great to see butters and DBJ reconised!

Impressive that Butters made the list

EDIT: Not sure how Charlie Cameron missed out

 

[Fizzler]

Congrats lads, this is the 5 I’d expected to make the 40 man squad. As for the 22, it’d be hard to squeeze Butters in but the other 4 should make it.

 

[Adz2332]

butters for me is a massive shock!

 

[Macca19]

Butters making the list statistically is kind of outrageous but he's also been the most efficient and impactful player in the league this year. Stoked he got recognised.

Boak & Jonas should be locks. Charlie and DBJ a very good chance of making it too

 

[Schulzenfest]

Boak and Dixon are the only ones likely to make it IMO. DBJ may sneak in but I wouldn't bet on it.

Huge achievement for Butters to come into AA consideration this early in his career, even if it is only the squad.

 

[Forzaport]

Finishing top helps give visibility.

Stoked for Butters. What a year he’s had.

It’s why I don’t value stats like some. Glad he got recognised. I think this board is keenly awaiting to see what Zak Butters can do this finals series.

[Powerade 08]

Surprised they made the right picks, thats probably the top 5 in our BnF. Now to put 3 or more in the team.

 

[DaTBird187]

Well done to all.

 

[finbarr]

Ollie probably unlucky.

Have I overrated SPP and Wines? My top 5 in the votes is currently Boak, SPP, Dixon, Wines, Byrne-Jones.

 

[spookism]

So in order of likelihood of getting in

Boak
Dixon
Jonas
DBJ
Butters

Ollie probably unlucky.

An absolute lock for the 2nd half of the season All Australian.

I can see Wines overtaking Butters in the 2nd half of the year, but SPP definitely wont be top 5.

 

[Chrizzt]

Great recognition for Butters, no chance to make the team though.

Boak a lock, Dixon very close to a lock finishing with the most contested marks and 2nd most goals.

Jonas had a great season, but Grimes, Moore and Andrews likely will get the nod ahead of him.

DBJ an outside chance, but could sneak in on the bench if only Boak and Dixon get in and selectors feel minor premier should have more players.

 

[Marmozet]

All-Australian Squad Members:

Port Adelaide: 5
Adelaide: 0

Mind the Gap..

 

[Marmozet]

Boak is a lock. Jonas is the captain of the team that's been on top of the ladder all year long and Dixon came second in the Coleman.

DBJ probably just misses out but this is still amazing recognition for him, Butters even more so. Butters might not get in this year but this recognition in just his second year will go a long way in the future.

 

[Dylan8]

Butters

 

[Powerade 08]

Butters for me is fully deserving of a spot in the team, but won't get it this year. Some of the names thrown around for that 5th/6th AA forward spot on the main board include Dan Butler and Mitch Wallis

If you'd rather have those guys running around for us next week then good luck to you.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Social media was quick to jump on the players they deemed seriously unlucky to miss out on a place in the squad with none gaining more traction than Melbourne’s Steven May.

“Just staggered May is not in the best 40. I’d have him in the team not the 40,” The Age’s Michael Gleeson wrote.

His name along with North’s Todd Goldstein and GWS’ Lachie Whitfield were prominently thrown around among the brutal snubs.

AFL 2020 All-Australian squad revealed

Each and every year the AFL All-Australian squad causes uproar among fan bases with players being left out of the 40-man announcement.

[finbarr]

I reckon DBJ's chances of making the final cut are being a bit neglected here. I reckon he's in our top 2 or 3 chances.
