The best three midfielders for each club.

Where does our midfield stand among the AFL clubs?

I hope the AFL steps in to 'equalise'. Kangas, Power and Saints have unfair numerical advantages (😄)

Lions, Suns and Giants have scary midfields. Swans pretty good too if their players can stay on the park.

We’re a bottom four midfield now sadly and we won’t be competitive again until our next generation of midfielders in Langford, Windsor, Lindsey etc have matured.

Or... get free agent Butters plus Humphrey via trade. Bam. Top 4 midfield in 2027.

Or utilise the players we already have available, Langford, Windsor, Sparrow, Rivers, Culley, Langdon, Lindsay as well as Kozzie, Steele and JV, we have options and we must utilise what we have now not what we wish we had. Who knows what King and Co are planning but I’m sure it won’t be what we expect.

I said Bam.

That’s not our best starting midfield. Viney or Steele make way for Langford. We need to get Humphrey or Butters in there.

Agreed, but I have no problem with that.
The pathway forward is clear with some very promising young talent on the list.
Huge difference between this and the starting midfields were were fielding in the Neeld years where there was very little talent waiting in the wings.

Whilst I am happy with the decision to move on Trac and Oliver, stings having them in other teams top three.

Onwards and upwards hopefully.

Now that would be an absolute rolls royce outcome. Just to entertain this hypothetical for a moment, who does that displace? Almost certainly means Viney, Steele and Sparrow are under the question mark. If by some miracle we were to pull this off, we would have to be sprung back into the window and also have some level of favouritism too.

I would be absolutely shocked if we regularly used that combo.

Langford, Steele and Koz would be my starting 3.

Culley & Windsor rotating with Langford and Koz, then Viney/Sparrow with Steele, although I hope Viney/Steele are used sparingly and we go for more speed.

another stupid graphic to fill the off-season content quota

bears' midfield is so good cos it runs about 10 deep

it's not about 'top three' it's about collective group

edit: also, why are ruckmen never included in midfield groups? the best ones, like max, are effectively another midfielder, running around getting 20-30 possessions and a truckload of intercept marks into the bargain
