Jack Riewoldt in the AA team has to be one of the worst selections of all time

 

[Roo Beauty]

Gray for in

Gray made it...

Deservedly so

Crap, didn't realise.

Definitely deserving.

 

[cyril4brownlow]

Probably the best All Australian team I've seen. A much more natural looking team with players picked in their actual position. Josh Gibson and Reiwoldt were lucky to scrape in with no real dominant CHF or 3rd tall backman but both still quite deserving. It would be disappointing if Josh slipped in due to missing previous AA's.

I bet the same people complaining the midfield beasts such as Pendles, JK didnt make it are the same people that complain about players being picked out of position. Always some people just want to complain for the sake of it.

 

[tigland]

Good side. Jpk and NN only glaring omissions for mine

 

[mcuzzy]

I'm so torn.

I hate AA, I find it to be a bit of a joke of an award and I have no faith in half the selectors.

But on the other hand, I'm pretty rapt that three tigers got in.

 

[RWnBluey]

I guess putting a good guy facade on means a lot.

Facade?? please elaborate

Again, Deledio fortunate after missing five games but he was robbed a couple of times when playing as a permanent defender.

Deledio has been excellent in the games he's played but I just disagree with picking him ahead of someone like Kennedy who has played every game.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Deledio over JPK is an even bigger joke than Riewoldt in over Walker.

 

[CotchNCo]

Walker averages more disposals and marks, kicks more goals but the ALMIGHTY JACK RIEWOLDT gets picked at CHF.

LOL

You realise that Jack won the Coleman and missed out on the team one year.

 

[Engimal]

Good team.

Ron, you know I like you guys, but you shouldn't get selected after missing five games, unless you have a freakishly dominant, Gaz Jnr, type year.

Rieowldt shouldn't have made the side either.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

You realise that Jack won the Coleman and missed out on the team one year.

What's that got to do with this year

 

[Vic pokiesmon]

How u can leave out Kennedy is mindblowing.Cant remember a more staggering ommission

 

[Tsongkie]

How u can leave out Kennedy is mindblowing.Cant remember a more staggering ommission

Eric McKenzie and Matt Priddis 2014 comes to mind.

 

[Aussie Assault]

Tough listening to Healy talk now when he's been on the selection panel in the past and the shitness of the team in the past.

 

[MaxHunt]

Reckon it's not a bad effort.

 

[TiggerMan22]

Deledio in over JPK and Pendles lol

Yeh im also glad they got it right for once

 

[TiggerMan22]

Jack Riewoldt in the AA team has to be one of the worst selections of all time

Lmao. Maybe if you only look at the goals stat and never watch games

 

[Pykie]

It's weird, they've named two ruckman once in about 6 years and the one ruckman that makes it this year is probably one of the most aerobically athletic of all time, who barely has a rest anyway and they kick up a stink.

Nic Nat isn't anywhere near good eough around the ground to warrant a bench spot as a second ruckman, he isn't good enough forward.

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

No Taylor Walker.

Adelaide poster.

Jack Riewoldt in his place.

offended, yep.

How about just stating how you feel and not carefully hiding your agenda?

 

[Sprout]

Didn't Deledio miss 6 games? Played 17 regular season?

 

[King Elvis]

Do they realise Taylor Walker played a game less than Riewoldt?

 

[Godspeed]

Here for the Jack melts.

 

[Ron The Bear]

Ron, you know I like you guys, but you shouldn't get selected after missing five games, unless you have a freakishly dominant, Gaz Jnr, type year.

Rieowldt shouldn't have made the side either.

I said a while back he wouldn't be in my team and I'm saying he's lucky now. That's all you're going to get.

Phenomenal effort after losing a chunk of the pre-season + early games to Achilles problems.

 

[SA_Hawker]

Stats aren't everything

Tell that to the blokes bagging Cyril
