I think he's very good but I wouldn't call Raph a champion.
No he is average. Johno is a champion player. Sorry cant say that about the opposition. He is a hack afterall hasnt played in a premiership side.
you reckon ? i think the "champion player tag gets flogged abbout too much .. Johno isnt a champion player in my books hes a good player but you wouldnt put him in the same crowd as saw Hird Voss Bucks Harves Mcleod Ablett Crawford ... i would have Johno in with the likes of Bell Lappin Richo Embly Burke ...
I'm with you, good player, but the main thing that'll get him in the Hall of Fame is longevity. He played much of his career at a time when the Dogs weren't much chop and, then, where would you rate him on a list of top Dogs of his era with Grant, West, Rohan Smith and Libbers? Closer to 5th
than 1st IMO.
