Saw on the SANFL website a few days ago an article by Zac Milbank about an SANFL Top 50 by the Footy Budget.
Only listed numbers 26-50 on the site, did anyone buy the Budget that has the full list?


From the website:

SANFL BUDGET’S TOP 50
By ZAC MILBANK | Twitter @zacmilbank

The SANFL Budget is set to name the best 50 players in the IGA League competition.

After several weeks of consultation and consideration, the much-anticipated list will appear in the Round 16 edition of the SANFL Budget.

But to whet the appetite, the SANFL website has listed those ranked between 26 and 50 below, giving you the chance to predict who will be in the top 25 this weekend.

At No.26, triple Norwood premiership defender Jace Bode is among a cluster of the competition’s best backmen with Redlegs captain Alex Georgiou (No.29) and Eagles skipper Luke Thompson (No.30).

Arguably this year’s best recruit in the SANFL, Central midfielder Chris Jansen, comes in at No.38 after setting the competition alight with his ball-winning ability.

West Adelaide goalsneaks Aaron Fielke (No.46), Shannon Green (No.41) and goalkicking midfielder Kaine Stevens (No.48) are littered throughout the 40s while Norwood swingman Michael Chippendale rounds out the list at No.50.

Two of the SANFL’s most improved players – West midfielder Josh Schiller and Eagles ruckman Marc Borholm – headline the list of honourable mentions.

To find out who is ranked No.1 to No.25, make sure you buy a copy of the Round 16 SANFL Budget for just $3 at all five venues hosting matches for ‘’Super Saturday’’ on August 1.

From the 4 times I've seen him this year that's a high rating for Coad .. Once a top 10 player, he looked past it the times I've seen him, maybe it was just a bad run of form and he's put it behind now?

Surprised that Guifredda is in the last, especially ahead of Dawe, Fielke, Webber and Battersby. Top team player, someone that every team needs, but surely each team has 5 players better than him?
Also thought Thompson may have been a bit higher

Where would you have him?

League's leading goal kicker surely deserves a high rating one would think

Arguably the dominant forward of the league.
If not for such an obsession for midfielders he'd be top 10 for mine

Fair enough to call me out on that one, was just my knee-jerk reaction to seeing his name so high as I glanced down the list. I guess we all see other team's players only a couple of times a year, and I don't recall Alleway ever having much impact against the Dogs. Couple of good grabs and the rest of the game throwing his weight around is my general impression, both at North and Glenelg. And didn't he have a run in the Hills league recently? But I had no idea he was leading the goal kickers list this year, and he deserves some credit for that.

I still think 12 is high. I've never considered him a hard worker in the games I've seen, so I assume he gets his spot on his skill level? There are many higher skilled and harder working players below him on the list. A spot in the second half of the 50 seems more honest.

The Clit is quality. If he had of played for Norwood for the last 3 years he would be a 3 time Ken Farmer medallist. I can understand why opposition supporters love to hate him but he has been fantastic for the Bays. Stats are good and brings others into the game. Would be in the Bays top 5 for B and F I would think as he is consistent.

He is a different cat though. Doesn't own a TV. Classic white line fever poster child. When he pulls on the guernsey and crosses the line you would want him on your side as he gets that mild psychotic look in his eye at times. He is a gentleman and good bloke off it. Talented gene pool as well with a sister who plays for the Matlidas goes alright.

Not a lot of power forwards these days and I think 12 is about right.

Wish he was still at North
He would be a great full forward in the days when full forward's used to hang around the goal square
