Tough one. I'm inclined to go for BK, but Fitzgibbon's kicking has to be a factor. Given it's solid rather than El Masri-esque I'll still go with Kennedy. Played most of 06 with one leg & was still quality.

I can isee a case for Kennedy over Fitzgibbon, but I don't see how it's a long way.

Fitzgibbon's had the work rate of Hindmarsh over the last 3 or 4 seasons plus he's kicked goals at 75%.
The thing with Fitzgibbon is that he started his career slow and seems to be finishing his career the same way. He was absolute gun for a good five years there and right up their with Hindmarsh and Kennedy. But Kennedy was gun his whole career from days at Canberra, to Newcastle and then at Manly. His consistency over a long period would put him a long way infront of Fitzgibbon even when you take in his goal kicking.

Probably not his fault, but O'Davis was selected over Shifcofske for QLD far too many times.
Add that to fact its not his fault he had Barrett as his play marker not Johns and we be can see why there is such a major difference in their club records.
