Parker, Dusty, Wingard, Motlop

[thetradesman]

Who will be the best?

 

[Super Hans]

Parker > Martin > Motlop > Wingard.

But if I had to bring one to my team? Motlop.

 

[Young Gun #6]

Wingard lower on output this year but by far has more potential than the rest of them.. time will tell if he lives up to it.

haha by far? Not bias at all.

Create a poll or thread on the AFL board on who has the most potential and we will see what the rest of the forum has to say..

hahaha so the poll should be "does wingard have BY FAR more potential than dusty, parker and motlop" ??

You're a fool if you legitimately think wingard has "by far" more potential, its a bug argument whether has any more potential at all than the others. Take the rose coloured glasses off.

How I think their careers will pan out> Wingard Motlop Dusty Parker
In order who I think is currently best > Dusty Motlop Parker Wingard

I don't really see improvement in Dusty at this stage because he's a gun already who can kick goals and get 30 disposals. Where Motlop and Wingard will start to do that week in, week out like Dusty. Parker would probably be 4th for me.

I don't feel like any of them have peaked to be honest. Dusty's improvement will come from maturity as he is learning the standard required of him to be an AFL footballer. Increasing his running capacity would be the most obvious area that could see him really take another step to the top echelon of players.

He had 16 brownlow votes last year I already class him in the top echelon of players.

He's below the Fyfe, Ablett, Pendlebury, Rockliff, Selwood level, which is the level I want him to get to. IMO it's not beyond him that one day he could be in the best 5 mids of the game.

Seconded

 

[Silvagnis]

1. Wingard
   
2. Martin
3. Parker
4. Motlop

In order of the players I would bring to Carlton. Would take a tough mid-forward over Motlop. Favour tough ball winners over streaky small forwards like Motlop. Need these types more than Motlop with Yarran and Menzel already on our list.

Wingard has had a down year by last year's standards, but he's still nailed an AA spot last year and kicked 28 goals this year. Won't go backwards.

Martin has already broken through, so he's judged a lot harder than Motlop who came onto the season last year. Can still find another level like Yarran and Gibbs who have had their best seasons to date.

This year I would rate him with Prestia, SJohnson, Cotchin, Jack, Sloane, Boak and Gibbs has upped his game. Would you disagree?

This is the same for our other star Christensen. And very soon you'll find out what your boy Troy Menzel is seriously capable of - mind you his brother (Daniel) had a better stand out year in 2011, before being cruelled by more injuries than your 'AA Wingard 2013' Menzel is your brightest star

Yeh he's probably around that 10th-15th mid this season. Not gonna make the AA team but a contender for the AA 40 man squad.

Problem with Cotchin and Martin and then having Deledio (IMO) a little tad behind them is what happened last year with us with Stevie Johnson and Selwood, they stole votes of each other just like your two guys do. If you had one of the two I'm pretty sure one would be the complete standout shining light - just how Ablett looked 4 ago starting at the Suns.

Would put martin above Jack and maybe even Cotchin this year. Would be behind (as you stated) Kennedy, Fyfe, Rockliff, Selwood, Pendles, Ablett and probably Ward, Beams, N.Jones, Libba, Stevie J, Boak, Gibbs, Sloane, Lewis, Priddis and probably around par or above Heppell, Cotchin, Prestia, Murphy, Dal Santo, Hayes, Dangerfield, Barlow, Jack.

Same can be said for almost every club though

Danger/Sloane/Thompson
Rockliff (stand alone)
Murphy/Gibbs
Beams/Pendles
Heppell/Jobe/Goddard
Fyfe/Barlow/Mundy
Stevie/Selwood
Ablett (stand alone, although prestia has been good)
Ward/Treloar
Lewis (stand alone, although mitchell and hodge have been good and bruest, roughy etc will steal votes)
Jones/Tyson
Harvey/Dal Santo
Boak/Gray (although a forward, plays a big role in the middle)
Hayes (stand alone, montagna been awful)
Kennedy/Jack/Hanneberry
Priddis (stand alone)
Libba/Macrae/Boyd

I don't like to think of your side as just Boak and Gray in a comparison because say the first 12 weeks of the year you guys had like 10 players minimum who were doing beyond a perfect job, like a switch, but now I can say it's just Boak and Gray. But I get where you are coming from and agree.
