This week Wayne Carey is grilled by Michael Gleeson, Jake Niall and Caroline Wilson on his list of the 20 best players he has seen. Why did Ablett snr slip so far down the list? Why is Dunstall picked ahead of Lockett, and Voss ahead of Hird? And why did some big names - including Hodge, Koutoufides and Kernahan - miss out? Plus, the difference between the haves and the have-nots among the clubs has never been clearer, the latest on the financial situation amid the shutdown and how the season could look if and when it restarts.
