TOP 10 Players aged 21 and under

[AG]

Anyone who doesn't have Andrejs Everitt listed has rocks in their heads.

 

[.Shotties.]

That was Cunnington.

No, it was Rohan.

And this is one of the worst BigFooty posts I've ever seen.

Not the worst post, just a short memory. Tippett was very good in '09 with a goal/behind ratio of 63% but dropped a peg in '10 to 57%, prior to '09 he was atrocious and his action was horrendous.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Sidebottom was as good as the Norm Smith medalist. It would not have been a surprise if he'd won it and he was the youngest player on the ground - and a teenager at that. Add his 2010 finals to his final v Adelaide at the end of his first year and he's number 1 for mine.

Having kicked 10 goals in the TAC GF he is a proven finals performer. Nothing counts for more than that. At the very least he is the best midfielder under 21 and he'll be the same next year and the year after that!

I'd have Martin in my team every day of the week ahead of Sidebottom.

 

[W. Smithers]

LOL at people still thinking Cotchin will be a superstar. Will be a good player no doubt but lacks the explosiveness to a superstar.

After all their tanking, Melbourne supporters are a little bitter that other teams may have youngsters that are good as theirs.

x2 for any list without John Ceglar.

Especially coming from AG, always gives an educated opinion and almost never biased!

 

[volders]

I reckon Krezuer is just about the most underrated youngster I have seen in decades of watching football. These threads incorporate too much hype.

EDIT: Good effort volders

Will be an absolute star, wish we lost that game rd 22 2007, if I could pick any player in the league to add to our list it would be him by a country mile.

 

[W. Smithers]

One guy I think everyone has forgotten about because he busted his leg, Michael Barlow. He was having quite a tidy first season before tragedy struck.

mine was based purely on potential

Kruezer has undoubtedly performed better, but NN could be a once in a generation player

he may not, but there you have it

david myers was a first round draft pick a few years ago. still shows a lot of promise, cant believe no one has him in their top ten lists.

 

[Marc Shmurf 3]

Um, we don't need no age calculator, just look at the Demons website, you have his birthday wrong. You are wrong. Yes Marc Shmurf, you are wrong.

You don't like what you see in a 19 year old playing in a Grand Final though? I think nearly every Carlton fan alive would kill you if you went for Bastinac over Sidebottom if you were a Carlton recruiter and were given the choice...then again, perhaps you thought Bastinac was still 16??

Did you read the first line of that link? I'd trust the MFC website more than wikipedia...especially when it has two contrasting birthdays. Anyway point is, Jurrah is 22.

By the club website he's 22, by wiki he's 21. I'd probably go with the club website. If he was born on the 9th Nov 1988 he is definitely 21 though.

Liam Anthony slipping under the radar also.

Dude, the first line of that article says he was born on the 23rd of September...I'd say the club is a little more trustworthy.

 

[WakeUpPies]

Who the hell goes by Wikipedia, I can change Jurriah's birthday to 69/69/6969.

Tanking doesn't always equal success - see Carlton.
