Ranking the top 10 Giants I've seen was an enjoyable yet fairly straight-forward task given the club is only 15 seasons old.

From the originals, prized picks and draftees to those who have extended their careers with the Orange Team, there's been a plethora of talent from day dot.

While GWS is yet to win its first premiership, 19 finals, a Grand Final appearance, four preliminary finals and finals campaigns in seven of the last nine seasons point to a perennial contender.

The genuine superstars have made an impact but those who have helped build the culture and character and set the standards are as worthy of recognition.

Apologies: Heath Shaw, Jesse Hogan, Finn Callaghan, Tom Scully

9Stephen Coniglio

One of only two remaining OG's, the West Australian product has contributed plenty to the club's DNA.

An elite midfielder is his prime who in recent years has been cruelled by injury, Coniglio (pronounced Con-il-io for those still stuffing it up after more than a decade) has always put the team first as a long-time, selfless member of the leadership group and former captain.

Firm fan favourite, much loved and respected is our ‘Cogs' and I'm still down on Leon Cameron for how he spoke to his captain at the time as highlighted in the Amazon series Making their Mark which captured the 2020 hub season.
