Not for me.

He was just about the best player in the game for half a season or so, but longevity aside, he's got no business being in there.

Only two All Australians (less than all of the other blokes who went in last night), a couple of B&Fs in average sides (like Paul Salmon managed at Hawthorn), one AFLPA MVP (same as Russell Greene, Corey McKernan, Luke Darcy), and a reputation that far outstripped his actual performances.

He was a very good footballer for a time. So were the four blokes mentioned above. None of them deserve to be in the Hall of Fame though. And neither does Koutoufides.
