Welcome to Zero Hanger's top 50 player rankings for 2025 - a list based primarily on a player's 2025 production in addition to their career pedigree and future projections.
The bar is as high as ever to impact as an AFL footballer consistently, let alone to a star level. All-Australian discussions are in constant debate as several guns often find themselves snubbed from proper recognition.

10th - Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera
2024 rank: N/A
Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera's value is undeniable at 22 years old. While largely featuring off half-back in 2025, the latter half of the season saw him become a key figure in St Kilda's engine room.
In the final six games of the season, Wanganeen-Milera attended close to 70% of all centre bounces and dominated in that role, averaging 31.0 disposals, 5.4 inside 50s, 6.2 clearances and 1.6 goals per game.
The move to the midfield highlights the enormous impact he'll have for years to come and certainly suggests a more permanent role as a midfielder in 2026 is on the cards, which could see him surge into Brownlow Medal conversations early into the campaign.
