Nick Dal Santo names his top 10 players of the decade

By SEN
14 November 2019


The only criteria is the quality of footy played from the beginning of the 2010 season until the end of 2019.

1. Scott Pendlebury
2. Patrick Dangerfield

3. Dustin Martin

“Dusty is the most significant player of the past three years, but his brilliance also stems back to his debut season in 2010."

“He’s missed just seven games since debuting.

“Two premierships, two Norms, a Brownlow, three All-Australians, two best and fairest, two best finals player. The ultimate big-game performer.”


4. Alex Rance

“Has been the pre-eminent defender of the last 10 years. Five consecutive All-Australian blazers highlights that."

“Rance is a great leader who is rarely beaten. A premiership player, best and fairest winner and two-time runner-up as a key defender, which is a remarkable return. A true competitive beast.”


5. Nat Fyfe
6. Luke Hodge
7. Sam Mitchell
8. Gary Ablett
9. Lance Franklin
10. Joel Selwood
