Toast Jobe Watson- AA selection

[Lord Nicholson]

Doubtful that you would select a first time AA to be Captain.

That would be a strange decision.

Why?

Hell, Ablett got the gig last year in his first year of actual captaincy.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Funny, been crying out for one of our boys to get an AA gig for years. The year we do, coincides with the year I lose all faith in it.

You can be captain of the AA team without being a Club Captain - If you have have previously been AA - Name me a first time AA player in the modern era who has been named Captain ?

Are you suggesting Jobe was not a worthy selection?

 

[yaco55]

How many EFC drafted players have made AA.

Hird
Johnson
Hardwick
Lloyd

Fletcher/Watson F'S, McPhee Trade, Mercuri zone.

How do you draw that conclusion?

We didn't even really draft Lloyd in the typical sense.

Watson went through the draft even if it was F/S.

As for the captaincy thing, I guess I just don't get why you have to be a previous AA to be AA captain. I'm not sure of the reasoning, even if it hasn't happened before.

Whilst I'm happy for Jobe, this award has lost all it's ******* credibility.

Lost it a lonnnnng time ago, baby.

Happy for Jobe, but I couldn't care less.

Meaningless, and highly inaccurate award.

Pendlebury, Franklin? lololololol

 

[Kong]

Oh and, Andrew McLeod was once named AA captain.

'nuff ****ing said.

 

[TheDon35]

Well deserved. Gun.

 

[Essendonia]

Some kind of recognition for a stellar year from an old-school footballer in a modern game that lacks grit and pure will-power football. We all know how good you are. May your peers be charged by your lead and push themselves to support you in the eternal quest to lift the cup aloft in September.
