...
Gazza was the best. Played as a half forward and moved full forward when he was in his 30s. Kicked a ton in 14 games. Gazza drew a crowd.

Each game
I kicked 13 goals in a final and I’m 13 too
Great decoy work by Brownless 😂
Ask anybody that knows anything about football, which is the hardest position to play, and there is the answer, funny though NO BROWNLOWS
Ohh Yaaaabbbleeeeeeeettttt!
Carey was a star, Ablett was a galaxy.
Great analogy
As Rex Hunt used to yell out: Aaaaaabbbbletttttttttttt!!!!!!
SNR Handsdown.!!
Too much to take into consideration to make them 1 and 2.
The days of pagans paddock where Carey would be against two defenders and still muscle them out and kick a bag of goals.
Then the freakishness off God. He could kick snap dribble a goal from anywhere in the 50.
Either way they’re both going down in history as two of the best to strap on boots and play the game.
Also throw in the mix Dunstall, Locket and Boomer.

Doc Vids you again hahaha. Mate Snr is 10 times better than jnr, your not very educated
@doc your not wrong. Probably never saw snr play.
Your Nan my opinion
Both absolute champions, but anybody who watched the game closely enough knows that Carey is number 1
naw Snr could kick on both sides of his body was capable of playing back forward or in the midfield whilst taking hangers and laying blokes out

All the Brownlows pretty much go to midfielders,no offence but a few of them hardly anyone remembers or talks about.Shane Woewoden,Mitchell from Hawthorn,Cooney, and many others.The Carey's,and Albetts of this world are the type of guys that are household names and get legendary status
Carey
don't tell me DON'T TELL ME
Two Cats/Kangaroos/AFL legends I know the debate like many others is who was/is better?.Personally for me can't split obviously grew up watching both play two champions.
Wayne Carey by the slight margin.
Gaz!
Carey was great but there was something very special about gary ablett snr. Gary ablett snr is the 2nd best player to ever play this game followed by one tony lockett 😉
Gary Ablett clearly is the greatest player of all time!
+AFFTL Careyyyyyyyyyy is better 2 premiership
AFFTL besides E.J Whitten
So Who Is? Clearly you seen them all Time Traveler?
ya wrong ablett played wing for a fair chunk of his career and only played full forward for the last 3 years of his career he played mostly half forward and is by far the greatest player the game has ever seen with daylight second and no one will ever convince me otherwise debate over i cant play any other players highlight reel longer than gary ablett's and no other player has bought a crowd through a gate more than he end of fucking story
what a silly argument one player doesnt win ya a premiership ya flog where is whayne carey's 3 coleman medals with dunstall and locket playing at the same time where is careys norm smith playing in a losing side he didnt even win one playing in a winning side ablett is better than carey even more than he is better than matthews your football knowledge is terrible
Ablett by far , lots of great comments here for Carey, but Ablett head and shoulders above every other modern day player
No players before ?
Carey had a tendancy to go missing in big games and Grand Finals, Ablett might be the best big game performer of all time
Don Derply silvagni kept him goalless in 95 grand final. Silvagni conceded one goal that entire finals series. He played on Carey, Ablett and some other bloke. The other guy that I can’t remember kicked 1 on him.
Ducked into the bathroom maybe..
in finals ? i think you need your head check and do more research on careys finals performances you do realize north played in 7 preliminary finals in a row do you ???? your so clules delete your comment goose
The reality is ablett had the single greatest finals series ever. 1989. Highest level of football ever played. Ok series in 92. Then two below pars in 94 & 95. Carey was solid across all his without being as brilliant as abletts 89 but not having the lows of abletts 94 & 95. Probably a draw in the end.
Wayne Carey 10 letters in name Gary Ablett 10 letters in name
Ablett
Gazza. No question. Remember he didn't go forward until Blight suggested he did. Played a lot of his career on the wing and still kicked over 1000. Kicked 14 in a game three times. Best ever, although his son is giving him a shake.
Gary Ablett Snr 4me is the Gr8test VFL/AFL Player of All Time ⏲️
Don't believe that Cary deserves even 2nd Spot .
whayne carey aint even in the argument as best ever
All else being equal (which it’s not) Carey was a grub for doing what he did, it’s about off the field antics as well.
Have you heard of alisha Horan
@@crutches111 Ablett was retired, what he did as a private person post career is his business. Not the same thing!
ABLETT WAS A BETTER PLAYER . 1.MARKING- FAIRLY EVEN, 2.PACE - ABLETT, 3.KICKING -ABLETT BOTH SIDES 4.GOAL KICKING-ABLETT 5.LEADERSHIP -CAREY
6.FREAKISH ABILITY-ABLETT 7.STATS- ABLETT 8.MEDALS- CAREY 9.STATE OF ORIGIN PERFORMANCE -ABLETT. ABLETT COULD PLAY IN THE MIDDLE , WING, FORWRD .CAREY HF OR FF ONLY. ABLETT IS IN TEAM OF THE CENTURY ALSO.
You have no fucking idea what your talking about.. That is the worst logic ever. Carey played all over the ground while Ablett never left the forward.
I just replied to the positions Ablett played and you don't even have an answer to your previous comment cause you talk shit ! Your theory about positions can be proved wrong by facts . As for Mike Sheehan , his opinion doesn't count as many other experts rate Ablett the best . So really your points are of no substance , now fuck off , and go somewhere else to play .
+shaxxxa No more time waisting on you , your too fucked up , your points have no truth to them . Ive waisted enough time on you , your too dumb , good luck with your life your going to need it
Who gives a fucking shit what Mike Sheahan proclaims? Ablett clearly far greater than Carey as a player, man on man.
your wrong ya tosser you know nothing ablett started on the wing then half forward then full forward for the last 4 years of his career and medals mean nothing brownlows b&f' alpha awards leigh mattews trophy generally go to midfielders that a known fact more ppl use to pay just to watch abelett more than any other player in history his highlight reel is longer and better than any other the game has seen his the only player in history to get 10 goals or more 6 times in a season and there sides lost no other players feats will ever match what he achieved on the footy field not even jnr who i rate 2nd best ever
Mate Melbourne demon player Sean Charles tackled Gazza
Alert easily won!!!!
By reading the comments below it just proves that some never saw Gary Ablett Snr play. To say Ablett was a full forward majority of his career where Carey could play all over the ground is utter nonsense. Also many "champion" players never won a premiership medal.
ablett loved the goal square carey loved the footy oval
@@Megalosmalakas1977 You know zero about sport let alone what Ablett and Carey did on the footy field.
Carey because not only was he was a great player, but he was also a great leader and played well when it counted, but for sheer ability and freakishness there has never been a player than Ablett Sr.It's a disgrace that neither ever won a Brownlow.
Lol a great leader doesn't go and fuck a team mates wife
Carey won two premierships. He wins.
Pay to watch: Ablett.. To Win You a Game: Carey
Carey was good. Ablett was spectacular. Peter
CHF the hardest position in AFL and no one comes close to Carey Ablett was great but really was only a shortish kick was awarded some marks that really were no where near being a mark but got a lot of accolades. Carey was not looked after by the umps "big mouth" and did a lot more as a real all skilled AFL Champ. SO NO Question The Duck Is King.
Shortish kicks?
Do you call 60m short?
Did you ever see Gary kick those kicks he did on the run obviously not
Shortish kicks 😂😂😂what planet are you on! Arguably the biggest kick of all time.
