Oliver @ 43 is an outright joke. If its based on 2023 performance only, fair enough but then how do you have Sicily @ 11 who missed almost as much footy as Oliver through injury. 

Just doesnt add up. #muppet.

I’m generally not one for knocking “top player lists”, they’re somewhat subjective, but mainly, I just don’t care. But, this list (Robbo‘s) is terrible.

Edited by Ethan Tremblay

Oliver at 43 is plain insanity.

Having Zak Butters at 2 was ridiculous. Very good player but no way number 2.

Hard to argue with the Readers top 10. I agree with Larkey at 7. Excellent player

It's a ragebait click generator and it works every year.

Robbo's opinion is irrelevant to me.

Ragebait is an excellent description.

As adults, I find it strange behaviour to go around telling other adults that you believe someone is better at something than someone else!

Isn't this what umpires do when they award votes?

not sticking up for the list exactly but i believe it is based on who is the top players for 2024. i.e who will be the best by end of season. so some guess work / predicting involved

Bring back Mike Sheahan

Robbo makes Mike Sheahan seem like Einstein ! 
 

Robbo seems such an appropriate name. Conveys a suitable bogan image of a character with poor habits and not too many neurons. A la Sir Les Patterson. Apologies to all the Robbos out there! 

Genuinely, supporting Port Adelaide might be the only thing worse than these lists.

You should probably apologise to the family of Barry Humphries, too, for equating Robbo with Sir Les.

True. Sir Les was entertaining and funny and of course a great Ambassador for the country.

Robbo has had too many cactus Coolers, Oliver at 43 GARBAGE BULLTISH!😱🤮

No May in the top 50. That was enough for me. The ESPN list is alot more balanced and logical.

It's funny isn't it.

It's now completely accepted that teams are nor going anywhere near a flag without an elite defence.

Footy media bang on about all the time. And every year the brownlow gets, rightly in my view, for being a midfielder award

And then all the media awards go to mids. Coaches award too I guess, but al least defenders get votes.

And then a top 50 from the head footy writer at the hun doesn't include the best defender in the best defence in the AFL. 

And has Moore at 22 and weitering at 36. 

Curiously he has Tom Stewart at 19. A gun no doubt. Better than Moore, weitering and may? Big call.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
