MELBOURNE

Kysaiah Pickett (gen forward), Christian Petracca (midfielder), Alex Neal-Bullen (mid-forward), Max Gawn (ruck)

A very good soldier, Neal-Bullen is a surprise on this list. But that speaks to the lack of depth in that position.

The players who didn’t quite make the cut as mid-forwards were Jy Simpkin, Pat Lipinski and Ollie Dempsey.

Neal-Bullen does his job each week but averages just 18.7 disposals and 0.4 goals per game.

Petracca hit the games threshold to make it here before his injury, while Gawn is clear as the top ruck according to player ratings.

ADELAIDE

Mitch Hinge (general defender), Izak Rankine (gen forward)

    Key defenders seem under represented!

    Houston’s ratings (particularly kick related) have been lights out for 18 months, so no surprise to see him there for Port.

    Whilst we do bag Champion Data, when it doesn't suit our narrative, I am very very pleased for ANB.

    If you looked in the dictionary for quiet achiever...etc etc.

    I’m not. Both have been below their best by a fair way.

    And his long term fans are nodding their heads sagely and saying I told you so.

    Judd McVee surely couldn’t have been far off the list. 
     

    I was a critic of ANB and at the end of 2020 would have been happy to see him move on. But now I love the guy, his work rate and commitment to the team is outstanding. We lack a bit of what he brings to the team and he is now one of our more important players. Very happy to see him get any recognition that comes his way.

    Good for Nibbler, a real club stalwart.  Any chance he could win the B&F?

    He will be up there I would think...not sure if he could win it but he's been consistent.

    How does ANB make the list and not Merrett?

    Richmond have 2 on the list and both look like they'll head back to WA next season... tough times coming for them.

    Merrett is rated significantly higher than ANB, but Merrett is classified as a midfielder and ANB a mid-forward. Merrett is the 15th highest rated player in the competition but most players above him are too.

    It's based on the Player Ratings which you can access here:

    https://www.wheeloratings.com/afl_stats.html?year=2024

    The player classifications may differ slightly and wings aren't differentiated from other midfielders on my site.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
