LOL at Dusty getting in. Will be a disgrace if he makes the final team.
Rohan killed his season. Played for weeks like he was struggling with the concussion and couldn't move his shoulder too well.

Jeremy Cameron was stuffed ever since the media said he was the best player in the league. Injuries or no injuries after that he absolutely spudded it up for the rest of the season.

lol how the hell did plodder Cripps make the squad.
Champion data used to have a better stat which was like expected kicking efficiency vs actual which took into account the difficulty of the kicks and how often any player would hit them.
i'd admit i haven't watched much of Taranto playing but if he is taking tough kicks under pressure his kicking could actually be better than you'd think.
unfortunately CD want to play these bullshit games where they hide stats to sell them.
It's because you didn't have a unicorn position that needed filling.
Find me someone who thought Cripps would be in the squad.

Of course he will. Complete BS.
Shai Bolton didn't get nominated from his own club and was better.
Now if we could just start nailing our first round draft picks, we might actually go somewhere…

You don't understand the game. As if any team would prefer Miers over Martin in a team

Breaking it down to forwards/mids/backs/rucks:
Defenders: Harris Andrews, Nick Blakey, Nick Daicos, Dan Houston, Darcy Moore, Isaac Quaynor, Mason Redman, Luke Ryan, James Sicily, Jack Sinclair, Tom Stewart, Jacob Weitering, Callum Wilkie
Midfielders: Noah Anderson, Marcus Bontempelli, Zak Butters, Stephen Coniglio, Patrick Cripps, Josh Daicos, Jordan Dawson, Jordan De Goey, Tom Green, Errol Gulden, Tom Liberatore, Zach Merrett, Lachie Neale, Jai Newcombe, Christian Petracca, Connor Rozee, Caleb Serong, Jack Viney
Rucks: Tim English, Luke Jackson, Rowan Marshall
Forwards: Oscar Allen, Luke Breust, Charlie Cameron, Charlie Curnow, Joe Daniher, Toby Greene, Kyle Langford, Nick Larkey, Dustin Martin, Taylor Walker
13 defenders (3x KPD, 5x medium, 5x small)
18 midfielders (16x inside leaning, 2x outside leaning)
3 rucks
10 forwards (5x KPF, 2x medium, 3x small)
Wondering if they're considering either Daicos or Sinclair a mid, as it's unusual to have 13 backs. I think they'll go:
6 def/10 mid/1 ruck/5 fwd
Leaving the second team with:
7 def/8 mid/2 ruck/5 fwd
Defenders: Harris Andrews, Nick Blakey, Nick Daicos, Dan Houston, Darcy Moore, Isaac Quaynor, Mason Redman, Luke Ryan, James Sicily, Jack Sinclair, Tom Stewart, Jacob Weitering, Callum Wilkie

I would have Martin over Miers in my AA team myself, but it's a genuine 50/50, toss of the coin proposition.
Gyran's goal assist numbers this year may be too hard for the selectors to ignore.

I haven't mentioned Miers over Martin you dullard. Just that Martin is undeserving.
Don't bother quoting again. I won't bother reading the inevitable drivel.
the AA selectors?
Fair point haha. Just seems odd. Not sure even the most biased of Blues fans would have had him in. Cerra maybe.

Yeah, nah Bolton won some games off his boot but he was more inconsistent and played more midfield than Dusty who played his role a lot more consistent.

Well Miers didn't make the squad so there's your answer.

Had him in my squad. Was a good reason they came 5th. They’re best mid in a stretch they won games and got a home final. He’s a better pick than Martin at least.

There really was only 3 hawks options this year to potentially make the squad. it's surprising all 3 made it. Newcombe is actually underrated on here but its been a very good year for alot of mids so I wasn't going to be shocked if he missed. I somewhat agree Breust has been good this year but has had other years he has missed where he has been better, I think overall it's been a pretty down year for small forwards so I guess that's helped his case.
I think we had a conversation this year regarding how historically goals has been the most important statistic when it comes to forwards making this team. Seems like we will have more of that this year, which I'm not against but Miers did have a good year.

Stop hating on Martin. If you look at his full stats he's a shoe-in.
