Toast Wilkie & Sinclair named All-Australian, Marshall makes squad of 44

[gringo2011]

Agree, in 20 years of drafts we haven't managed an All Australian selection from players taken inside the top 50 picks.

Would be hard to find a club with a worse record than that.

They had a list of AAs, rising stars, 200 game players, brownlow votes, player of the year and coaches votes in the paper a few years back. We were right down the bottom. Probably a bit better these days at least. Toce has been a game changer.

 

[gringo2011]

All the punditry teams I've read today have Sinclair in, but no Wilkie or Marshall.

Probably fair. Sinclair is our absolute best player and would be the best rebounding back in the AFL this year or close enough to it.

Wilkie is a god but he's up against bigger names for the key defensive posts. Darcy Moore is insane and probably one of the best defenders in the last decade. Sicily has had a great year, Stewart was back to his best, Weitering was huge and Harris Andrews had a great year. He wouldn't look out of place in the final AA side but I can see them leaving him out for others.

Marshall probably unlucky that English has been so high profile especially early on when he got on the radar before Marshall started to take control of matches.

So the trajectory of our rookie picks means Jack Perris is in for a breakout year in 2024.

Laughable if Wilks doesn't get in the final side

I think there are a couple he is competing with but if he loses out to Tom Stewart, that will be a travesty.

The field general and pillar in the best defence in the league should make Wilkie an easy selection.

Why the clown emoji? Who is the player than we've drafted in the first 50 picks in the past 20 years who made the AA team?

Jack Steven and Seb Ross say hello

 

[The Punter]

Jack Steven and Seb Ross say hello

Both have made squad but not team.

 

[saintbatty]

Same same

 

[BucketsandBanger]

Really hope Wilkie gets the nod tonight. Would be just deserves for a remarkably consistent 24 months. He is absolutely elite in many of the key areas for a defender. Bracing myself for the disappointment as the dumb AFL campaigners be incredibly lazy and go for Stewart again but one can hope.

 

[George]

Forgot it was even on tonight

 

[Diehard Saint]

Mitch and Mattaes - what well spoken young men.
Future club leaders right there.

 

[hayes]

Sinclair obviously a lock but if Wilkie doesn’t make it I’ll spew up.

He is in attendance!

 

[hayes]

He is in attendance!

I’m assuming that’s because he’s in the squad?

 

[DougalHoward]

Awful panel

 

[gringo2011]

He is in attendance!

They look like they had a few cones before they came in.

 

[BrutThough]

I’m assuming that’s because he’s in the squad?

Only the final team gets invited.

 

[George]

What's the team so far? This isn't going to drag on until 4am again is it
