this is where it all happens.
Grand Final's are often won and lost on the quality of the ball magnests that each side posseses in the middle of the field. Whether they be speedy runners, inside work horses, or skillfull leaders, the right combination of all is essential if a side wants to be there in september.
As we are in the pre-season (silly season) it's always nice to put up hypotheticals posts and to bring out the Nostradamus within, so i thought i'd list each clubs main midfielders and rate them in order as i see it for the coming season. (excluding the ruckmen)
I'm interested in seeing how other people rate them, it's actually not easy.
