He was even more viable for AA contention than Cunners or Brown, and he still wasn't selected....FMD
.... when I scrolled through the nominations.. saw Brown, 2nd coleman, figured hed be in the 40.. saw Cunners thought, yeah okay, based on his form for the first 14 weeks, ok.... then ....... what??????

A load of fu**en horse s**t

Our players should make a pact - anytime the question of being in the AAyeqm next season arises - their response should be that we’re not interested in Mickey Mouse teams selected by a bunch of bell ends.

What a joke.

What more does the bloke need to do?

Hadn't lost a 1 on 1 til 4-5 weeks out from the end of the season

The reality is we need to be a top four side to get blokes like Taz in the AA side, as we don't have the profile. There's no way known Talia had a better season, but he is a higher profile player so easier to justify.
 
Who made it: Daniel Talia (Adelaide)
Who could have: Robbie Tarrant (North Melbourne)

No one defended more one-on-one contests than Talia, whose 103 dwarfed Tarrant's 63. Tarrant narrowly won more of them than Talia (36.5 per cent to 34), but the Crow lost only 22.3 per cent of his compared to the Kangaroo's 30.2. Talia also had more spoils (154-139) and tackles (48-37) and had fewer goals kicked on him, but took fewer intercept marks (40-47). His defensive prowess must have won the selectors over, because Tarrant was clearly the more offensive player of the two. Tarrant comfortably had more disposals, metres gained, rebound 50s, inside 50s and score involvements.

What constitutes a 1 on 1 contest and why is there such a varying figure for the stat between what we heard and what this article says?

The secrecy of champion data is a blight on the game. All these stats being given to us by the media but we have no way to verify them.
