Man this is a tough job.

 

[tribey]

Good to see we've all got Scott Burns in the 22...

He's been a revelation this season.

 

[CrowBoi]

Scott Burns has been a revelation since he left SA for Collingwood in 94....

Good on ya for including Coughlan in your AA team.

He's come in leaps and bounds this year and you guys are very lucky to have him- has been consistent all year.

I refuse to do my AA team, as I don't see enough of teams like west coast and freo to evaluate their players abilities. I'd probably change my team every five minutes if I put one up!!

Has he ever. He has been superb. A very underrated footballer.

Well i guess variety is the spice of life!!
I guess i have a few surprising selections there but i just tried to get a good mix in the end.
At the end of the day i think that my backline is pretty attacking which is probably not a good thing, probably needs one more close checking defender in there.
I put embley on the wing because when i have seen him play there this year, i dont think i have seen him beaten!

Interested in other peoples thoughts!

Pretty good team but I am surprised that you couldn't find a spot for Phil Matera. The bloke has kicked 60+ goals.

My reasoning for that is that while he has had a great year i thought that i had to have either him or browny but not both, in the end i think browny has kicked 50 odd goals and is a more creative player hence creating more goals for players around him.
Sorry phil

Roo made tha AA side as an emergency. Unreal!

That's a disgrace.

I didn't think they had emergencies.

A few Adelaide players in there Dave .

As I'm not an Adelaide supporter I won't post mine, but a big thank you to those who included Clint Bizzell in their side!

Yeah Andrew Crowell and James Begley were a bit stiff to miss.

Do you mean emergency - or interchange??

I haven't seen the side but i know that the Crows have 1 player in it and Port 2.

Ours would be Riccuito, and Port's would be Tredrea and ??

Maybe Wanganeen??

 

[DaveW]

Yeah Ricciuto, Tredrea and Wanganeen were all certainties.

No SA players get in on line-ball calls.

They said o 5AA that 1 Crow and 2 Port players made the team but were not allowed to say who. They were a bit surprised that a couple of Brisbane boys made it. It would appear that thread on the main board is a geninely leaked team as they had Lappin and Leppitsch in it. Both IMHO do not deserve it this year.

 

[macca23]

B: Gavin Wanganeen (Port), Matthew Scarlett (Gee), Joel Smith(Haw)
HB: Rohan Smith (WB), Justin Leppitsch (Bris), Nigel Lappin (Bris)
C: Lenny Hayes (StK), Michael Voss (Bris), Paul Williams (Syd)
HF: Matthew Pavlich (Fre), Warren Tredrea (Port), Mark Ricciuto (Adel)
F: Phillip Matera (WCE), Matthew Lloyd (Ess), Chris Tarrant (Coll)
FOLL: Adam Goodes (Syd), Nathan Buckley (Coll), Peter Bell (Fre)
INT: James Hird (Ess), Michael Gardiner (WCE), Paul Haselby (Fre), Robert Harvey (StK)

The above was the leaked AA side

So far they have announced the B, HB and C lines and they are all exactly correct, so you can take it for granted this is the AA side.

A couple of doubtful selections. Joel Smith in the back pocket and Paul Williams on a wing.

Didn't know that Lappin played HB flank either.

Leppitsch is also a bit lucky after missing games with injury.

 

[Stiffy_18]

Some shockers there. Justin Leppitsch, Nigel Lappin, Paul Williams and Joel Smith have not earned it this year IMHO.

How Scott Burns, Tyson Edwards and Shane Crawford haven't made it is beyond me

 

[DaveW]

Lenny Hayes is so overrated.

By a milli-second Stiffy!

I notice that we had exactly the same criticisms of the side too.

They have just announced the HF line and again, exactly as per the leaked side - surprise surprise!!
