TOP 3 PLAYERS IN ALL VICTORIAN CLUB “Dale Thomas Lines Up For Goals” Talking to the coaches of the stars of footy !
Collingwood: 1: Dale Thomas. I think Dale is certainly number one because he is a positive attribute to the club, a great mark, and has pulled of some cool tricks in the past. 2:Travis Cloke. Most people that have seen him play would instantly realise he is the AFL’s greatest mark. But after finally being taught how to kick, he has come back to kick the third most goals in the AFL. 3: Andrew Krakouer. Despite being recently jailed, he has risen to become a Collingwood legend. He has kicked you wouldn’t think possible to kick, and has taken a contender for mark of the year.
Bulldogs 1: Mathew Boyd. Having the most AFL possessions this year, he is certainly an inspiring player for all. Being a good kick and a fast runner, he will be great for years to come. 2: Callan Ward. After being asked to play for Greater Western Sydney, he has all of a sudden become a lot more important than he

was. A young rising star, he is a great player, and will be great for years Bulldogs or not!
“Callan Ward dives for the ball against the Essendon Bombers”
3:Luke Dalehouse. He is a great midfielder, with even greater hair. He is an exceptional player, due to his fast pace and good decision making. Booting the occasional goal, he will play good footy for years to come, I can guarantee.
Richmond 1:Jack Riewoldt. He is cousins with St Kilda’s captain Nick Riewoltd, so you would imagine he is very good. He is!. He has kicked some unbelievable goals, and is a good mark. It also helps being a good kick (unlike his cousin). He will captain Richmond for years to come. 2:Dustin Martin. He has improved since he first came to Richmond by far. He is a phenomenal kick, and a good strong midfield. He knows how to carry the ball under pressure. He was a stand out against Sydney (which led to a win), and played well against Melbourne the following week. 3: Brett Deledio. He is fast, energetic, and has helped Richmond many times. He knows how to kick and handball efficiently, and he uses that to his advantage. He will become a legend if he keeps this up.
St Kilda 1:Nick Riewoltd. He is the captain of a team that has made the biggest comeback of 2011. St Kilda was previously 13th on the ladder, meaning there finals dreams were over. But Nick made the dream a reality, taking countless marks and making good decisions that put his team into 6th place. But unfortunately they were defeated by Sydney, who were battling for a spot in the eight. Now Nick will be trying his limits and putting his body on the line for that last chance. 2:Brendon Goddard. He was a stand out against Collingwood (unfortunately) in the 2010 grand final, taking a mark and kicking the goal that put St Kilda in the lead for the first time in the game. An excellent kick and a good fast player, he will be in top form come the finals. 3:Stephen Milne. A great player that can pull off some sweet tricks, Milne is a player that the Saint’s really want to keep a hold of. He has pace that opponents envy, and he has a dead
Melbourne 1:Jack Trengove. A fantastic player that wears the famous number 9, the number Jimmy Stynes wore when he played for Melbourne. 2: Colin Sylvia. He played well against Richmond in round 22, kicking three goals, and having an astounding 37 disposals. He has played well in both the 2010 clashes against Collingwood, and has done exceptionally well this year. His efforts are amazing. 3:Jarred Rivers. He has been in the top 5 players for 7 years in a row now, 5 of which he was second best. He has pulled off some good tricks in the past, which makes a good club player. He also has come 4th in the 2005 Brownlow medal competition.
A fantastic player that strives hard every day, he is a legend 3:Liam Jurrah. He trys his hardest every single day. He marks with pride and shoots with ease. I know he will impress his fans.
