    This must be based on “currently available to play” ratings.
     

    Hore, Petty and Preuss would be all around 31-33 mark in normal business. Hore especially was very good last year.  I’d certainly rate all above Bedford, Spargo and Cwagner.

    Is this ranked as current output or potential output?

    On what basis exactly is a player who is yet to debut ranked above 9 others who have?

    I loved the bit where Bradke was rated higher then Hore and Petty.

    Hore was only rated 4th for intercept marks in the AFL in 2019... but yeah cool.

    The exercise in compiling the rankings was the definition of a complete waste of time but the numbers aren't totally random (like derived from numerology for instance). A box of McDonald's cookies in the mail for whoever cracks the code.

    I'd be concerned with any ranking system that doesn't have Gawn as our number 1. Three times AA in the past 4 years, dual B&F, AFL Coaches Award winner in 2018. And once again having another consistent and brilliant season. 6 games ago Tracc finished 5th in our club B&F - his first top 5 finish.  He's played three outstanding games this season (Carlton, Hawthorn, GC and a couple of good ones).  I'd think there would still be some distance between his and Gawn's output.  But if he can go past Gawn then we will have two genuine champions and be well on our way to some long overdue team success.

    6 - LANGDON

    I reckon he's heading for a top 5-8 B&F finish. Been a great pick up aside from 1 or 2 quietish games at the G earlier in the season.

    I can't crack the code but how on earth is Melksham so high?

    Petracca has been on fire. Toss of the coin with those 2. I think they are the best 2 in the league.

    It's based on this year he was an emergency in one game.

    Melksham being so high might be a clue together with Hibberd's rather elevated status. I would say Spargo and Jones are the real anomalies.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
