Opinion Commentary & Media VII

AA is a ****ing joke anyway. Like most afl awards.
But when your team is shit for so long just a glimmer of something nice sustains you…

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Two shit Kanes.

But what qualifies Laura Kane to pick the best players of the year?

DEI.

 

[RossHenshaw]

Have a look at who’s in the AA Team.
All teams majorly kissed on dick every week are the most represented …
GGF !

 

[muttley45]

Both our boys stiff, but not really an unexpected result, this is similar to Jas Garner never winning the Best and Fairest, despite being absolutely deserving of it too, small club tax.

 

[Midas]

This is a blessing for us.

Just keep those elevated levels of desperation for real recognition - ie winning games of footy and being leaders - for X and Sheez.

Love it, and really hope this is just another line in the sand moment for the Lads.

Win games and you win so much more.

Time to put up and let these two blokes lead the place.

 

[Possession]

It's. An. Individual. Award.

It isn't!

It’s always been a joke. Usually last has been a that are out of touch picking their favourites.

 

[tricknologist]

Not sure why anyone expected any different. Remember when they released the mid-season selection video and Dillon could barely hide his smirk when they mentioned us?

 

[Makeshift Park]

I dunno guys, maybe don't invest your energies in their dumb little nepo baby exercise? An ill-fitting private school prefect blazer wouldn't really suit X's aesthetic anyhow.

When we start winning games, we’ll have blokes waltzing into the AA team

How did Waterman make it on the back of West Coasts season if that’s the logic?

****ing Jackovich is the most likely answer.

 

[Psi-Roos]

Even in the past when North were amazing they got F all AA selections. So I suppose it isnt unexpected.

 

[domiroo]

Robbed 3 times in one night .

 

[gerry101101]

Could care less. Meaningless media-indulging award. Silverware is all that matters.

 

[Marstermind]

The AA squad needs to reflect the modern game. Ain’t no team has 3 mids on the interchange lol

Ain't no team with four blokes sitting on the interchange bench either. At last count, every single team picked this season consisted of 23 players.

Its normally how it works

 

[Ashley B]

Wonder what the coaches AA would look like. The AFL ostracise us from everything, everyone knows . The coaches are a better gauge of things .

 

[Rooniversity]

Lol, neither X or Sheezel get mentioned in this AFL poll. (Late edit, they were, but I didn't see them right at the bottom behind a privacy notification which i didn't click out of - my bad)

 

[Roosurgence]

Let’s hope X uses it as motivation.

have a difficult game against X near year, as he should be setting himself to dominate him.

He had Gawns measure this year when they played, so now it’s time to totally crush him.

It’s more disappointment that we have players that are having to meet different criteria to be recognised.

Max Holmes should have been in too. The AFL are full of yes men and women, typical of much of the corporate world.

 

[toepoker]

Let’s save the outrage for our chronically woeful football team
There’ll be plenty of time for outrage over pointless PR exercises when/if we return to a vague level of competence

Absolutely. I don't get what people are upset about.

X & sheez were close. If we get somewhere within laughing distance of the finals they will be in.

 

[Rooniversity]

I'm annoyed that two of our outstanding and consistent players had brilliant years and couldn't even get a look in. I know the award itself is pretty lame. It just sucks that we had two standouts who missed out. Which means the award itself is even lamer.
