Nothing wrong, I just think he's shown less than the players above him, mainly through lack of oppurtunity.

I should really have left him off the list and placed him in the same category as Smith, Hunter and Rivers etc.

You missed Jamar and Read.

I like Walsh I just reckon our other half backs have more to offer.

He would slot in at half back in most sides though.

Johnstone, Moloney, Miller, Neitz, Bruce, White, Green, Yze, Rivers, McLean top 10.

Williams and Heffernan last.

BTW seeing Broadbridge on those lists makes me sad. :(

I know, when I saw that (without looking at the date, assuming it was written today) I was about to let a few expletives off at those guys who said it.

Dont think I can argue with your top 10 SS. Its hard to gauge now if I was to do a full list, seeing as there would be a lot of guys on = 30, but the top 10 looks about right to moi.

Also, its funny how luke williams was no.30 for a lot of people back two years ago. Nothing has changed.

This is what our Top 10 SHOULD look like:

Neitz
White
Bruce
Yze
Johnstone
Green
Rivers
Bizzell
Brown
Robertson

Rivers gets in through being a consistent player at CHB, Miller would probably be 11. McLean is Top 15 but not 10 yet, Sylvia Top 20.

That's how it should go, although a fair stack of those players are doing nothing.

I agree that seeing Troy on those lists wasn't great, but it was an honest reflection of people's opinions at the time. I for one would've ranked him in our best 22 by the end of 2004.
