Prediction Which of our youngsters will end up being the best?

[kane249]

Not at all. All Australian, Brownlow Medal, Leigh Matthew Medal, Norm Smith Medal, premiership medal and first ever person to win the Coleman medal from full-back is on the cards in 2019.

efa

what categorizes elite?

Big pipes I believe.

 

[bombard]

Ol' Dom Sheed goes okay for a bloke with 0% support.

Bless your left foot, sir.

 

[FatPizza]

Frankie will show y'all how you can win the BNF in a premiership year from the rookie list.

 

[Doashuey]

what categorizes elite?

Same parameters as 'very good' but better.

 

[Eaglespur]

Big pipes I believe.

Better than elite

 

[Eaglespur]

Well is he in the top 5 players in his position in the league? maybe .. if not he's hardly elite

 

[Turboman1994]

Sheed will be our next elite player he is the closest to it

 

[Doashuey]

If that's your parameter then yes I would say he is.
So what is very good? 10-6th best?

I'd say elite is the handful of people who are consistently vying for AA in their positions.. Very good is probably the next rung of super consistent performers

 

[HurleyHepsHird]

Rioli, Allen, then Barrass.

Venables wildcard to be best of the lot, but at the moment Rioli and Barrass are more mature and performing in big games.

I feel like Barrass is a guy who could get a couple of AAs, but Rioli if he stays healthy and keeps working on his fitness could become a match winner and cult figure like Cyril. Has the ability to be one of the best HF/mid pinch hitters in the comp.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Barrass took more marks in the GF then all the campaigners on this list combined.
Just sayin.

Yep Id agree with that. Id also say that he has probably enteres that realm in the back end of the season. Consistency is the unknown at this stage due to only playing 40ish(?) games but his performance in big finals games makes him as elite in my eyes. AA beckons.

51 games in, premiership player.. boy oh boy imagine how good he is gonna be for the next 100-150 games

 

[Candiru]

It could end up being Tom Barrass, you know?

I assume he's going to play 200+ games as a first-choice FB. That's a reasonable bar already.

 

[Obeanie1]

Sheed will be our next elite player he is the closest to it

Think Yeo will be before Sheed.

Darling not far off either. Just needs to stop dropping easy marks.

 

[kerr87]

Barrass is so damn underrated by the wide AFL community.
Superstar.

 

[Shmiddy15]

TB absolutely murdered Cox in the first final, and no one blinked an eye. Did a very job on him in the GF too.

Sorry I wasnt his sponsor at the time

Also I don't like how this reads...

Please change Cox to pussy. Thnx

 

[Avalor]

I really like how Oscar Allen is shaping up - will be a beauty!

He seems to have put on a little bit of size which is good

 

[dajesmac]

Allen is possibly my favourite of our Under 23s. But I do love DV too.

 

[FKASC]

Which Allen though

 

[squashface]
