Our newest series is a new perspective on power rankings. With most power rankings looking the same in each instalment, Rising Stars writer Jourdan Canil has begun the form power rankings, with the top 20 players ranked on week to week form.
\nIt’s important to keep in mind that these are not draft rankings. However, it gives an insight into the best bolters and sliders.
\nThe AFL Academy players faced the Werribee VFL team. Due to the tougher opponents, they may get ranked higher despite others being more dominant at TAC Cup level. Also, all average stats are from TAC Cup ONLY.<\/p>\n

1. Jade Gresham (Small DEF\/MID) – Northern Knights (Same)<\/strong>
\nThe new Knights captain is clearly the best performed TAC Cup player so far. This week he had 38 disposals at a ridiculous 87% efficiency as well as 18 handball receives, eight marks and four tackles.
\nAVG STATS: 32 disposals (74 per cent disposal efficiency), eight marks, 11 hand ball receives, five tackles and one goal.<\/p>\n

2. Jacob Hopper (MID) – North Ballarat Rebels (Up two)<\/strong>
\nHopper dominated the Rebels first game, then followed it up well against Werribee for the AFL Academy with 18 disposals (14 contested), seven clearances and 12 tackles.
\nAVG STATS: Four\u00a0goals, 27 disposals (74% DE), six\u00a0handball receives, six\u00a0marks and four\u00a0tackles.<\/p>\n

3. Ryan Clarke (MID) – Eastern Ranges (Down one)<\/strong>
\nClarke looks like a highlight machine. He\u2019s shown serious consistency too, and looks an early bolter. 27 disposals. two goals, ten handball receives, six marks and four tackles. His game and body resembles Nathan Freeman although he\u2019s not quite as quick or anywhere near as good by foot.
\nAVG STATS: 28 disposals (62% DE), two goals, six marks, 10 handball receives and five tackles.<\/p>\n

4. Michael Mattingly (MID\/Medium DEF) – Northern Knights (Down one)<\/strong>
\nMattingly had another great game, with 30 disposals, 18 handball receives and a goal to his name. His stocks are rising fast.
\nAVG STATS: 28 disposals (80% DE), 17 handball receives and five\u00a0marks.<\/p>\n

5. Tom Wilkinson (MID) – Sandringham Dragons (Up 14)<\/strong>
\nThe 19 year old doesn\u2019t have trouble racking up the ball. His 37 disposals against the Knights contained 23 handballs, of which 21 hit the target.
\nAVG STATS: 27 disposals (77% DE), 0.7 goals, five marks and five tackles.<\/p>\n

6. Brayden Fiorini (MID\/Medium DEF) – Northern Knights (Up eight)<\/strong>
\nI\u2019ve been bullish on Fiorini since mid last year. He\u2019s one of the cleanest ball users in the TAC Cup in the mould of a Kade Kolodjashnij. Had a monster game this week with 37 disposals, 19 handball receives and 12 marks, seven\u00a0tackles and a goal.
\nAVG STATS: 25 disposals (87% DE), ten marks and 13 handball receives, three tackles.<\/p>\n

7. Darcy Parish (MID) – Geelong Falcons (Down two)<\/strong>
\nParish wound up with 21 disposals (eight contested) for the Academy, with five marks, four clearances four inside 50s and a goal.
\nAVG STATS: 34 disposals (65% DE), eight handball receives and four marks.<\/p>\n

8. Lachie Tardrew (MID) – Bendigo Pioneers (Up two)<\/strong>
\nDespite getting flogged by two weeks in a row, Tardrew has proven a bright spot for the Pioneers. He racked up 33 disposals at 82% disposal efficiency
\nAVG STATS: 30 disposals (81% DE), 17 handball receives, four tackles and 0.5 goals.<\/p>\n

9. Matthew Johnston (Small FWD) \u2013 North Ballarat Rebels (NEW)<\/strong>
\nJohnston came out of obscurity to dominate the Pioneers in his second game. He kicked 6 goals straight from 13 touches and four tackles.
\nAVG STATS: 16.5 disposals (64% efficiency), three goals, four marks and five tackles.<\/p>\n

10. Blake Hardwick (Medium FWD\/MID) – Eastern Ranges (Down four)<\/strong>
\nHardwick kicked eight goals in a huge win in week one, and although he\u2019s dropped off a bit, he\u2019s finding plenty of football for a half forward and still hitting the scoreboard in a major way.
\nAVG STATS: Four goals, 19 disposals (65% DE) and seven marks (one contested).<\/p>\n

11. Nick O’Kearney (MID) – Calder Cannons (Down two)<\/strong>
\nWe know O’Kearney is a wonderful accumulator, but he needs to become a consistently better kick. He played well against Werribee for the AFL Academy, with 22 disposals, four clearances, six tackles and eight marks.
\nAVG STATS: 26.5 disposals (74% DE), seven marks and seven handball receives.<\/p>\n

12. Nash Holmes (MID) Gippsland Power (NEW)<\/strong>
\nHolmes dominated against the Bushies, with 21 of his 30 disposals hitting the target. He also had nine tackles, a goal and 13 handball receives.
\nAVG STATS: 27 disposals (69% DE), 10.5 tackles, four marks and nine handball receives.<\/p>\n

13. Jacob Weitering (Key Def) \u2013 Dandenong Stingrays (NEW)<\/strong>
\nWeitering did a really solid job defending for the Academy. 15 disposals at 87% efficiency, with eight marks (six were taken by quarter time!) and he also showed his offensive capabilities with four rebound 50s.
\nAVG STATS: 21 disposals (81% DE), seven handball receives, eight marks (two contested)<\/p>\n

14. Mark Koracevic (RUCK) \u2013 Calder Cannons (NEW)<\/strong>
\nThe 19-year old dominated this week with 29 hitouts, a goal, 23 disposals and four marks (three were contested!)
\nAVG STATS: 31 hitouts, 17 disposals, 0.5 goals, two tackles and four marks (two contested).<\/p>\n

15. Will Brodie (MID) \u2013 Murray Bushrangers (NEW)<\/strong>
\nTwo goals, a behind, 29 disposals and six tackles catapulted Brodie into the form guide this week.
\nAVG STATS: 24 disposals (75% DE), five marks, five tackles and eight handball receives.<\/p>\n

16. Tyler Roos (MID) \u2013 Sandringham Dragons (NEW)<\/strong>
\nThe Lions elected not to take Roos under the father son system last year. The Dragons captain had 25 disposals and two goals for the Dragons this week, with his burst of speed being a real highlight.
\nAVG STATS: 22 disposals (64% DE), 0.6 goals per game, 11 handball receives, five marks (one contested) and five tackles.<\/p>\n

17. Tom Condon (MID) \u2013 Calder Cannons (NEW)<\/strong>
\nCondon finished with 26 disposals against the Ranges, with 23 of them hitting the target. After not laying a single tackle in his first two games, Condon laid eight this weekend.
\nAVG STATS: 18 disposals (89% DE), three tackles, seven handball receives and four marks.<\/p>\n

18. Kieran Malone (Med FWD\/ MID) \u2013 Northern Knights (NEW)<\/strong>
\nMalone has serious x-factor, so he often does serious damage with his usage, but his first two weeks were quiet. He returned to form on the weekend with 25 disposals, seven marks, five tackles and a goal.
\nAVG STATS: 17 disposals (49% DE), five handball receives, two scoring shots per game, four marks and three tackles.<\/p>\n

19. Tom Phillips (Medium DEF) – Oakleigh Chargers (NEW)<\/strong>
\nPhillips showed his wonderful all round game, with his hard running allowing him to do damage with rebounds and inside 50s. He\u2019s been very consistent so far, with a 25 disposal, 14 handball receive game capping off week three.
\nAVG STATS: 23.5 disposals (68% DE), six marks, 10 handball receives and one goal.<\/p>\n

20. Anthony Brolic (MID) – Eastern Ranges (Down three)<\/strong>
\nBrolic was sensational in round one with 30 disposals in a 150 point win, and although he\u2019s dropped off a bit, 21 disposals and 11 marks keeps him in the top 20.
\nAVG STATS: 21 disposals (87% DE), six handball receives, seven marks and two tackles.<\/p>\n

Stocks Falling:
\n<\/strong>
\nTom Wallis (MID) – Calder Cannons<\/strong>
\nWallis showed his ability to find the footy again this week, with 21 disposals. However, 14 of those disposals were ineffective. However, his eight tackles were a highlight.
\nAVG STATS: 20 disposals (54% DE), three marks and eight handball receives.<\/p>\n

Zak Wunhym (Small FWD \/ MID) \u2013 Calder Cannons<\/strong>
\nWunhym is an exceptional accumulator. Whilst his height has been an issue, it was his disposal efficiency that proved to be a problem for recruiters this week. Wunhym kicked two behinds and had 23 disposals at 52% DE. However he took 6 marks, three of those being contested and had seven tackles.
\nAVG STATS: 21 disposals (59% DE), five marks (one contested), five tackles and six handball receives.<\/p>\n

Judah Dundon (MID) \u2013 Western Jets<\/strong>
\nDundoh had 34 touches for the Jets on the weekend. Yet 16 of his disposals were ineffective, and 50% of his kicks missed the target.
\nAVG STATS: 22 disposals (66% DE), nine handball receives and four marks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
