Havent heard enough praise for this bloke. Was as good as Ablett yesterday, attacked the ball and won the contested pill over and over again. Was a ****ing maniac!
 
played a brillant game on saturday. one of your better players on the day aside from ablett who always seems to have a fantastic game.

i'm certain there must be clones of him running around the field cause he's always in where the ball is. he's well on his way to becoming one of the great players in the game. :D

I haven't watched a whole lot of Geelong games the last few seasons but on Saturday Joel Selwood impressed the hell out of me.

I now understand the hype surrounding the young man, he's one of the few that stood up when heart was required.

He must be your next captain.
 
Followed Ablett as our best on Saturday.

Once again, enhanced his reputation.

We're very lucky to have him. How the hell did he not go number one, dodgy knee or not?

My favourtie Geelong player, just great skills and so tough and strong for a young kid. Almost wish we'd used our pick 6 on him (no offence Mitch Thorpe)
 
The skill and composure off this young man is second to none, almost James Hird like in the way he can stop time.

Other than Judd there has not been such an outstanding player in his first two years of AFL. He is a ready made player with two grand finals already.

The Brownlow is his next one and then captain of the club if it is not given to Ablett.

Selwood is a ready made player and worth every dollar he gets.

Geelong fans what do you think went wrong? Hawthorn were very good, but you guys were pretty poor.
 
****in gun, the test of a true champion is how well they play when others aren't...like the GF. Selwood, Ablett, Scarlett...we knew they were champions before Saturday...they've further reaffirmed that.

Future captain if ever there was one

This is a huge call but he is a combo of Hird & Voss!!
Reads the play like Hird & Hird's composure but has the raw grunt of Voss.

I have a huge man crush of this bloke, he is a massive star on the rise, Geelong's next captain for sure.
 
Amazing effort in a beaten side and deserves to be labeled a champion, even at his young age.

The only thing I'm dirty on is that he seems to have got 95% of the Selwood family "footy ability" genes and poor old Adam and Troy are left fighting over the scraps.

Don't suppose we could interest you in a trade for Troy.....we'll even throw in a few draft picks:)


No......I thought not:(
 
We really do have a little gem in this bloke, what a star.

I think when Harley retires that Ling is the logical and obvious choice to replace him as captain, but jeez it would be good if we could have a Kernahan/Carey type captain from a young age and do it for about 10 years, he'd be absolutely perfect in a year or 2 to take the reigns, he's already directing players and shouting orders at the more senior players.

Well done Joel, your a champion:thumbsu:
 
The man will win a brownlow within two years I reckon. Given his 19 votes this year I don't think that is a huge call!

He just makes you sit up straight and watch every time he goes near the ball. His attack is constant and fierce and it just blows your mind that he has only played about 40 games.

So much for second-year blues.

I had money on him for a win and place this year and only just missed out on a nice payday.

I am so in awe of him as a player, he just constantly wins contested possessions and attacks the man and ball with a maniacal intent.
 
Sorry to head somewhere off the topic here..... As I too am a huge huge fan of this courageous kid.

but i thought this may be of some interest to you cats supporters....
im a one eyed carlton man and today i stumbled across a very interesting/cool new website created by joels brother troy from brisbane.

it seems he has gone in partnership with joel macdonald also from the lions and they have created some sort of a blogging site which takes us supporters behind the scenes of a football club and shows us what footy players are really like when they dont have to feel the pressure of being role models with cameras always in their face.

the reason why i mention this is because there is a 10 minute video of the four selwood boys holidaying in queenstown new zealand over the break and it is one of the funniest things i have seen on the internet for a while. your boy joel is quite a character, but it seems as though his courage isnt quite as big as what it is out on the footy field. from what the video shows..... i think he may a litle timid when it comes to adventure sports! all four of the brothers seem like a great set of mates and the sort people you would love to get to know.

look this site is obviously about the lions but i have found all of their videos to be very entertaining.

the website is http://mac-bunno.tv

after doing a bit more research on this site i found even more episodes of them on youtube ........ http://au.youtube.com/macbunnoTV

see if you like it.... because as i said earlier, even as a die hard blues man, i really enjoyed watching what these guys get up to!

just watch out for scott selwoods impressive party trick!
