Rightio.

Let me guess, you're a Bombers fan that thinks Zac Merrett should have been an All-Australian too? lol

Should have made the squad*

What difference would that have made? He still would've been cut out of the 40.

 

[GOTHELIONS16]

Below Cameron and level with Gunston. So we're taking in account 2015 but not the most recent played game of AFL? Boyd had a coming out game that Daniher certainly hasnt had.

No we are mainly taking into account the most recent season, with emphasis on later games. But also earlier/mid 2016 form as well. Boyd was pretty bad for most of the regular season

I know he didn't deserve to make the 22. He and Cripps were robbed of squad places.

Just stop mate.

Me stop? What you say makes no sense. So you'd prefer a player for getting recognition in a 40-man team even if he gets cut? To say he was an All-Australian on paper.... ahh Essendon supporters. Always so bitter lol see what happens on Anzac Day mate. Cant wait for your excuse when you have a full team back and still lose lmao

Boyd played 15 games. He averaged the same stats as Daniher and obviously kicked less goals from less games. You guys are kidding if you dont think his Grand Final performance puts him ahead of Daniher. Who else at 195+cm as their number 1 forward plays every game and only manages 43 goals? Thats laughable, on a team of scrubs he shouldve kicked 60 if he was any good!!

When the ball never gets to the forward line and he has no help from a second tall, it's a bit difficult. With Hooker alongside him next year, oppositions can't pay as much attention to Daniher as they did this year.

 

[Thommo333]

As a Bulldogs supporter I'd rate Boyd 1 or 2 ratings less than Daniher although by the end of next year I think Boyd will pass him. Boyd played a good final series but had an average season. Daniher played well IMO in a disfunctional team.

I'm gonna go ahead and say he doesnt kick 50 goals this year. If there was a new team formed in the competition and as a Key Forward you could only draft Daniher or Boyd, at this very second, nobody is taking Daniher. Cloke will have a better season if he stays in the team. Dont forget that minus these past 2 trash seasons, Cloke was a dominant Forward for a good 4-5 seasons for us. He was doing it at Joes age. No excuses. See what happens this season champ.

GOTHELIONS16 posting the next category soon?

Cloke will play ressies.

Boyd did stuff all before the GF.

Boyd had a game Daniher hasnt even come close to. Stop mate. If Daniher kicks more than 50 goals I'll send you a 6-pack of beer, if you're of legal drinking age. Not happening though.

Thankyou, a Bulldogs supporter saying it how it is. well that settles Boyds rating then

 

[kangle4]

I think at the start of the game Cloke should be rated higher than both Daniher and Boyd but those two will have far higher potentials where as Cloke will be on a quick downward slide.

 

[GOTHELIONS16]

What category do you want next? Wingmen or Small Defenders?

 

[Thommo333]

I agree. Cloke came in as depth and will only play until Redpath returns unless he regains his form of 5 years ago which is highly unlikely. Boyd had a shit shoulder this season and had to have surgery in the off-season so hopefully next season he is able to play like he did in the grand final every week or most weeks at least

Why? Because he supports the team that legitimises the rating? You dont watch non-Brisbane games? I'd certainly hope so, you must fall asleep a lot if not.

Wingmen please.

I would have a better idea of Bulldogs players than you would and you would have a better idea about Collingwood players than I would.

 

[GOTHELIONS16]

Here is the finalised Key forwards list and Ruck list. Feel free to continue posting your suggestions for these two categories. Especially the lower rated players which don't seem to be getting much attention. Wingmen to come.

Thats fair but thats not to say your perception of a Dogs player is fair to what it is. I could say Treloar should be a 96 which isnt the obvious case, but that doesnt hold any merit just because I support Collingwood.

Thanks mate. I still cringe seeing Jake Stringer there, I know why he is, but jeez.

 

[GOTHELIONS16]

Here's the wingmen. Remember the ratings aren't important yet, just the order from best to worst. Don't forget about the players rated <75 as well!

 

[GOTHELIONS16]

Yes, I know what you mean. He is one of a kind.
