    What does everyone think of Mike's Top 50 so far? The missing 10 have to be certainties, it's just the order in question. For mine:

    Judd
    Pendlebury
    Franklin
    Swan
    Ablett
    Mitchell
    Cloke
    Glass
    Selwood
    Murphy

    Thoughts?

    Taylor in for Glass?

    Surely couldn't be any other cats - already named:

    Corey
    Bartel
    Enright
    Scarlett
    Kelly
    Johnson

    + Selwood and maybe Taylor in top 10...

    It will be Rioli instead of Glass, top 10: Judd, Pendlebury, Franklin, Swan, Ablett, Mitchell, Cloke, Rioli, Selwood, and Murphy.

    I find it interesting that the rate your own top 50 doesn't include Gibson or Sewell.

    Glass would have to be very unluckly, considering he was named AA full back.

    Cox already named.

    Pfft Rioli in Top 10. That would be a mistake, far too much flash-in-the-pan and then gone again during season 2011 from Rioli.

    It is Mike Sheehan though, Jason.

    FWIW, swap Kennedy with Priddis.

    Barry Hall had a better year than Rioli, from only 15 games. And I'm not suggesting Barry should be in the Top 50 either.

    Do people seriously read this tripe. Just a couple that really stand out are:

    Stephen Milne at 50
    Luke Ball at 22
    Nick Dal Santo at 19 - 2nd in the Brownlow!!!
    Sam Fisher at 17 - Shouldnt be above Dal Santo

    Rioli in top 10...

    Joel Duckwood is bloody lucky to be that high

    SKT, NDS powered home but didn't set the world on fire in the opening rounds of 2011. I don't have a problem with this ranking to be honest. Slightly better than Boyd - that's about right.

    At least Rioli wasn't in Top10 of Mike's list.

    I still think Judd's influence on season 2011 was overrated by most in the media.
