This is half true.
JD already had 5 or 6 when Ablett was moved onto him in the last quarter, game was down at Geelong.

Maybe. Depends. He's certainly not the first AFL Legend to also be in the Queensland Football Hall of Fame.
This might call for a riveting "Which state is Leigh Matthews most associated with?" thread.

I’ll save you the time of making a thread, Leigh Matthews is unequivocally a Victorian.
And proper momentum through the ball. Him and SNR (and others I'm sure) were amazing in that regard. Distance an absolute non factor for them and that included windswept suburban grounds.

But not save me from reading a boring response to a rhetorical question.

Cant imagine why a noted full forward wouldn’t approach a job at full back with 110% enthusiasm?

Yeah I remember vaguely…that by then he had investments in commercial Melbourne properties (that pub on bridge rd Richmond) and real estate etc
He knew what he was doing and stayed in Melbourne with an eye for a post career in the media for extra income

It’s not a rhetorical question. It’s a stupid, pointless post on your behalf.
Mathews was from the Mornington peninsula.
What else would you be implying?

The implication is that Jason Dunstall is indeed the first Queenslander to be named an AFL Legend, because the next best candidate would be a guy who (despite being in the QLD HoF) is from another state.
Simple post with a clear point which only a stupid person could miss.
Oh, and the other implication is that "who is x associated with" threads (like the one started about Leigh Matthews last week) are boring!
Quietly spoken, no nonsense winger, with a massive tank and sublime skills. Lace out in front of your face type of kicker. The Hawk forwards loved him.
Dunstall has spoken glowingly of him over the years.

Queenslander, grew up a Carlton supporter. It all fits
Never seen both chiefs in same room together
