Missed 2 games and got absolutely belted by Lynch in another. Was in great form before that though.

Two brothers making their first AA from opposite sides of the country, there's a romance to this that selectors simply cannot ignore IMO.
Imagine if Fremantle v Demons grand final, two first-time AA brothers lining up against eachother?
It's poetry.

Not even close.
He's averaging 26th in the competition for disposals, 27 in contested possessions, 39 for clearances, 12 in inside 50s, and 23 for score involvements.
By comparison, Oliver is averaging third, one, one, six, and seven for the same stats.
It's not all about stats, but they are very important. Not only isn't Mills a top 3 mid in the competition this year based on those numbers he's nowhere near the team.

Mills might and (imo) should make the squad but won't make the team

Docherty seems like a good player, might win the rising star. Must have been drafted recently haven’t seen him before.

Angus Brayshaw second in the comp for marks, would love to know how many of those have been intercepts

More tackles than 16 Ess players combined.
Take out Waterman, because the poor bloke only spent 24% time on ground and still managed a couple (would easily have had 5-6 if he'd played more minutes).

Nothing wrong with a bit of bias, especially when you admit it, but the accompanying argument just doesn't stack up.
Whilst Buddy might get some double teams, if Curnow and McKay are playing together, that stretches defences and provides opportunities for others just as much as Buddy's double teams do.

Really poor form
Sam Docherty close to making inspirational AFL return following cancer battle
Carlton says Docherty is "still a chance" to play in round one, with the former Blues co-captain making significant progress after undergoing chemotherapy last year to treat testicular cancer for the second time.

Was edwards who copped a lot of lynch, but yes, that is the issue with eagles being so bad, there are some games where he’s on a hiding to nothing as the oppositions key forwards get plenty of opportunities with excellent service. Not much even the best defenders can do in those cases.
Based on what? He’s never played a final.
Before 2017 Martin was averaging 23 touches, only 7 contested possessions, 0.3 goals, 0.6 goal assists and 1.3 tackles per final across 3 attempts.
What evidence was there before 2017 that HE would be any good at finals football?
Cripps' game is very well suited to finals football. Why do you think midfielders of his ilk tend to dominate once they reach there?
It's not like he's a small forward. Or Jack Darling.

Don’t get the point of this post.
It may be some weird thing re his health, which is poor form.
But if it’s questioning ability, pre health issues he made AA squad of 40 in 2016 and 2017. Only very good players have back to back years where they are considered top 40.

The key back spots are tough. I assume that at this point with Sicily and Stewart almost locked in, there is only two proper tall spots available.
May Weitering Adams Collins and (gone mentally blank on the Freo key back) all have great arguments.
Then McGovern started amazingly and I think Andrews form is really improving back to his best.
He was in the team in 17, not just the squad.
Oooh you're so edgy and cool.
