All Australian thread 2015

[Donakebab]

You put your team in and I'll make an argument about one player that shouldn't be in, anyone can do that.

Pest.

The whole point of this thread is discussion of the team. Just like previous years, if you post a team expect people to pick at it.


Not picking anyone who hasn't played all three games.

FB: T.McDonald - C.Hooker - L.Spurr
HB: L.Hodge - M.Hurley - B.Smith
C: J.Lewis - J.Kennedy - D.Hannebery
HF: D.Shiel - L.Franklin - S.Hill
FF: L.Breust - T.Walker - L.Thomas
R: T.Goldstein - N.Fyfe - R.Sloane
INT: A.Sandilands - K.Jack - J.Selwood - L.Neale

Dane Swan

 

[Hawkas1988]

Only locks right now would be Hurley and Fyfe.

There are no locks haha

However I reckon Lewis has to be as well if there was.

Also Hooker and Rance have been outstanding. Hodge also has had 3 great games.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Would Jeremy McGovern get a look in over the first 4 rounds? I think he'd make the 40 man squad at least.

Which of Hooker, Hurley, Rance, Talia or Johnson does he displace?

I was asking because I haven't seen all the games of the others so far this year! Jeremy's contested and intercept marking would have to be up there with the best this year I'd have thought. If I knew how to find such stats I would.

Two certainties after round 4 - Dylan Shiel and Tom McDonald

I love seeing fresh faces in the AA team

Jeremy would be in direct competition to Johnson and Hooker then, and would be slightly behind them IMO.

I like Shiel, standing out in the GWS squad

 

[lmach]

McGovern would definitely be in the 40-man squad if it was announced today. He's been outstanding.

 

[Ian Dunross]

Interested to see if Selwood get in the team if Geelong finish 10th or so.

Easier to get in when your team wins. Shiel, Boak, Neale potential challengers maybe?

Still probably will be in the best 5 performed mids so likely a moot point.

Added Goldy to the fresh face list. Huge again today.

You don't think Baguley will make it? I reckon he will.

 

[tek87]

sandilands undefeated after about a year of rucking against all. first picked. Mundy, Hill and Fyfe the other chances

Fyfe a chance? Are you high? Surely the first name on the sheet at this stage.

 

[scalesofjustice]

I thought he was AA last year or the year before

Hes a gun

 

[Unique Name]

Jeremy McGovern is holding that shambles of a team together down back. Definitely gets into the 40 man squad if he keeps it up.

 

[The Joker]

Is Luke McPharlin to old for this team? I know he has only played on crabs like Jay Schultz, Tom Hawkins, Josh Kennedy & Lance Franklin but he did ok.

Not too old, just other KPD's have been extremely good. Currently toughest competition there for years.

 

[Donakebab]

You don't think Baguley will make it? I reckon he will.

Been fantastic and definitely in the mix, was just being impartial, from the three Essendon defenders in the mix he's slightly behind the other two.

 

[robertg22]

Pendles has been our best player so probably should be in the side.. at least in the conversation anyway

 

[PepeSilvia]

Jasper Pittard.

 

[John Bonney]

David Armitage

 

[El_Scorcho]

Jasper Pittard.

Yep, Pittard would be our best chance at the moment. Would almost certainly be leading our B&F and hasn't put a foot wrong this preseason.

Boak looks to have blown off the cobwebs in the last quarter of the Roos game and the Hawks game, so he'll be around the mark as usual

Carlile absolutely destroyed Roughead on Saturday night.

Other than that, too early to tell.
