Not the worst effort from Mike. Kerr the clear one out for mine. He's done nothing since Judd and Cuz left the Eagles to warrant a top 20 spot    ???

Sounds pretty much on the money for mine wayne as the 10 names. Is that your order for the top 10 wayne?

I'd still have Ablett as clearly No.1

Roughhead, Gibbs, Deledio, Bock and Watson miss out on the top 50??

As much as we love the Tiges no suprise there are no Richmond players. We don't have anyone now who deserves to be there. Lids the closest but he's not there yet and it doesn't help he plays in a young side struggling at the bottom of the ladder.

Yep one of Mike's better efforts in recent years. Overall high quality top 50.

A few thoughts..
Lids won't be in the top 10. At least he shouldn't be but he'd at least have Rob Murphy's spot.
Surprised to see Heath Shaw so high. Think Pendlebury, Swan & Didak are all much better footballers at Collingwood.
Swan, Montana & Boyd all too low IMO. Kerr being above those players is a hoot.
Rioli, Haevery & Power all a bit lucky IMO based on 2009.
Rest is about right cept Hall is more of a what might be selection.

Only Port and Richmond without a top 50 player. I am sorry but I cant believe that any Clubs best player wouldnt be in the top 50. He has quiet a few up and comming players that have hardly put a full season together yet in the top 50 (Tippet, Ryder, Higgins, Le Cras, etc) and a few that are well past it. Tell me Higgins one season (not even full season) was better than Lids or Kane Cornes last year.

Sheahan is as predictable as a politician, he trots out the same party line every time.  His is that he don't like / rate Richmond.  That's ok I don't like or rate him either.

It's a tired, stupid concept by a self righteous, over indulged fool
