Toast 5 Lions in All-Australian Squad

[bungalow_bill]

Rich absolutely robbed and Mitch also unlucky.

Although I'd love to see Clugg and Zorks make the final cut, I'm with Ironmonger on this one.

I think Harris, Lachie and Charlie will be it for us,

Disappointed that we only have three players in the AA team. How things have changed!

 

[Pikuks]

Brisbane Lions young defender Harris Andrews is selected at full-back, joined by midfield duo Lachie Neale and Dayne Zorko, as well as electric small forward Charlie Cameron.

Why they have 6 midfielders and no wings is a mystery. Otherwise Hugh McCluggage would have been a shoe-in.

That's not the official AA 22 Pikuks, it's just afl.com opinion.

There you go. Stuffed up again. Looking for a safe place to hide.

We all make mistakes Pikuks, the last bloke who walked around and didn't stuff up... well... they crucified him.

I used to have a boss who was fond of telling everyone that "my next mistake will be my first"

He was an ar**hole

I thought I made a mistake once, but I was wrong.

Lions set for multiple AFL All-Australians

Brisbane's stunning rise to power will be acknowledged on Wednesday night when the AFL All-Australian team is named.

The top sides gets the Lions' share in 2019 All-Australian team

In a fiercely competitive season for representative honours, four clubs dominate my own selections.

Mark Robinson seems to be the only one of the journos who has Clugga in their team. Shame.

Would omit Cunnington from Jake Niall's team to include Hugh. The other article? A little more difficult.

Jon Ralph says “Hugh McCluggage needs to be in this team. It’s just whether he pushes out a star inside mid to do so.”

If they are serious about this team Hugh has to be in.

Dayne Zorko was just on AFL Tonight on video link from Brisbane... so I guess that means he’s not making the final team.

Good pick up; sadly, I think you might be right.

No doubt they've found spots for the usual Vic favourites in Pendlebury and Ablett.

 

[Dylan12]

So Bachar Houli has obviously got the nod.

I don't think he had any better a year than Daniel Rich did, but I guess playing for a big Victorian club, gets you the nod.

Yep, and Cripps and Walters. Unless they’ve invited more than the 22, which I don’t think they’ve done before.

They don't; only invitees.

I watched the Zorko interview live and it didn't even cross my mind at that stage, until you highlighted, that he hadn't made the team.

That is a real surprise to me given how he has played this year. It just shits me that the usual suspects (Dangerfield, Cripps, Pendlebury, Martin, Ablett) will all likely make it and the selectors bias continues to shine through. I would argue that Zorko had just as good a year as any of those guys and whilst he may not have been as dominant as last year, he played this year with a new found maturity which should be recognised. Hell, Pendlebury doesn't stand out like he used to for years but continues to be selected.

 

[Dylan12]

Tim Kelly's obviously in too.

 

[PattyKwasagun]

That photo would suggest it's just the three of them in the final 22.

3 out of 5 ain't bad, although was hoping for 4.

AA Team so far confirmed via various Media outlets

BRIS: Neale, Andrews, Cameron
WCE: Hurn, Yeo, McGovern
CARL: Cripps
RICH: Grimes, Houli
GEEL: Danger, Hawkins, Kelly, Stewart
WB: McCrae, Bont
FREM: Walters, Ffye
GWS: J. Cameron
MELB: Gawn
COLL: Pendles, Grundy

That's 21 - missing just 1

 

[haystark]

Unhappy about Zorks and Clugga being left out but what an amazing achievement for these three and the club.

Having one from the club in the team is awesome, but THREE? Incredible.

All first-timers too!

Yeah. That certainly took the fun out of tonight.

Started watching on fox. Saw King n McLure were hosts. Decided to follow it on the net. So,any updates will be appreciated.

Pretty sure I spotted Darling sitting with the Eagles crew.

 

[Daniels Riches]

Hugh deserved a spot on the wing

Hugh will make it next year once the hype starts to build.

Won't leave the AA team after that for 10 years. Will be a top 3 player in the comp for most of his career. Literally love the MAN.

 

[Elixuh]

I’m surprised Grimes didn’t hold onto Charlie and prevent him from walking out onto the stage.

 

[haystark]

Gerard just had Lachie and Nat Fyfe on the couch having a chat. Gerard asked Nat if he’ll have an eye on Lachie during the finals.. Nat responded that he’ll be wearing his Brisbane Lions jumper and that he’s so impressed with what the club has done this season and how well Zorks has led them.
