Mcintosh should have been in the team of the century but not sure what the requirements were to get in !

Whilst he missed the 1971 GF through an injury sustained in the 2nd semi, it was in Round 4 the following year that his career ending knee injury occurred. Terry Waters (Collingwood) fell over his own feet and John tumbled over him.

Teams of the century are a bit silly. No-one can claim to have seen all the players in that period. He is one of the five most skillful Saints players that I have seen, so he is certainly in my best since 1960.
