Pretty impressive for someone who almost didn't make AFL level!!!

and look at the names below him;

S Black (BL) 76
M Riccuito (Adel) 76
N Riewoldt (StK) 75
P Bell (Frem) 69
B Hall (Syd) 68
A Jones (StK) 67
L Hayes (StK) 66
J Akermanis (BL) 65

some fairly impressive names he has beaten

[Cheer Cheer]

Still no recognition of Leo Barry...AGAIN

He deserved to be ahead of Jude at the very least, Kirk arguable, but Hall is our No.1 player.

[ScottH]

Hall, beat Kirk in the HS, just.

Jude Bolton in the Top 50????

*GASP!*

What will the RWO-Trade-Jude-Bolton-Immediately-For-A-DECENT-Player-Intelligentsia think!!!

That many votes in the awards are based on number of disposals, as noted on a number of occasions this year...

Surely no one honestly thinks J Bolton is better than N Lappin or J Hird...?

Although surely you'd have to say you'd prefer Jude on your list next year than Hird, since Hird is likely to be gone by the end of 2005.

For sure - I'd prefer Bolton to a lot of players in the competition, which I guess is hardly surprising given that there are over 500 players and I would put Bolton in the top 100, and there are a number, like Hird, who are far superior but have limited time left.

So what's in the article? Registration is required to read it and I refuse to register for privacy reasons.

Not an article - just a list of the top 50 players in The Age award.

www.bugmenot.com is a great site if like me, you hate registering for media sites such as the age.

Just another thought on this - if we could have Hird just this finals series and not have Bolton all next year then I would take that swap. Adding a player like Hird to our side could be enough to give us a flag.
