It is very difficult to do a top 50 list, but Mike seems to do a bad a job as any.

Thomas at 9 is purely based on 2 Grand Finals, no doubt. He can't possible justify Dale Thomas at 9 if he did the list before the Grand Final.

I dont understand if he puts so much weight on this seasons performances, why Jobe Watson wasn't in the top 50.

Kade Simpson at 46, no Jobe Watson?

That's the sort of thing that makes Sheehans top 50 irrelevant.

Mike & I are both considered to had expert opinions..?

Come on - Jobe Watson?

It's half essendon's problem when he's their best player.

What an embarrassment.

Jobe is a fine player and should have been in the Top 50 for 2010, needs some jets around him though in a big way. I think some people totally miss the point that it is based on the year only and argue incorrectly as a result.

I think Mike sometimes forgets his own rule and has players higher than their actual season should allow them to be, IMO. I think he also, especially of late, puts this huge rating to grand final performances and goes too far and this is why Daisy is so high.

He had a great season Thomas, a lot better than I have previously given credit for.

Hence Watson not in the top 50 makes a mockery of his list.

You don't watch alot of football, do you?

Sheahan's top 50 is only opinion, highly subjective opinion. A considerable man-crush on Daisy is the only reason he has made the top 10. Marc Murphy has topped Daisy from the 2005 draft right up until today, in every way a footballer could, yet Murphy didn't even make the list this year and Daisy finished at 9th. That's not just biased, it doesn't even make sense.

Murphy's a great player, but Daisy had the better year, no doubt about it.

It is the list of the 50 best players of the 2010 AFL Season.

For some reason 90% of people think that this is a list of the best players in the league. I believe he does that list at the start of each season. This list a review of the season just gone.

Yeah, that's fine.

As I said in the quote of mine that you have highlighted, If Sheehan is listing the top 50 players of 2010, leaving Jobe Watson out is criminal.

I'm fully aware of what his irrelevant list is about.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
