Isn't it interesting that in your top 10 (which I don't disagree with), only 6 clubs are represented. I thought this competition was "equal".

Hee!!! That was meant to be funny right Nasher ;) :D ?!!!

And not really a high price put on defenders really is there?

Do we underestimate their importance?

And only 1 from a Victorian club...

I'd get rid of Cousins (only because he's not currently in the AFL), bump the others up 1 spot and sneak Lloyd in at 10.

Other than that I don't fundamentally disagree with the above.

Simon Black could sneak in.

Glass and Scarlett would be on the fringes but I wouldn't call them top 10 just yet.

It'd be interesting to see where the highest Melbourne player would be ranked - would we have one in the top 50?

Lloyd...

i was at essendon vs st kilda on the weekend, and Matthew Lloyd is a disgrace

did not earn one of his goals, dived everywhere, sooked all the time

how he can be described as a champion is beyond me

on the other hand, nick reiwoldt is a champion, he faught hard all day, double teamed all the time, and just played football

people continue to overate dal santo... sure he has good games but he has to do it more than 5-6 times a year... Mcleod is definately still top 10.... class is permanent and he is back to his best....

Llloyd i wouldnt even have in my top 10..... yes it is painful watching him always looking over his shoulder for a free it looks so ridiculous.... grhhhhhhhhh

gday mate welcome to the forums. are you hedging your bets in case the north kangaroos really become the north kangaroos? i ope they dont but we'll happily have you on board if they do...

Cousins out, Brad Johnson in.

Other than that, not bad.

Perhaps you could argue that Burgoyne may be replaced by a Lloyd or a Del Santo, but I think it's not a bad top 10. Well done Yze_Magic.

How can he be described as a champion? Hmmmm....lets see.

217 games, 784 goals [top 10 on the all time goalkicking list].

Coleman medal 3 times : 2000, 2001, 2003

All Australian 5 times : 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2003

Essendon leading goalkicker 9 times, every year from 1997 to 2005.

Top 3 in our B & F three times : 1997, 1998, 2001

International Rules Series : 1998, 2001

Jim Stynes Medal in 2001

AFL Rising Star nominee in 1996

Premiership side in 2000

Pre-season premiership side in 2000

Club captain 2006-

Yeah, he's just a talentless hack.

You obviously didn't notice a couple of Lloyds chases and tackles against St Kilda. Stuff like that seems to go unnoticed when people bag Lloyd. And that's a couple of weeks after Sheedy described his game in Round 1 against Adelaide as one of the best and most unselfish he has seen from captain in his time at Essendon.

dal santo is a star however i do concede that putting him in my top ten was a bit rich considering i left out a superstar in Mcleod and maybe Scott West, maybe Goodwin/Edwards, Black/Power etc.

Agree totally!!!

Kerr is ripping it up and sticking it to his detractors!

Cornes is an absolute gun and would be a walk-up start in any one of the other 15 clubs!

Heath Shaw is one of the surprise packets in my view! Having a stellar start to the season!

Goodes is a great player who has not been at his best so far this season, but is ticking along nicely!

Barry Hall is unreal.... For a bloke who injured his knee early on this year, he is not showing any sign of it!

Another 5 I would add....

Andrew McLeod - Well on the way to a stellar year and maybe another Charlie?!?!?

Chris Judd - No need to even comment!

Scott Lucas - Wish we had this sort of option up forward!

Simon Black - Leading by example to a great group of young cubs!

Matthew Pavlich - A hard running, strong leading, mark taking leader!

Posted

Adelaide - McLeod

Brisbane - Black

Carlton - Gibbs

Collingwood - Heath Shaw

Essendon - Lucus

Freo - Pavlich

Geelong - Ablett

Hawks - Sewell

Kangaroos - ??? no one

Melbourne - ??? no one

Port Adel - Chad Cournes

Richmond - Raines

St Kilda - Montania

Sydney - Hall

WCE - Kerr

WB - Johnson

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
