Nick Maxwell guaranteed AA

obviously you dont watch him play football. this guy breaks packs, outmarks nearly everybody, thats what true defenders are meant to do. not like scarlett who receives a cheap handball out of defense all the time.

you being a brisbane supporter wouldn't understand since you dont watch a real team. ;)

I'm sure they watched both Brisbane and Collingwood in the GFs in 2002 and 2003 ;)

nick maxwell is dead certain to make the AA team.
he has dominated all of his opponents all season and helped the defense to get back there and clear the ball out.

whoever thought at the start of the season that maxwell will choke as being collingwood's new captain, think again.

being a leader of such a young side, he has been sensational and has improved heaps of his skills.

he deserves that 'C' more than the likes of harley (lol), mitchell, harvey etc..

AA HBF: maxwell.
now lets see all those collingwood haters out there disagree :rolleyes:
Great early call, we all knew Maxwell deserved AA, i just wasn't sure whether the selectors would give it to him.
 
You couldn't just get anyone to play his role. It requires:

1) Courage
2) Ability to read the play and know when to zone off your opponent
3) Good footskills
4) Height
5) A good contested mark and spoiling ability

Hmm let's do a comparison with Fletcher (who was also in the AA squad) and Maxwell.

Note I don't think Dustin deserevd an AA gig.

1) Could say line ball
2) Fletch wins hands down
3) See point 2
4) See point 2
5) See point 2

Well if they were the criteria the AA selectors surley stuffed that one up.

The only thing that is stuffed up is the eye that you didn't have open when you wrote that, you biased clown.

Not sure he deserved it - but if Joel Bowden can make AA on a back flank by playing loose and not having an opponent - then at least Maxwell's pick shows consistency.

And at least Maxwell actually put his body on the line occasionally.

As i mentioned in another post - it's a lot easier to look good when you don't have an opponent.

Bowden, H Shaw (of yesteryear), Hodge, Maxwell, Harley, Johnstone etc etc all have looked like worldbeaters when they don't have an opponent.
 
For a career or for 2009?

Obvioulsy 2009 as there is no contest for career.

The one hting I will admit is Fletch missed a few games during the middle of the year.

And I will repeat - No I don't think fletch should have got an AA gig, but considering the guys who did, he could consider himself stiff because the bar was lowered.

then if you look at output - i'd take Maxwell for this year
 
Hes been bloody named as an AA HBFer!! Whos opinion is more important and respected? Yours, a guy on some net forum? Or the AA selection committee? Geez, get a clue!

Nick Maxwell is now an All-Australian, suck it up.

Well... to be honest... it's about par.

Swan in the forward line, no Le Cras, Judd in the team at all... no second ruckman...
