I kind of think Mays second half of the year has been a bit ordinary, but I don't know if I will be crucified for that. Two months ago I would have said he was a shoo in but I don't know, Barrass has been so solid lately.

Won't shout you down for that, he certainly has dropped off a bit after the concussion. IMO Taylor is a lock for CHB, and it'll be a line ball between Barrass and May.I kind of think Mays second half of the year has been a bit ordinary, but I don't know if I will be crucified for that.

Close, but needs another KPD (Taylor). Docherty has dropped off quite a bit – if I was picking a Blues HB, it'd be Saad.I am genuinely curious as to how many/if any agree with my AA backline
B: Stewart, Barrass, Docherty
HB: Sinclair, Sicily, Dawson
Can see the point in Stewart missing out due to too many games out*

Anyone know Tom Barrass odds?
Just saw he’s paying $8 for Most West Coast votes on Brownlow night. Usually it’s a midfielder/umpires award, but can’t see many Eagles out-polling TBShort I would assume

Cameron is a great contested mark he just beats people in the turn around and gets opportunities to lead with the 6/6/6 rule.This is plainly untrue.
The difference between the two players you mention and Cameron is that they had a better Contested mark, at least twice as good
In 2010 for example Riewoldt averaged 2.45 Cm per game, and Richo leads the record books on players that have had more than 4 cm per game with 57 games of at least 4 cm per game, Cameron this year average 1.1 contested mark
Both Riewoldt and Richo took many more CM than Cameron
At least double the amount, they were completely different players
Not saying Cameron should not make the team, but he is nothing like Nick and Richo who were KPF who could run, and take contested marks
He isn't a great contested markCameron is a great contested mark he just beats people in the turn around and gets opportunities to lead with the 6/6/6 rule.

Has there been a year where a team that finished second didn't have a player in the AA?Has there been a year where the team that finished top didn't have a midfielder in the AA? No Geelong mid deserves it, but now that I think about it its a little weird.
BAAHAHAHAHHA no, he's underrated asf but Sicily is our best defender, he's probably the best defender in the league full stop, he's a versatile defender who does smalls and talls, great intercept mark, great at reading it and killing it, he's a superb kick and racks it up.he is better than Sicily
Stewart isn't as good defensively, not because he doesn't want to be, because he can't. There's a different level of smarts in defending leads and defending players, Hardwick use to be a forward so he understands the patterns well. Tho i agree, he won't make the side.There’s no chance that Hardwick gets in. The team simply isn’t selected to actually play games. The wingers would have never played a game on a wing this entire year. The selectors simply put the best players in regardless of role. I guess their thoughts would be that if Tom Stewart wanted to play a lockdown role like Hardwick he would be just as good.
It's debatable but I tend to agree with them. I would rather have a better mid on the wing then a pure wingman if I was to actually choose a team. I would also rather have Petracca or Bont as a half forward then a pure half forward. It's not really a position based team rather then just the best overall players.
I still hope Jeka makes it as a CHF, his leading patterns, strong hands, great kicking and acceleration with his footy iq. It suits, he was often having games last year along the lines of 20 touches 10 marks and 3-5 goals in the VFL.Really rate Jeka as a long term prospect been great at box hill for a while and liked the move down back for him
Definitely something worth continuing to experiment with, has the tools to be that no fuss big kpd who can do the grunt work
Over-rated who just boots the ball forward to the opposition.BAAHAHAHAHHA no, he's underrated asf but Sicily is our best defender, he's probably the best defender in the league full stop, he's a versatile defender who does smalls and talls, great intercept mark, great at reading it and killing it, he's a superb kick and racks it up.
Sicily is a lock for the AA. LOCK.
If you value ability to not lose 1-on-1 contests in your key backs, a few popular names shouldn’t be considered. Either because they are worse than AFL average in the contest, or don’t even have that many contests.I am genuinely curious as to how many/if any agree with my AA backline

I’m guessing they’ve payed out on Neale and OliverI wouldn't read too much into the betting odds that are being discussed in this thread. The market is pretty atrocious (see Laird and Angus Brayshaw at $1.15, McCluggage at $1.30, Dawson at $17, Barrass at $15).

Lmao, boots the ball forward straight to the oppo? he's a great kick, anyone who suggests otherwise doesn't understand football.Over-rated who just boots the ball forward to the opposition.
How many tackles did he lay over the weekend? Plays for himself. Makes it more difficult for his teammates.
