He'll get it next year, doesn't really bother me.

Thompson thought he was stiff, though.

Then again, Bomber wanted 4 Cats players in the team - Harley, Scarlett, Ling & Ablett.
 
Matera didn't even make it. Unless you are a name midifelder, an unaccountable defender or power forward you have to have a ********ing brilliant year to even be considered.

The most outrageous thing about the side was selecting 4 key forwards and not picking Lloyd.

Ablett not making the team didn’t really surprise me, however I expected that Cameron Ling would be an inclusion.

Ablett shouldn't have been in the side, but I am absolutely filthy that Kirk got the nod ahead of Ling.

Kirk's had a good year as well, would rather have liked to have seen Ling get the nod ahead of Chad Fletcher.

Fletcher deserved it.

Ling and Kirk was probably a toss of the coin, methinks that Kirk got in on last year's performance (don't ask why).

Ablett shouldn't have been picked - as someone else said, Phil Matera didn't even get it. :confused:

Fletcher and Ling's numbers were remarkably similar. I think Fletcher won a little bit more of the ball, whilst Ling took a HEAP more marks (finished top 6 in the league for marks) and kicked twice as many goals.

Fletcher had a great year, but if his year was good enough to get him in, then Ling should definitely have been there.

Fletcher had a fantastic year, so don't get me wrong there, but as Phat mentioned, if he can get in then surely Ling was deserved of a spot as well. Just one of those ones that leaves you pondering I guess.

May get my head bitten off here, but I reckon disposal would be why Fletcher got in ahead of Ling.

Which begs the question - Kirk???

:confused:

I can't see how you can give a bloke AA who can't use both feet..



Ling > Kirk.

Kirk was awsome this year.

Fletch had a good year, but i didn't expect him to get in the AA. Not because he didn't deserve it but because i didn't think his profile would have been high enough to get noticed. I personally thought that Ling should have been in the team and was stiff to miss out, but then again i thought Matera was a shoe in for the FP - so that just shows how good i am at picking the AA team.

On Ablett, he had a pretty good year but i didn't think he was AA. He'll have plenty of them by the end of his career though, he's a real gun.
 
Abblett was still a bench player last year

he has come a long way, but he is so young and got so much time ahead of him, no big deal

he will be in the team soon enough
 




he got in the coaches team of the year though
