Who would you rather at your club??
Taking into account the quality of the player and not the team they play for..
as we all know the hawks and cats have a superior team to the tigers at the moment which may make it easier for Mitchell an Corey to play to their potential.
Try not to vote if you follow the 3 clubs involved..:o
 
Mitchell is a supurb player, still a fair bit ahead of Foley and Corey, Mitchell is going to go close to a Brownlow this year and will almost definetly be AA.

Foley would be next, he is elite, fast, can break tackles, is starting to break tags, can kick goals and racks up the disposals and hard ball gets like noone else, great player.

Corey I think is being helped by a fantastic Geelong midfield, he does do his own work, but I think he would be less rated if Geelong were doing worse.
 
I generally don't vote in polls that involve Geelong players, however if I could have one of Mitchell or Foley at Geelong, it would be Foley without a doubt.

foley is perphaps more damaging than those two but I dunno if he is as good at this stage simply because they both get a fair bit more of it than him
 
My appreciation of Foley has grown immensely from the Dream Team match. I'm not basing all my judgements on that, seeing as i have both a cats and a tigers room mate i see both quite often. So out of those two, would choose Foley.

Having said that, i still think Mitchell is an absolute star, and possibly under-rated.
 
People suggesting that Joel Corey is being flattered by a gun midfield should note that he won Geelong's B&F in 2005, when Geelong's midfield was nowhere near what it is currently.

He's always been a gun, and is part of the REASON that Geelong's midfield is so strong, not one of the players being flattered by it.
 
Not being biased but why at this current stage is Mitchel 2nd. He is daylights ahead of the other 2 and anyone who knows anything about football will know this.

Not denying that the other 2 are very good players, but with his acceleration Foley is perhaps a more damaging player. Wouldnt trade him for either 2. But i would rather have mitchell than corey
 
And i know i cant judge how good a player is based on performance in one game, but foley was by far the best playing amongst the AFL's top players in the hall of fame game.

By far the best? Get real.

He was great, but he wasn't even in the top 3 best for the Vics on the night.

He was Top 3, behind Harvey and Fevola, Foley was also the guy who got the Vics back into the game, he was definetly one of the most effective through the 4 quarters.

Foley had 21 in the game...was very effective. Played 64% of game time....would of loved to see how many he had if he had of played another 20mins.

IMO Fev, Harvey and Scarlett were all better than Foley on the night. Foley comes in at 4th or even 5th best for the Vics I think.

Having said that, he was excellent.

Foley was more influential than Scarlett, Scarlett got a few lucky breaks down back and was on a dud in Mooney.

Mooney is far from a dud. Dare I say that the reason Mooney looked average on the night was because of the player he had in direct opposition to him? ;)

To say that Scarlett got "a few lucky breaks" does a terrible injustice to him. He is the best full back in the league and showed that on Saturday night. He was brilliant.
 
All quality players but you cannot go past corey week in week out continually gets the ball and is very underated think he might poll well with charlie as well.:thumbsu:

Go look at the thread dedicated to Mooney, he is a glorified dud, he plays in a team with exceptionality all over the field and he benifits from that, he did not deserve All Australian last year and certainly doesn't deserve the accolades.
