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.


I ranked the players using a more objective method:

Christian Petracca 2280

Jack Viney 2666

Clayton Oliver 2248

Max Gawn 2200

Jake Melksham 2213

Jake Lever 2072

Angus Brayshaw 1888

Michael Hibberd 1741

Tom McDonald 1635

Christian Salem 1402

Charlie Spargo 1229

Harley Bennell 892

Sam Weideman 869

Bayley Fritsch 755

James Harmes 753

Josh Wagner 734

Aaron vandenBerg 687

Alex Neal-Bullen 689

Nathan Jones 685

Jayden Hunt 651

Mitchell Hannan 642

Oscar McDonald 611

Steven May 496

Joel Smith 474

Kade Kolodjashnij 335

Give us a clue @Skuit

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.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
