Post by: one-eyed on December 10, 2018, 02:51:39 PM
The star-studded Tigers possess the No.1 player in the game in superstar midfielder Dustin Martin, along with Shane Edwards (17), Jack Riewoldt (34), Trent Cotchin (46), Kane Lambert (49), Alex Rance (54), Toby Nankervis (60) and Josh Caddy (88), while Dion Prestia sits at No.102 and his former Gold Coast teammate Tom Lynch is expected to leap up the list from his injury-impacted No.187.

Why do I continue to react with this BS but here goes. Treleor and Adams rated much higher than our B&F and Coleman winner. Yeah nah

I love garbage like this.

My Collingwood mates will go hard over it until the real stuff starts. Then the reality hits.

BTW, Rance at 54, I don't think so.

how does a bloke who kicks just 14 goals for the yr even qualify in any sort of fwd equation.Yet that bloke is considered the best mid /fwd in the comp absolutely laughable.

The mid /fwd section is a joke rewarding blokes who arent great fwds and in a lot of cases did not excel in the top echelons as mids. How do some qualify for this and blokes like Martin and Dangerfield dont.

The top 100 would contain 80 players who spend a lot of time thru the midfield and has little reflection on who is the better player in what roles  or roles they perform.

Statistic based nonsense rules in the afl.

McGovern and Rance are the two highest ranked KPD'S Thats about right id say. They are being compared to mids who do have a far greater statistical influence on games if not a genuine influence

Anyone who pays any sort of credability to this nonsense is in ga ga land.
