Robbo's top 50

[Hava Alle]

It's out............ Discuss.

 

[Hava Alle]

No Heeney, Stewart, Zerrett, Shuey, Adams, Treloar, Blicavs, Neale, Edwards and Breust. Wow.

 

[Sauras]

Rance...lol

 

[schmuttt]

Rory Laird top 30 spare me

 

[RUNVS]

Perhaps the OP could post the list so we have something to discuss?

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Can someone post the list?

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Rory Laird top 30 spare me

You're right. He should be higher.

Laird is an absolute gun.

 

[Forward Press]

No one ever posts their own list because they know that people will rip it apart too. Easy to criticise (and fun too!) - but it's not easy to narrow down the players and then order them.

In the end top 50 lists are always opinions and opinions are like assholes - everyone has one.

Honestly I think there is more value in us guessing who Robbo has included/left out and then getting offended at this list, rather than debating the actual list.

Rory Laird top 30 spare me

2 all Australians in the last 2 years and in the 40 man squad the year before that. That is 3 pretty high achieving years.

Would love to hear the spare me part

Very good at his position but do you really think he'd be considered a top 30 player by coaches? Doesn't actually play on anyone...

 

[Father Jack]

It's a predictive top 50 too, who he thinks will be the best players at the end of the year even though they might not be at the moment

That old chestnut......

Have you watched Adelaide play in the last two years?

 

[Jaeger]

Does his opinion of the top 50 really matter?

Watch him closer next time. You will be able to notice it more this year with the new 6-6-6 rule

 

[Brutalitops]

I cant think of anyone less qualified to put out a AFL top 50 players

Adelaide played a man behind the ball more often than any other club. Be very interesting to see how he goes in 6/6/6...

[adammania9]

I wish I had enough spare time to care about let alone criticise another man’s honest and clearly decent list of the best AFL players

Thanks. The OP must be new to this.

Ridiculous that Viney is in over Neale lol

Love Viney to death and hes a hugely important player for us but he has been injured a lot over the past two years.

 

[Luv_our_club]

I am going to spew unless someone can give me a bloody idea how Tom Mitchell did not make this list!!!

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Yep. They do often play a loose-man back. His name is Wayne Milera.

 

[Luv_our_club]

Robbo is one of the few media people who say they care what the majority of fans think about the day grand final.... he earns my praises for today.
