I thought that was a very good list until I saw Sylvia starting ahead of Butler, Murphy, Walker, Birchall, Stanton or Ray.
Sylvia is worse than every single one of those players. To suggest otherwise is ridiculous.

As does Thomas, Stanton and a couple of other players yet Walker is the player that keeps getting singled out for poor disposal.Hard Yakka said:

Yes Sylvia has not done as much as some of those players at this stage of his career. But if you were crating a team to play a match Sylvia would be a starting onballer as he is so good at winning contested posession due to his strength. The team is made up of 21 year olds who do not have the strength to match it with the more mature bodies. Sylvia does and therefore he would start in the middle.
The ridiculous suggestion is suggesting that Sylvia is worse than all those players. Colin is a player of immense talent and next year we will see huge things from him.

Definately wouldnt have Murphy on the ball ahead of Stanton, Stanton has proved alot more, Murphy looks to be the better player in the future, but Stanton has ALOT more runs on the board.
Rucks: Minson
RR: McLean
R: Wells
C: Cooney
Wing: Stanton
Wing: Deledio

I'd have him in, but he's only played what? 2 games, does look good though.micky_11 said:

He's definitely not as talented as Walker who can play tall and small.tara!! said:
Walker's year was as good as Stanton's and he was in contention to play for Australia against Ireland before he had surgery for the groin injury he's carried this year. Stanton can't play halfback as well as Walker and that's where he was selected in this team.
And no one would pick Stanton on a wing or onball ahead of Wells, Deledio, Cooney, Mclean, etc.
Who repelled Essendon's last attack in the drawn game this year with a brilliant spoil in the dying seconds?

You are seriously delerious if you think Marc Murphy's form over 13 games should put him in the All-Australian team followers.
Murphy had 228 disposals in 13 games, which is an awesome effort for a 1st year.
On his average he would have racked up 385 possies for 22 games for 2006.
Stanton's last two years:
2005 - 365 disposals
2006 - 483 disposals
Stanton clearly deserves a spot over Murphy, for mine Murphy would be on the bench.
Robert Harvey? cmon hes only just past the age limit.
Yep and Heath Scotland is a better player than Judd because he gathers more possesions. I'm glad we got that sorted outPykie said:
Stanton isn't in Murphys class in reading the play and use of the ball to damaging effect. It's as simple as that. And its not that I don't rate Stanton, I have him in the middle of my U21 All Australian squad.

Yes, and thus proving my above point. Murphy will be the better player, but stanton has alot more runs on the board at the moment, and should be included over murphy if your considering a AA team.

How does that prove your point?Pykie said:
Yep he has had more disposals. How does that prove he has more runs on the board? It just proves that he has had more disposals and played for an extra year.
