Jack and Lids in All-Australian 40-man squad

[Ramps]

i agree with daniel.

[TigerLand]

Do you have the spine to back up your comments disagreeing with my AA team?

Or will you just continue to draw pictures of smiley faces?

Only AA team you could pick is from a Alcohol Anonymous meeting & even that be hard for a professional draft person like you  

                               V
                               V
                               V
                               V

You just continue to waste everyone's time.

If your going to post stick to the topic..

Harry O is one of the worst marks i have seen, if he gets in over Lids i'll stuffing spew up
Lids has smashed him in r50s, i50s, marks, DE%, kicks, handballs, Henrietta is just an inferior player in every aspect of his game
Overrated because he's a massive black dude with a huge afro and he stands out like dogs balls, good player not great or AA

*Standing Applause* Well said!

His kicking is ordinary as well.

cheers Popey, good side by the way, of course i may be biased because it's the only one posted in the thread + it contains lids, jack and no harry-oh-no

Totally agree with the sentiment in this thread. Lids should be AA HB this season no doubt about it, hes been better than Enright and Malceski. Hodge and Goddard played predominantly midfield, at least one of them will line up there so there is room there.
It's been O'briens best season to date no question, but its an absolute joke he's even in the squad of 40 and even sadder that hype and buzz of playing in the top team will get him over the line. He averages 15 touches a game for goodness sakes, yes he breaks lines but he just doesn't get it enough and his defensive qualities are good/very good but not elite like a dale morris type if you are going to rate him on that. Plus he's had 6-7 VERY quiet games.

Good point, how is Dale Morris not in the 40 man squad and O'Brian is?

Barry Hall

JR - 256 disposals (219k 37h), 123 marks, 78 goals, 39 behinds, 9 hitouts, 68 tackles, high score 10, 5+ in a match 6, no goals 1.
BH - 241 disposals (170k 71 h), 129 marks, 73 goals, 31 behinds, 12 hitouts, 25 tackles, high score 7, 5+ in a match 7, no goals 2.

Stats at the end of round 22.

Jack just seems to shade Hall in most areas but the telling one to me is tackles - Jack is worth much more to his team with his forward defensive pressure and that is a critical area in modern day football.  Will be a travesty if Jack doesn't get it.

And Jack is currently leading that poll 38 votes to 2.

Jack is thrashing Bazza in the poll too! 60 to 4, early days yet but i hope the selectors think the same way!

Jack Riewoldt the ace in the pack

Richmond best-and-fairest: tick.
All-Australian: surely.

What a standout season for the 21-year-old, breaking out of the shadow of his famous cousin and becoming a superstar in his own right. A total of 78 goals in a team that finished 15th points to an exciting future.

Good side that one, couldn't complain about most of those picks. Perhaps wouldn't have Boyd on the wing actually.

Especially like that they've left out Maxwell and O'Brien which should be the case, though the ferals be spewing if that is the case

Some good aspects about that one, but some shockers too
Brady Rawlings on HBF? Come on, Lids should get a go there over him, I know he's trying to include a tagger, but put him on the bench
Harry O'Brien, ordinary player in a Top team, doesn't get enough of it and an ordinary kick
Judd does not deserve a starting 18 spot this year, bench only
Goodes shouldn't get a spot this year either and I haven't seen him included in anyone's side so far
