Best Midfield

Best: Western Bulldogs


Yes, even without star running machine Bailey Smith, the Western Bulldogs go into the 2024 season boasting the best midfield ensemble. Luke Beveridge's on-ball division is spearheaded by Marcus Bontempelli (who has polled 33 and 29 Brownlow votes in two of the last three seasons), with he and hard-nut Tom Liberatore the No. 1 and 2-ranked players for average rating points last season, and two of the top four contested possession winners. That duo thrive off the ruck dominance of dynamic All-Australian Tim English, whose capacity to cover the ground and impact matches in all areas is second to none. The Dogs have a perfect blend of inside grunt and outside class; the explosiveness of Adam Treloar and clean ball use of Jack Macrae and Caleb Daniel rounding out the likely starting division. Expect players such as former Demon James Harmes and highly-touted draftee Ryley Sanders to get plenty of minutes, too.
