Most people are putting Mitchell on the back flank. Not sure why, he hasn't played there all year

 

[Farang83150]

But how can there be no Sandi in the teams....its just not possible....she must be there...

Been thinking the same thing. He's no chance of being named there. How do you like Gibson's chances? I've had him in since McGovern got injured but notice most Hawks supports don't, so I'm doubting now.

It's the AA team, doesn't matter.

He is not in for mine, but maybe they owe him one for 2013. I'm thinking rance and hurley are certainties. Im thinking they might go for 4 running backs and just have the 2 key position types

haha, maybe we can chuck Hurley as chf as he has played there before

Starts on the back of the square every now and then. Would spend more time on half back than Gray or Dangerfield do on a forward flank. Probably won't be named there because there are plenty of deserving small/medium defenders this year imo.

Surely Hayne is a chance to make the roster if the AA selectors are going with 4 RB's!

 

[jc12]

Rance and Martin are the only two Richmond players likely to make it for mine. Deledio missing those games hurts. Cotchin role has been done better (not by a lot) by other mids in his position.

Cotchin has been massive for the team with his impact but he hasn't put in as many 4 quarter consistent performances that attract others .

 

[DangerSloane]

Sorry but that is horrid.
How could you have Roughead, Boyd or McVeigh in that side is confusing.

Even Riewoldt is like the 5th ranked key forward in the game this year.

 

[DangerSloane]

Sheppard Rance Shaw
Mitchell Hurley Wood
Gaff Priddis Hannebery
Wingard Riewoldt Stringer
Betts Kennedy Rioli

Goldstein Dangerfield Fyfe

Naitanui Martin Gray Mundy

5 Eagles

Looks fine, but Shepperd is nowhere near the AA side I'm sorry to say.
Other than that, looks like a good side.

And 2014, and 2012.

However I don't think he will make the team this year. 12,13 and 14 were all better.

 

[Jootube]

Wood - Rance - Shaw
Mitchell - Hurley - Boyd
Gaff - Priddis - Hannebery
Gray - Walker - Stringer
Wingard - Kennedy - Betts
Goldy - Fyfe - Dangerfield

NicNat, Mundy, Murphy, Kennedy

That's presuming Hodge is out for the rest of H&A. Otherwise he comes in for Kennedy.

Like: NicNat on the bench
Dislike: Priddis, would swap for Pendles.

Boyd has been one of the best small defenders in the comp this year. That last spot in the back six is between Boyd, Laird and Murphy.

 

[DangerSloane]

Boyd has been one of the best small defenders in the comp this year. That last spot in the back six is between Boyd, Laird and Murphy.

I dont agree. I think both Laird and Murphy have been far more outstanding.

Anyway thats the least of the worries with that side.

Bont? Riewoldt? Roughead? McGovern?
These guys will struggle to make the squad.

Riewoldt will make the squad, IMO he should be in the 22.
From the player ratings side I would say Bennell, Roughead, Bont, McVeigh, McGovern, Burgoyne, Selwood and Sloane are all no chance of the squad.

 

[kade]

And 2014, and 2012.

However I don't think he will make the team this year. 12,13 and 14 were all better.

In 2014, he missed about 10 games with a torn pectoral muscle

 

[Super Hans]

Boyd has been fantastic this year. He basically hold that back 6 together along with Wood. Tackles, marks, defends and gets the ball 30 odd times a game. He is 100% deserving of being in the side. But as I said, that last spot could go to any of Murphy, Boyd or Laird.

He makes the squad...but shouldnt make the side IMO.

but yes, that side is laughable and that was my major point.

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

FB: Laird - Rance - Shaw
HBF: Murphy - Hurley - Wood
C: Gaff - Priddis - Hannebery
HFF: Gray - Cameron - Wingard
FF: Stringer - JJ Kennedy - Betts
R: Goldstein - Fyfe - Dangerfield

I: Mitchell, Mundy, JP Kennedy, Martin

Is probably where I'm at right now.

 

[Guardian Hawk]

Has started at the back of the square as much as the middle itself as Clarko likes to rotate more players through than most and tries to lessen our reliance on the older players to win clearances.

Edit: already mentioned.

 

[MC_9]

You are correct.

Was still in better form in 2014, then this year.

 

[The Joker]

Clearly beat Goldy in the 1st half - Goldy clearly beat him in the 2nd.

Goldy exploded in the last as he does when the other ruck stops running.

Clearly beat him in the second half? 1 possession in the 3rd and 6 in the last!!!

Herald Sun Voting

3 - Harvey
2 - Goldy
1 - Neale

What about the coaches votes?

Goldy is equal 3rd. Should be the lock for AA based on that.

Swallow BOG?? Wow Lyon has lost it.

Goldy get any votes the last time they met?

If you want to be the best you have to beat the best...
