I don't think Davis is AA just yet but S2B is right in regards to last weekend. Davis was very good. Blanketed Garlett when on him and then went forward to provide a spark, and he did.

He has been AA before they like that.
They love stats and his 72/72 kick in ratio from behinds will give them a woody.
And it is a good story -Former AA player dropped from GF team and looking gone going on 30 Y/O amazingly goes up the other end of the field to become AA again. It is a feel good story they can sell.
Leon will get in you can just see it all falling into line.

This stat is absolute rubbish yet Collingwood supporters continue to keep bring it up. LONG KICKS TO A CONTEST ARE NEVER RECORDED AS AN ERROR.
And lol @ feel good story, great reason for someone to get an AA nod.

Updated team 3/4 into the season:
B: Scarlett - McPharlin - Scotland
HB: Deledio - Reid - Fisher
C: Pendlebury - Judd - Wells
HF: Thomas - Cloke - Fyfe
F: Swan - Franklin - Petrie
R: Cox - Ablett (C) - Murphy
INT: Goldstein - Mitchell - Griffen - Thompson
Next in line - O'Keefe, Kelly, Harvey, Swallow, Priddis, etc. Few bad games from others and they would be in.
Swan been pretty good since returning from Arizona. Maybe a bit premature putting him in but will be in most teams within the next few weeks. In the FP because A) He's spent a fair bit of time there this year and is averaging nearly 1.5 goals a game (which is as much as someone like a Harvey). It would make more sense than the other year when he was plonked in the forward line.
B) Don't think the likes of Garlett have done enough to be AA this year. He's been good but not good enough IMO. A good last 1/4 of the season could see him in and team shifted around.

Barnzy, Deledio is no chance.
I doubt Richmond will have any players unless Roo steps up or Cotchin corrects his form slide.

Averaging 25 quality touches a game. More than most HBF'ers. Rarely gets involved in the chip to chip to boost those stats like Enright, Shaw, etc. Been our most consistent player all year along with Cotchin. I don't see how he's "no chance". Keep your Deledio rubbish off this thread. It's tiring.
I understand where you are coming from, but I'd probably have James Kelly edging him, Kelly was probably leading Geelongs B&F at the halfway stage of the season.
Early form can't be dismissed.
Kelly has been good and is on the fringe of the team but has fallen away lately. Hasn't been as consistent. His end of the season should make or break him.

His handball ratio is a concern for a HBF.
He does it too much, an elite kicker should be kicking the ball more.
Shannon Hurn, Enright, Scotland, Fisher hell throw a Griffen on a half back flank and they are all more deserving.

How the hell is Garlett still in people's AA teams? Is having a good year but by no means having an AA quality year.
I noticed the afl website had Lecras in their team at the moment which I thought was ridiculous until I looked at his stats. His season is actually quite similar to Steve Johnsons in 07. Missed 4/5 games at the start of the year but finished strongly and at this rate Lecras will finish with similar stats to Johnson that year. Good enough for that last FP spot?

I was thinking about that the other night. Him and Dal Santo are sneaking up on the midfield group.

Top 20 mids for the year? As always I might have forgotten someone.

He's actually had a very good year. Just hasn't been noticed as much because he's not playing deep forward.
Moloney?
The actual figure is 72 times, and its not just long bombs he is credited with.
Davis has kicked in 72 times this year with a retention of possession of the ball by Collingwood of 100%. It's not a disposal efficiency stat they're referring to. He hasn't hit a bloke on the tit 72 times, but we have retained possession 100% of the times he has kicked in, even if it was a long kick to a contest, it just means we won the contest.

Very hard to do there are a few players that are stiff
Tarrant could easily go in has not been beaten for about 10 weeks
OKeefe has been great but dropped off same as Steve Johnson
Lecras i feel has not played enough games
Boyd first 10 weeks were as good as anybody but has dropped off the past month would love to put him in but can not find a spot
