A Graders

[Lightning McQueen]

How do we define A Graders?

Can we do a club by club list?

[Corona Man]

All I know, going by the SA media, that the Crows have 40 of them.

Cameron & Lever.

Everyone's definition of an A-Grader is different i believe.
For me, Port have 3. We would have a lot of B to B+ type players though

Gray
Dixon

I'd probably have Murphy in there for the Blues, not a Kruezer fan?

Where would you fit Rockliff & Gibbs?

Any GWS representatives?

[Lightning McQueen]

Jacobs and M Crouch stiff Boon

To his defense he whipped up the list pretty bloody quick, Sauce would have to be squeezed in there.

All open to discussion boys, someone had to start the list somewhere!

How do we define A Graders?

How would I define it? One or more of the following


- Ranked as elite by champion data - they know what they are talking about.
- Multiple All Australians or at least somewhere close to the mark (i.e multiple 40 man squads)
- High up in their clubs best and fairest consistently

Sydney - Franklin, Kennedy, Parker, Hannebery ( Heeney, Jones, Rampe )

I reckon that’s pretty spot on, but I reckon You could add Mills to that bracket list... Mills and Heeney will be A grader without a shadow of a doubt.
Rampe and Grundy would have to be very close too. Just going on form the last 2 years

Port Adelaide - R.Gray, Wingard, Wines, Ryder ( Dixon, Ebert )

Agree with this Boon. Was being conservative with my first pick. All of them have cases to be classed as A Grade players. I would probably swap Dixon with Wingard but that's just my preference.

Cameron & Lever.

Walker and Jenkins

They retired after the prelim final.
Probably making a comeback at the start of 2018

Not out yet isn't it?

Got it last year, my son practically memorized it, at least I knew where to find it when I wanted to look something up.
