No-one cares what Robbo thinks, DTM. Focus on what the players say - they have 4 'Pies in the top 50. |

At the moment we have one definite A grader.
With 3 or 4 who may be there if they come to town.
So I think he is on the money. _________________ we don't eat our own at collingwood we just allow them to foul our nest.

Robbo's paid to have an opinion on football! Plain and simple.
His top 50 is ridiculously bad especially with players like Judd and Murphy being listed so high but the top 50 was also a farce when Mike Sheahan was compiling his list for nearly two decades annually so I wouldn't take this to heart.
I've lost the will to care about what footy journalists think to be honest so the best thing we can do is let the footy do the talking and prove the so-called experts wrong this year. _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |

Who cares, its just one blokes opinion.
Intended to get bites, be click bait and sell papers.
Seems he's done his job.
For what it's worth, going on last season...Cloke wouldnt be in to top 150.
He was shite, and needs a big year to justify his big dollars.
Elliott, yeah sure...looks the goods, but needs to deliver more than one OK season to deserve a spot in the Top 50 players of the entire comp. |

Fair reflection on our 2014 season. Beams was also deemed worthy, Sidebottom unlucky not to be included. |

Don't worry about Robbo, he has been on a bender since Starc knocked over McCullum yesterday afternoon. The Aussies joined him last night. _________________ Human behavioural studies suggest people who use a lot of swear words tend to be more honest & trustworthy. |

Ever since our great club failed to get one, one star, in the AFL so called shit team of the century, I have never taken one iota notice of these pricks and their opinions. Their opinions are like assholes, and we all have one ! _________________ Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.

Year in and out Buckley was the most consistently outstanding player in the AFL and year in and out Mike Sheahan would put flogs like Voss and Tird and Robert Harvey ahead of him despite statistically inferior performances but he'd constantly come up with some pie in the sky intangibles to downgrade Bux and big up the others.
I noted he did his top 50 of the last 25 years and still had the same blokes plus a few others ahead of him with Buckley coming in at a distant 16th. I'll bare my arse in Bourke Street if ther's been 15 better players than Buckley in the last quarter century.
Robbo is a poor mans Sheahan so him neglecting Pies players at the expense of some heavily hyped players from other clubs is no surprise. |

Hird was twice the player of Buckley.
Possibly took way more Performance Enhancing Drugs, but still.
He was - by any quantifiable measure. |

I thought that is very Harsh on Cloke and Elliot
Funny how he has quite a few of the team he barracks for the Peptite Bummers: |
Why would Cloke be in anyone's top 50? If his contract was coming up now he'd be lucky to get a fraction of the 900k he got last time, he's turned into a hack. _________________ Defender...........
