FARMER to Skilton to Buddy.
If Franklin is being double-teamed, there's always Matthew Lloyd on the lead, or Royce Hart in the goalsquare. With Barry Cable to pick up the crumbs.
The star-studded line-up is the product of a tough selection process to pick a team of the best left-footers of the past 50 years to mark Lefty Round this week.

The team features champions from the past five decades, from Polly Farmer in the ruck to Maurice Rioli on the wing, Mark "Bomber" Thompson in the back pocket and Simon Black on the ball.
It boasts seven Brownlows (including three each to Bob Skilton and Ian Stewart), six North Smith Medallists and winners of eight of the past 11 Coleman Medals.
Evidence of the team's star power is that selectors couldn't find room for Brownlow winners Paul Couch or Tony Liberatore, Norm Smith winners Michael Long or Ryan O'Keefe or modern era stars Nick Dal Santo and Nathan Brown.
An intiative of Fox Footy, Lefty Round coincides with International Left-Handers day on August 13 - read more about Lefty Round here.
The selectors were: Tony Shaw, Jon Anderson, Mike Sheahan and David Parkin.
