Post season positional rankings are always fun and create a plethora or discussion.
Today we look at the best wide forwards in the competition.
Typically one of the more difficult to rank due to the different types of second rowers.
Some are attacking, wrecking balls, other are defensive specialists while others are workhorses.
Again, this list is based purely off of 2024 performances and aren't necessarily just the ten best second rowers in the game.
Below are the top ten second rowers from 2024:
9. Shawn Blore
I don't think anyone was shocked to see Craig Bellamy turn another fringe reserve grader into a first grade regular.
Shawn Blore had long shown the ability to make his mark at the top level but Bellamy's second row whispering tag just continues to activate.
24 appearances for the Storm saw Blore cross for two tries, produce 39 offloads, make seven line breaks, assist five line-breaks, run for 76 metres per game and tackle at almost 96%.
A tremendous first up season in Melbourne for Blore who now looks every bit the player he showed signs of becoming.
