Swan at 1???

Ball butcher Boyd at 12 

Judd is that high on reputation.

[Mr Magic]

3 Pies ahead of Cotchin? Not for long..

[dwaino]

Where's the token mention of Hurley?

[tigs2011]

Stopped reading the list at Beams and I hadn't read Cotchin's name. Derpa derp.

[Phil Mrakov]

Cotchin is top 4.

[wayne]

Cotchin is top 4.

Yep, he is, and he would have been there if we were playing finals.

He's better than Watson and Beams. He's been better than Pendlebury this season, and even Swan.

[Damo]

Beams is an out and out superstar

Right there with cotch as 2 of the best young mids in the game

[Tigeritis™©®]

Cotchin is top 4.

Agree. 

[Dubstep Dookie]

'Bigpond' hey?

When did he retire from football?

[jordie2tivendale]

Roughead deserves to be higher than that guy can play just about any position and rarely gets beaten  would  love to see him running around for us

[Smokey]

Agree J2T, would take him in a heartbeat.

[tdy]

I'd have Brad Sewell from Whorethorn in there myself.

[dwaino]

I'd have Brad Sewell from Whorethorn in there myself.

Only just noticed he was missing. I agree. He would be in his career best form too.
