Codesports which is an online offshoot the Herald Sun has an an article entitled "Lauren Wood’s Top 50 AFLW players leading into season 10". (I can't find a link for non subscribers but it will probably end up in the little paper later in the week).

There are three Demons in the list but not one in the top 10.  

The Melbourne players are -

11. Tyla Hanks

14. Kate Hore

48. Tayla Harris 

The top 10 at this stage before the bounce of the first ball are:-

1. Jasmine Garner (North Melbourne)

2. Ebony Marinoff (Adelaide)

3. Monique Conti (Richmond)

4. Ash Riddell (North Melbourne)

5. Ally Anderson (Brisbane)

6. Emily Bates (Hawthorn)

7. Eliza West (Hawthorn)

8. Charlie Rowbottom (Gold Coast Suns)

9. Chloe Molloy (Sydney)

10. Georgie Prespakis (Geelong)

Good to see the recognition for Tyla. But Kate? Shoulda been higher.

 

lauren pearce is clearly one of the best rucks in the competition and easily in the top 50

i'd argue tahlia gillard is one of the best key defenders in the game and should be in there too

no liv purcell in the top 50?

AFLW Dees have been underrated for years. Injury hit hard last year and missed out. This year the team needs to stay healthy to be a chance. There is plenty of talent and blend of youth and experience.


Eliza West wishes she was as good as Kate Hore.

My Tip Eliza Mac will rocket up this list this year. And I’d love Banno to go up a level or two with some consistency.

Pearce too injury prone for the top 50 these days.

Gillard very close, probably injuries and a dip of form last year costing her.

Liv Purcell absolutely top 50 and Chappy too. Chappy not being mentioned by now in this thread shows how underrated she is!

I wouldn't have Shell Heath as I'd go with more skilled players but you probably couldn't pick 50 players before her to field a side either.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
