The fact that Ablett Sr was maybe the best player of all time and then he had a son that rivals him for that spot is wild

[@leighmurrell5494]

Arguably the best AFL player ever.

[@achebwahs1111]

We were teenagers who played Aussie Rules when Ablett was playing and although none of us were supporters of Gary's team the Cats, we would catch the train into the city just to watch him play. He was unbelievable. He'd never let you down. The GOAT in my book

[@RealFansSports]

That’s the signs of a special player! Bet it was amazing to see in person.

[@wayback479]

His nickname was God , that says it all . Every time the ball went into his area the anticipation of something special was about to happen and it usually did. Played mostly of his earlier career on the wing or half forward. Later he slotted in at full forward where he kicked multiple 100 goal seasons . I am definitely lucky to have been alive to witness this man play the game 😊

[@markkelly3597]

Gary snr is the most skilled player I've ever seen. He has attracted a crowd like no other player in the game

[@RealFansSports]

He definitely seemed like he was another level too.

[@Il-bebbux]

The G.O.A.T. Definitely the best player I have and will ever see with my own eyes

[@matthewcharles5867]

One of the most talented football players of any era. Was also more then capable of a hip n shoulder that would have opposing players seeing stars. Quite a showman in a time when there were a lot of great full forwards around.

[@johnmcdonald8943]

I was at most home games in that era at Geelong, every time it came near Ablett, we expected an awesome mark and goal. We did a lot of shouting back then.

[@tonyde6423]

Watched him live guy was a machine cheers ✌

[@thomask6681]

He is and will always be the GOAT. I don't follow that team but have never seen anyone better.

[@daft_ss6917]

he played 248 games between 1982 to 1997 and kicked 1031 goals, i started playing football back in the 80's in a small town not far from Geelong, the city that the team Gary played for was based, every time they had a home game they would send out players to help coach us then alot of the time we would travel in to watch them play, nothing beter than watching him live at there home ground, the last time i saw him play live was 1995 against Sydney at the SCG,

[@RealFansSports]

Wow! What an experience that had to of been!

[@user-jp1vn6tk2h]

Zach and Non G.A senior nickname was God one of if not the best ever to play AFL . That is an amazing man you now need to see Gary Ablet junior he is in the same league as his father

[@Il-bebbux]

No one in the history of AFL is in the same league as senior he was a different level, Junior was great but not as good as his dad GO THE MIGHTY CATTERS

[@Slapfunk79]

70 metres is 76.5 yards. According to legend he also rarely turned up to training.

[@musicalneptunian]

Also bear in mind that in Gary Ablett's era the rules were a LOT more favorable to the defender. The defender could use both arms to restrain someone's arms well before the ball got near; that is not allowed today. As people in my family often say, if you took the great goal scorers of that era and put them into today they would score 100 more goals.

[@runnynose8341]

His son was just as good

[@AndyFNQ84]

I'm not a Geelong fan, but his 1993 season was the best year of footy I have ever seen anyone play. He was absolutely unstroppable that year

[@shmick6079]

Gary Snr was slightly before my time, but I remember him in the last few years of his career when I was just starting to get into footy as a kid. He was absolutely a fan favourite. When the neighbourhood kids played footy out in the street, everyone wanted to be Ablett or Peter Daicos. Both insanely skilled with astonishing highlight reels, especially for that time (early 1990s). Gary Ablett Junior is actually the best player that I ever saw, but based on those highlights the old man is right up there with him.

[@travelwithroland2]

His son was not bad also… possibly better… but a different position. His name was Gary too!

[@user-hf3vy3hu7i]

If you want to know how good he was, look at his statistics. Played 248 games between 1982 and 1996 plus 11 for his State. Kicked 1031`goals, 3 times more than 100 in a season, 3 times 14 in a game. His accuracy was 82%. He stood 6 ft. 1 and weighed 215 lbs. ..... for you yanks, 185 and 97 kg. for everyone else. He was one of the slowest runners in his team but made up for it in anticipation and skills He played in an era where there were 3 outstanding full forwards who all kicked > 1000 goals or > 100 in a season .... what made him different was that he had several team mates that were also high goal scorers and not just the sole target up forward for his team.

[@tonyde6423]

Watch his son Gary junior just as good

[@travelwithroland2]

I was there at the match when he kicked 14 goals, but we still lost because on of their players kicked 9. It was against Essendon.

[@DawnPossession]

The best to ever do it period

[@Oracle550]

He was fast,tough could mark and kick goals from anywhere,left or right foot,defenders worst nightmare

[@Dogrockdog]

His son ( jr ) Was a champ too. When confused by the colours of the jumper ( guernsey ) . The different coloured shorts are the difference. Home ground are darker shorts. Hope that helps. Watch a close game without results known for you to understand the actual thrill. Go blues. We haven’t won a GF since 95.

[@dylans2376]

You need to check out Wayne Carey. Superstar

[@malchatterton597]

Will try a comparison. MJordan and GAblett began about same time. From start MJ had tricks others could only dream of having. Had a team built for him. GA same but no team built for him. GA skills didnt fade in bad weather like others. Still ran, kicked as if it was dry. Easily most freakish ever. That leap where he landed hard was in last 5 mins of game and he was 35yo.

[@jsegal8385]

Ablett was one of the best AND he was spectacular doing it. In the 1989 Grand Finale his team lost but he still kicked 9 goals. That is remarkable. He kicked 1031 goals over his career. But to put that in perspective Tony Lockett kicked 1360 goals in total in the same era. He holds the goal kicking record. He was so good at it he often had two opponents assigned him. Also he missed a full season due to being suspended for hitting people all the time. He was feared. Not spectacular like Ablett but better...Watch AFL top 10 enforcers. A Line in the Sand. Lockett is edited out in some versions of it but you will see the violence inherent in the game but it has been cleaned up in the last 20 years. Also Mason Cox an ex USA basketballer from Texas has been playing AFL at the top level for the last 6 years. Refer his You Tube interview with Pat McAfee for some insights

[@allanboyd7528]

I can only echo what everyone is saying . I witnessed a lot of those highligts at the games. Never won a premiership .. but gee he was great. You didn't want to get in his way when he was leading out for the ball either. And yes, eldest son Gary jnr just as good but in a different way

[@RealFansSports]

Interesting. Thats crazy that he never won. Just shows how truly hard it is to win a championship in sports at the highest level. In what ways is the son different? We might have to try and check out a video of his

[@debkendall]

'The big men fly'

[@mick1535]

HI finally got around to God Cheers

[@antoniettaemilyschettino9097]

Love it when u guys react to our great sport afl!! Not sure if u haven't already but 2018 grand final is one of the best finals in history u should def react to that one 👌😀 p.s go WEST COAST EAGLES X

[@aplund]

Remember, the shorts are part of the colours as well. Usually it's white shorts for the away team. These days, every team has a "clash" colour though.

[@michaelmayo9048]

The team with color horizontal stripes (geelong) are dark blue n white .. and Collingwood with the vertical stripes are black n white ...colors don't show up well on tv.

[@brentdavis3102]

His nick name was God for a reason. Imagine if Gazza had of played as a NFL punter after his AFL career?

[@jarradmorgan8549]

React to buddy Franklin the best forward in the modern day he was.

[@livertic]

Check bumps biffs and brawlers

[@kevinohara2618]

his son gary ablett jr is arguably better, but that is not all, his other son nathan ablett was looking to be better than both of them but sadly he lost his enjoyment of the game and quit playing before we got to see how great he was going to be

[@lindsaypolkinghorne22]

His son was almost as good as he was

[@RealFansSports]

How long did his son play for, I wonder if he has any highlight reels we can watch too.

[@footballforlife2643]

You NEED to watch this video " Why the US sucks at football" by Zealand He explained the history of the sport in the US

[@ImagineMySurprise510]

Gary Ablett is a Born Again Christian. It must also be said he did some things that were wrong, but a Christian nonetheless because being a Christian is not measured by goodness but by trust in the redeeming work of Jesus Christ.

[@benjaminparkinson5255]

Yesthey should of won the .premiership

[@timothyokitchin]

Boys are you gonna choin England fans at world cup

[@glennrandall7468]

Growing up in a Rugby league heartland, I do know that probably it's between Gary Abblet snr and Liegh Matthew's for the goat of AFL. But please Greg Inglis is definitely not the goat Rugby league he's not even classed as a immortal. I don't even have home town bias as Greg Inglis went to high school in my hometown

[@RealFansSports]

GOAT might of been the wrong term for it. It was the comparison that we were given in relation to the impact they had in the game. Greg is obviously a more modern legend. atleast from what we have been told

[@glennrandall7468]

@@RealFansSports It's like comparing Rob Gronkowski,to Tom Brady. A quarter back has a greater influence on the outcome of a game just as a rugby league half back does

[@wayback479]

[@RealFansSports]

@@glennrandall7468 That makes a bit more sense. thanks for clarifying that

[@wakey1974]

he didn't have the nick name of God for nothing

[@cljones3932]

I heard yous comment he must practice diligently, that’s just it though he didn’t . I personally think Gary Ablett jnr was better .
