Who cares? This is right up there with the Brownlow tbh.

Total agreement ctb its a pissing contest and totally irrelevant to the real world.

 

[Adz]

Natanui has been the most dominant ruckman all year - I don't get your point?

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

I'd Prefer all 3 are 2012 premiership players than to win the next 5 AA

True as you just have to see who is on the Commite

 

[Bay Pie]

I can't think of any other player that would be worthy from our list.

Beams and Swanny will make it but I think Pendles missed too many games.

 

[Kirby]

I can't think who else has been good enougfh or consistent enough for us all year to make it.

The only arguably stiff player imho is Maxwell as he has been very good all year.

 

[larrikan]

Which Collingwood player has missed out do you think? Unlike the past two years, most of our players have had inconsistent or had injury riddled years. Sidey maybe until his form dropped off. I'm struggling to come up with any.

BUT What is a huge joke is that 8 players come from Richmond and St Kilda!!!!!!!!!and Betts?? the scum deserve nobody imho....lmao... So on that basis and selection criteria it is hugely disrespectful.

 

[mattys123]

Heath Shaw is a little stiff to miss out, and Sidey would have been in there if not for a recent drop in form, but really, who gives a rats arse.

 

[GibboPAL]

Pendlebury was lucky to make the cut, for mine. The rest of the side is fair enough for mine, I've got no issues with it.

Those four Tigers boys had great years, so not sure why their selection is indicative of disrespect?

 

[Shade]

What are you so high and mighty about? there is absolutely nothing wrong with who they picked from Collingwood

 

[GibboPAL]

I also don't understand how you can bag the team out constantly, saying they're downhill skiers who are no chance to win the flag, and yet you're so hurt that a committee hasn't selected more than three of our players to be in the league's best 22?

You're a piece of work.

 

[dansa]

Seems fair to me. Lucky to have Pendlebury in the squad, he wont make the 22.

 

[SuperSub17]

In 2002 we had no players in the 22 and in 2007 we had no players in the 40...

Both pretty good years for us iirc

What Lost in the GF in 2002 in Close Game(Screwed) and Lost by a Kick in the 07 Prelim

 

[Bay Pie]

What's really funny is many experts have been saying our superstars have been getting us through games and our depth is crap. You'd think we'd have more of those superstars in the squad then.

In both years we had terrible form going into the finals series, and then played brilliantly only to come within inches of a flag. Tons of AA players does not equal premierships. In 2007 Geelong had 9 and we had none, and they only just beat us in the prelim.

 

[Frankie23]

One, those bagging the AA award are a joke, many great players judge winning an AA position as a career highlight.

Secondly, can't think of any other players that deserve a spot. Beams is a surely a certainty, whilst Swanny should get a gig as well. Don't think Pendles has been up to AA standard this year

 

[Beary17]

Isnt there better things to worry about in the world? Especially as the selectors got it right....

 

[SuperSub17]

The one that surprises me is Rioli, he has been brilliant at times, but very inconsistent.

The selection is no better than the prejudices of the panel.

Therefore its a pissing contest.

 

[Stifler's mom]

Why do you keep starting terrible threads?

 

[Frankie23]

Therefore its a pissing contest.

Who are the selectors out of interest? Considering there are no great surprises and every player in the 40 has had a very good year I don't see what the issue is...

 

[jathanas]

I think Beams is the only sure thing for AA.

Swan & Pendles don't have the runs on the board in 2012 TBH. No disrespect from the panel at all.
