Interesting one as always opinions vary, I think Serong is a better player than Warner and also Rozee to low to start things off.

, I am actually a big fan of his work.

 

[darcytiger]

He doesn’t seem to respect Noah Balta’s unique skillset

 

[TigerTime88]

Stopped reading at Brayden Maynard.

 

[Pomsta]

I think he might have forgotten Tim Taranto

Haha and a 1!

Adam Treloar must have had some big supporters on the AA panel last year, given panellist Kayno doesn't rate him top 50 in the comp.

It's not as if 2024 was a wild flash in the pan for Treloar, he's the only 250 gamer in history to average 28+ touches per game over his career - the very definition of prolonged consistent output.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Aliir and Maynard are glaringly out of place in this list.

Is this a projection (S Darcy could be justified) or a retrospective (might explain Danger)?

 

[spenze]

JFC, Aliir?

When he gets it, he turns it over, when he has to defend, you may as well play him as a runner

 

[The Nostradamus]

Did xerri retire last night?

Stopped reading at Kane Cornes

I saw the thread title and thought he had gotten an infraction for something

 

[Altum Volantes]

JFC, Aliir?

That’s always been his way, he’s a liability in general play - good interceptor though…

 

[Cyclops]

Cornes is a troll. I love Maynard but ranking hin ahead of Holmes? Just lol.

 

[Cyclops]

Is this a protection (S Darcy could be justified) or a retrospective (might explain Danger)?

It's a secret third thing.

The secret is talking nonsense to get noticed.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Surprised he didn’t have Zerk-Thatcher in there.

 

[Lingsface]

Zach Merrett makes my top 10 potentially and top 15 definitely. Can he do much more?

 

[Lingsface]

Did all of his A graders make the top 30?

 

[Mr Meow]

Kornes AA team based on top 50 (adhering to positions at least as much as a standard AA team):

FB: Maynard Weitering McGovern
HB: Blakey Taylor Stewart
C: Gulden Bontempelli Butters
HF: Petracca J.Cameron JHF
FF: Greene Curnow Hogan
FOL: Gawn Daicos Heeney
IC: Cripps Neale Warner Serong

And yes, it's midfield heavy but don't try and convince me he'd replace Warner, Serong, JHF and Petracca with hybrids or non mids Sheezel, Papley, McCluggage and Rankine. 3 of them play forward enough for qualification.

 

[eaglespremiers]

Is this a protection (S Darcy could be justified) or a retrospective (might explain Danger)?

Definitely protection.

 

[Mr Meow]

My only thinking on Dangerfield is he has the QF where he destroyed Port's All Australian midfielders, fresh in his brain.

 

[Clark G]

Butters ahead of Rozee? Port fans, you agree?
