I'd say the team with no rangas would be the winner

Think again about Collingwood's idiginous talent...
Davis and Medhurst would arguably be in the top five Indiginous talent. Than it does go downhill but these players are in the team, young and have bright futures, Wellingham, Dick and Cox. Than there is Corrie is handy.
It has been underrated in this thread.

Not aboriginal he is Sri Lankan, Adam Varcoe and Stevon Motlop have only played about two games between them in the VFL. Still got a long way to go.

Uh.....Sri Lankin
Dad was Born In barbados, which makes him West Indian
Port/Hawks would be the top 2, Ild have hawks at first however,
Franklin is a top 10 player in the comp, and you would have Rioli/Bateman in the top 50
Except that he is of Singaporean descent.
am i wrong in thinking that michael osborne is part-aboriginal?? if so, he would be the decider for those unsure of hawks vs ports vs pies vs dons, surely.
i could be wrong, but i've got a feeling he is.

Ryder, Lovett, Dempsey, Davey and Jetta are all far better than Collingwood's players except Davis.

Yeah I have, but I havn't seen too many who are white with blue eyes though.
Aboriginals could potentially have blue eyes so i think the term you are searching for is 'aryan or caucasion players'?
Wirrapanda, Cockie and Bedford
yeah!
With the quality of rookies still around why did West Coast use their first pick on Bedford. Failed on Geelong's list and now he's in the WAFL reserves. Is he carrying an injury or is there something special I'm not seeing in him?

Dick has clearly shown more than Jetta and there couldn't be a more like for like comparison.
Wellingham has shown as much as Dempsey and Cox is pretty good. If I was to rank Collingwood's and Essendon's together it would read...
Davis
Medhurst (although people are telling me he is of asian decent)
Ryder
Lovett
Davey
Wellingham-Dempsey
Dick
Cox
I'd say COllingwood wins in the battle of indiginous players...
I was thinking the exact same thingCameron Ling could rip em up singlehandedly
Hawks by a mile! No competition.
Franklin and Cyril alone take the cake. Throw in Bateman and Williams and it's a no-brainer.
Franklin is better than Collingwood's alone.
Williams, Bateman, Rioli and Stokes massacre Collingwood's contingnent. Both in talent and runs on the board.
Leon Davis is the only one who could compete as a peer with the Hawk boys. I will give bonus points to Dick who was magnificent on Monday, I look forward to his further development.
Ediriwickrama is Sri Lankan.
Goodes and Davis have been the best this year. McLeod is the best over his career. Franklin has the most potential. There are a few ways you can rate them. Most of Ports indigenous players have been pretty flat recently.
That name just rolls off the tongue. Commentators will have fun with that one.
