An athlete's ability is always being examined and analysed, with most of the time being done so under subjective eyes, but what if there was a more objective way to judge it?

With Zero Hanger's AFL Player Ratings, it is now possible to judge these players and assess where their seasons ranked among their peers.

The fan-voted AFL Player Rater compares two players against each other based on their position by using a certified Elo rating algorithm- the same system used in global sports rankings to produce the live and real-time results.

Looking at the next generation of AFL stars (under 23), where do they rank by combining their performance, ability to beat opponents and the public's own opinion to form our new AFL Player Rating system?

1Nick Daicos

Ratings Points: 2100.8  

Some call him the best player in the AFL, with the former premiership player being one of the only bright spots for a Collingwood side that has struggled to live up to expectations. With the 39-disposal game against Carlton and the game he didn't play against Brisbane, making it clear just how important Daicos is to the Magpies system.
