Most Exciting Player Since 2000

Featured Replies

Jeff Farmer

Farmer's nickname is literally 'The Wiz'. Like Cyril Rioli, he was a dual threat as a small forward; someone who was equally dangerous hunting the loose ball as he was soaring for a huge mark. Some of his grabs need to be seen to be believed โ€“ just ask Garry Lyon. Farmer was never better than in his 2000 campaign, when he kicked 76 goals and made the All-Australian team. Included in that season was the match where he booted nine second-half goals against Collingwood, after being dragged from the field in the second term without a touch. A remarkable footballer.

Honourable mentions:ย Liam Jurrah and Aaron Davey

Wiz the deserved winner! Robbo surely deserves an honourable mention too though.

Totally agree.

I was going to go with Jurrah as well, but this bloke played alongside Liam his whole career and didn't seem particularly excited:

I always liked Yze

Big Neita was also pretty handy when he was up and about.

But for pure excitement it has to be the Wizย

If the 'since' is including 2000 then it has to be the Wiz, though he left shortly after (not so exciting).

For the excitement of seeing a player dominate and carry a team on his back, it would be Neitz.

For the excitement of believing we had a genuine superstar emerging in our side, it would be Hogan, followed by Oliver.ย

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFLโ€™s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.ย
