2020'S DRAFTEES RE-RANKED: Who bolts up the order, who slides?
Some players from the 2020 draft class shone this season, but others took a while to get going.

31. Jamarra Ugle-Hagan (Pick No.1, Western Bulldogs), 18.7 Rating Points, av 3.7ppg

Does that mean if JUH decided to move to another club our return would be a second round.
I would like to see this at the end of next year and hopefully JUH has a full pre season and a full year of football.

It is actually a crap article. You can't re rank players after one season. Let's see in 5 years time where they all sit.

It doesn't even qualify as that.

Simply it is the AFL Ratings applied to 2020 draftees as a rating per game. It has no value in assessing progress at this point.

None of the players have achieved a rating that would have them set up as stars of the game.

It looks like Marra and Bont have been hanging out during the off season (as highlighted across both Bont's and Marra's socials). This has to be a very good thing.

No doubt the same ranking system that had Lewis Taylor ahead of Marcus after year 1.

I know your not being serious, but the one that had Lewis Taylor ahead was a direct influence on the voting integrity of the judging panel.

Justin Leppitsch as Brisbane coach campaigned strongly for Taylor as a point of recognition when Brisbane had been struggling to retain players. There may have also been a suggestion that a member of the voting panel was seduced by the betting odds.

In the voting KB also selected Taylor over Bont. I guess everyone is capable of a brain fade.
Anyway that's all water under the bridge and we all know Bont is star player.

That is the laziest article i have seen written in a long time, and it has been a dire two years for journalism.

Surely after ranking them by the AFL player ratings you take one look and go, "nah this is a shit idea".

It is a very small sample size to make the call and will change a fair bit over the next 2 or 3 years.
The real question is that given what we have seen so far in one season are there any howlers that went in the first round and the answer is still not clear.

You underestimate the need for content in a quiet time for AFL. Quantity over quality every damn time.

Spot on - you just need to run your eyes over that list once to realise it makes absolutely no sense to use that data to rank the players at this point.

Complete click bait rubbish, and I feel stupider for having read it !

Sure you can. You just have to understand it in the context of one person's opinion regarding who had the best first year post being drafted. That's all it is.

Sorry to disagree as it is not anyone's opinion.

This is actually AFL player ratings and then putting an order based on the average rating per game.

It is certainly an odd interpretation of player ranking considering that it relates to so few games and even as few as a single game for some.

So it's a ratings based system of who had the best year immediately after being drafted rather than an individual's opinion. Thanks for clarifying without looking too deeply into it I assumed it was an individual journo's opinion. Well, at least it's measurable somehow i suppose.

How many games do we expect JUH to play next season? I'm expecting him in as the third tall behind Naughton and English, at least until Bruce is back.
