Well done to the boys at Syndal. Any win is a good win but when you kick 10 goals in the last quarter it makes all the more enjoyable.
Big game this week between Kew and Mount Lilydale as will decide the make up of the 5.

Pretty enjoyable game at Mt. Lilydale on the weekend. NB were missing 7 players from the previous weeks team so expectations probably weren't that high going in - but a very strong effort against a pretty good outfit in the Mountain Men.
Will need to play some good team footy again this week against Syndal who would be 'up and about'.

'Cowboy' from AP must be included in the Top 10.
Sneako
Senior List
I'd like to know if he has actually been down to see any of the above players play a game

I would drop Bell (k), Rhodes (ml), Piestch (wb), Viola (ep), Penny (bhn)and Nuske (rc)
I would add D.Viola (ep), O'Connell (k), Levi (syndal), Dallas (ap), Hansen (ap) and Monagle (wb)
Levi has only played 9 games and O'Connell 7. Interesting to see whether you could include them with fewer games than the rest of them.
i agree with crazy - congratulations on syndal tally ho on the win from saturday... the ecstasy at the final siren wouldve been unreal!!
you couldnt ask for a better finish - 2 teams finals bound with 1 team either double chancing or in elimination zone... awesome!!

totally gnarly words from one radical dude
Is he the tall timber formerly of Uni Black's fame?
C'mon! Still no new D4 team of the year(entire side) nominations. Sneako if you are such an expert on all things D4, why not contribute your thoughts? Crazybear, RM(yours was too early for consideration), Undertaker,Waz, Spy,Drongo, tunnellball, Abba,Ozza, Stewie, YellowBlue et all lets see your latest thoughts. Dont forget coach of the year either.
I cannot comment on mine as it remains secret til published, and re-submitting my top ten would give too many clues. I will say however that at least half of those ten would retain their places in an end of season re-take.

Very tough job, I based it on who has played well against us this year. Apologies to Ruck Machine but when you played against us you did a great job but we didn't have any key forwards playing. Brown killed us when we played them in Round 14.
Obviously I tried to pick players relatively close to the positions they play in their team.
Tough job!!

not a bad second side and several with strong claims to the first team

Just remember a Team of the Year should be based on a season's work, or at least it always has been in the past years.
I noticed earlier players who had played less than 1/2 the season were being put forward. They may be gun players but the amount of consistency for your team over the year should be paramount.
As to playing onballers on wings and flanks; I am against this. The best player in thier chosen position is the best way to be fair to all.
D. Penny played most of the year as an on baller who went forward for a rest. Probably kicked as many goals when on ball as up forward. How you classify that I don't know. All I know is it has been a super effort on his part to be tagged and double teamed every week yet still play every game this year on a knee that needed surgery back in March.
