Did I miss something. Rob Murphy was not in All Australia form this year.

Safe to say that is an effing joke. ROBERT MURPHY!

So is Boyd's selection.
Both shouldn't of been in the team.

It wouldn't matter if we were minor premiers, there is a lot of Richmond haters out there, just watch any match and the commentary is usually regaling the opposition whether we are winning or not, This is something younger fans might not realise and some of the older ones have forgotten, we have got as many haters as Collingwood.
Lots of people name their swords......

for me there were 2 pathetic mistakes in Murphy and Dal Santo. Lids and Scott Thompson shouldve been their replacements

More than happy with other selections. Cant complain about players like Davis making it. His had a good year

Jack Riewoldt didn't hide his feelings on twitter tonight about Lids being overlooked for AA ...

"Brett Deledio absolutely robbed, averaged over 26 touches from halfback, what more can he do??? #robbed"

What a joke of a selection, Riewoldt comes equal second in the Coleman and doesn't even make it into the squad.  :banghead

what an effin joke,

Lids, Scotland, thompson and McPharlin robbed - all were better than Glass, Scarlett, Murphy, Dal Santo, Davis and even Enright who only got into gear the last 6-8 weeks prior to that he was solid nothing more. So much bias, it really poos me that a player like Deledio SHOULD be a 2 time AA at 24 and on track to be a star, instead he doesnt even have one, makes a big difference in how he is perceived. Its just wrong, he's served his apprenticeship, wtf has bob murphy done? Davis? he got in bc of the feel good story - dumped from GF one year AA the next - he missed 2-3 games FFS dont they count when in direct comparison to someone like Lids and Scotland who average about 26 pssies a game????

get stuffed

cbf doing the stats thing but Rance statistically better than Scarlett this year. And no Rance is not AA calibre yet.

The footy public aren't happy with the All-Australian side chosen either. A fair few mentions about how Lids should be in the side on a HBF instead of Murphy.

Luke Darcy who I am assuming is a selector said last night (One Week at A Time) that Petrie has been selected as the 2nd/ruckman forward  :o
