    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    Who knows whether it's Ned Long, or a free agents, or a draftee. But it will be a combination of players who fill the void he leaves, including on field and off field leadership. How did Collingwood win a flag 3 years after Buckley finished up? Who would have seen that coming? Strong teams...

    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    Like replacing dual b&f and AA Grundy with 1 gamer Cameron?

    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    With Grundy our most valuable player, and Adams our best performing finals player. Good teams reinvent themselves regularly and quickly.

    So different players at a centre bounce don't have different roles? OK then. And then the centre bounce, which constitutes about 2% of the game duration, is done. What next? Every midfielder then spends the same amount of time playing the same role in the same positions on the ground, based...

    He was the second best performed player across 2025, including finals.

    Based on the above, every player in every team plays identical roles, and the algorithm ranks them based on like for like roles... The algorithm is fundamentally flawed.

    Yeah... I guess it's just coincidence that none of the 11 'best' players in 2025 came from the 4 'best' teams... Or maybe, the algorithm is fundamentally flawed.

    Nope. Just an interesting data point. Most predicted All-Austrlian teams had Holmes in it. He was the unlucky omission in 2025.

    Question: If the PLaYeR RaTiNGZ algorithm 'approximates the unknowing truth of player greatness, and how it leads to team success', why then do we only have 2 players in the year's top 11 who played in a winning final? That winning final being an Elimination Final. Answer: It doesn't...

    I'm not the person with did the player rankings to which you're referring. I suggest if he backs up his 2026 season with a similar year to 2025, he'll certainly be in everyone's top 5 or 10. He would have to be.
