Times sure have changed havent they. Some great memories being created here. 

I remember when lists like these came out we'd have none!

    You gotta be joking - Franklin (11) and Hawkins (12) they are on their last legs . they need walking sticks to get themselves onto the ground.. Give me a break Robbo.

    The other question I seriously have is... Is Bontempelli really that good ? He is not in my book a Number 2...

    Is it only us who notice Christian Salem??

    He is a gun. His 1st Quarter in the GF was 10/10

    i just don’t understand why he is so underrated…

    Correct should be in top 20 in the competition, also where is ED LANGDON??? Easily in top 50 easily!!

    IMV It should read 1 Oliver 2 Tracc 3 Gawn 4 Bontempelli then the rest!

    Agreed. Let him be under the radar. Certainly was a key player all through 2021 and especially on GF Day. Salem is a star.

    It's always insightful to read expert's conclusions after their thorough research...

    I think there's a legit typo.

    Zak Butters at 25.  125 perhaps? Maybe should be Zac Bailey?

    Averaged 18 touches, 3 tackles and less than a goal a game last year.  

    Rowan Marshall at 15?

     

    Above Jack Steele even?

     

    Slobbo write this in his bar seat in the inverloch pub again?

    I like when he has a few throws at the stumps.

    Marshall is fit this year, was completely stuffed with injuries last year. And will get a lot of ruck minutes. It’s not unreasonable to suggest he’ll be the 2nd best ruck in the comp.

    I love Zak Butters too, but he belongs in the 40’s with Bailey Smith and Zac Bailey, not in the 20’s with McCluggage.

    That said, if you’re going to gamble on young players on the up then I think going Gawn at 5, Fyfe at 6, Buddy and Hawkins at 11, 12. Mitchell 40 and Grimes 41 is also going with a heap of veterans. I’d shift all of those back a few rungs.
     

    Fritsch is also way too high. May, Lever, Salem are all comfortably better players than him.

    Your continued under valuing of Fritta in comparison to our champion defenders is very strange.  He has now started to average more than 2 goals a game in the best AFL competition in the land. And he keeps oN improving. His bags over 2 per game including a stellar Finsls Series in the last half of the season were a sure sign of Bsyley being at the top of his game. 6 in the GF was nearly Norm Smith Medal standard.

    You are also still one of the very few that have not recognised the skills and improvement inc. tackling and pressure in Bayleys game. Time  to admit you are wrong and give credit where credit is due.

    There’s no evidence of significant improvement in his tackling and pressure. A little better, sure, but not a lot.

    Im also rating him belong 3 defenders who have had AA level seasons over the last 2 years. I’m not saying he’s behind Jayden Hunt.

    He finished 11th in our B+F. So I’m happy to be in the camp with the premiership coaches rather than Robbo and a bunch of other forum members.

    Was extremely stiff not to get All Aus guernsey. By the end of the final series it was clear which one of he & Bailey Dale was the more effective player under pressure.

    Spot on and these so called “Expert Hacks” have had all summer to watch the Final Series, and still he is not rated!

    Trac was asked on AFL360 to name his top 5… he named Buddy as his number 5.

    I think that over the course of his career Buddy would easily be a top 5 player. He was a freak. He still is, he is just on his last legs. 

    The issue is we need to start separating these lists into "top 50 of the last decade" vs "top 50 of the last year". Because those lists do change with time, but some 'experts' don't want to move on.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
