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?

7Harry Sheezel 

Ratings Points: 1925.2

North's best player and a future star of the competition- if not already has not disappointed in his 2026 campaign thus far. Even if Sheezel hasn't gone up against the best of teams, his ball use and contested game have improved, all the while providing big moments via his 4th quarter goal to win the game on Good Friday against Carlton.
