Current Top 5 Indigenous Players Today?

[Cleric]

Was thinking who would be the top 5 current day indigenous Lads playing today.
Not sure how it stacks up with previous generations, so might be worth comparing.
For me it's these lads.

With regards to where they sit compared to previous generations, we are a long way back.

1. Izak Rankine is the best. The others I have clumped in together. I think NWM is the closest on potential.

Has Bobby hill passed CC?

 

[SSSSSS]

On current form I'd have:

1. Rankine
2. NWM
3. JHF
4. Long
5. Simpkin

Honourable mentions to Bobby, Amon, Pearce, Humphries.

Jason isn't indigenous as far as I know. His step dad obviously was, but not him himself?

 

[calder_daddy]

Simpkin isn’t in the top 5
I’d have Pickett over him any day.

 

[Do_Beta_Rapport]

He played for the All Stars

 

[SSSSSS]

Played for the All Stars maybe he identifies as indigenous?

 

[Cleric]

Played for the All Stars maybe he identifies as indigenous?

Who knows. From what I understand he isnt indigenous himself.
I could be wrong, but maybe due to to his step dad he might claim it.

Edit* Upon researching it apparently his great great grandmother on his father's side was indigenous and he only found out as an adult, as he has never spoken to his father.

When was the last time Tim Kelly played a decent game.

 

[Cleric]

When was the last time Tim Kelly played a decent game.

At his best he is elite, and could play way again if he gave a shit.

 

[PerthBoy86]

SPP and Bobby Hill should be in the conversation.

 

[Do_Beta_Rapport]

When was the last time Tim Kelly played a decent game.

About 3 years

 

[PerthBoy86]

At his best he is elite, and could play way again if he gave a shit.

We're not holding our breath, just hope he at least contributes and isn't a liability. I think he was important in 22-24 though in often carrying our midfield, often unheralded.

 

[pico]

1. Horne Francis
2. Hamling
3. Eyre
4. Sanders
5. Kreuger

What are you referring to with the last sentence “With regards to where they sit compared to previous generations, we are a long way back.”?

 

[GWT6]

At his best he is elite, and could play way again if he gave a shit.

If we are listing Tim Kelly, we probably should also include Maurice Rioli and Polly Farmer.

If listing at their best right now - anyone who watched Kossie Pickett this week would have him at number one. Problem is we have no idea what he will do next week = and how long the suspension will be.

 

[GWT6]

What are you referring to with the last sentence “With regards to where they sit compared to previous generations, we are a long way back.”?

That sentence is very clear - are you trying to make it something it's not?

 

[carndapies]

That sentence is very clear - are you trying to make it something it's not?

Looking for clarification, I don’t think it is clear at all and ambiguous. Who is a long way back? Compared in what way to previous generations?

 

[blueiris]

Ah Chee is criminally underrated

[WillHayward]

Karl Amon criminally underrated. Gun player.

Agreed. Also very reliable.
Doesn't have bad games. Doesn't get injured.

1. Rankine

Who is Long?
