Jacobs is a good tap ruckman but doesn't do near enough to be All Australian... Big Ivan woul dbe in front of him IMO, but then again he doesn't play for the crows anymore.

Incorrect troll. Your trolling was clear regarding who Ivan/Sam plays for.

The stats support Ivan no doubt, while they also suggest you opinion re Sauce's work around the ground is incorrect :oops: 2 possessions less that Ivan and more than the AA ruckman :roll:

cheers

I would propose that Nic Nat's disposals would be a bit more damaging than Jacobs and Maric for that matter, considering he plays around the ground more like a ruck rover than a ruckman dishing of handballs.
But hey, thats my opinion and my points about who they play for is valid considering everyone is outraged over Jacobs yet Maric stats are better. So go and troll on that.

Naturally AFC fans want Sauce in, Maric missed a few games late in the year didnt he? Id be happy with Maric or Jacobs in the team.

As for NicNats possessions being more damaging, id question that. Nic often makes the basics look hard and the impossible easy. Sauce is far mor steady, provides a marking outlet of half back and skills are pretty good for a big man. Maric alround game has improved massively as well

Sam'Mitchell the unluckiest,could win the Brownlow and not make the team. Pavlich 2nd unluckiest, played through the mid field at the start of the year.

Its not a matter of rose coloured glasses, the main issue is NicNat taking the place of Sauce or Maric (no AFC supporter or any other supporter for that matter) in the AA side. The rose coloured glasses doesnt stop with the people calling for Sam in the AA side, way you see things (anti AFC) and the way you portray that opion does infact make your posts very much trollish.

Not by much but still better

I reckon NicNat will be a mainstay of future AA teams



IMO NIcNat is over rated, he does flashes of brilliance, then stuffs up the basics and goes missing for large chunks of games. A future star no doubt but to say he has had a better year than sauce OR IVAN MARIC?


Edited.

Just continuing on with these stats and maybe making case for Nic Nat to be in the AA - his HO may be down but he also plays in a team with another ruckman - as opposed to doing it all himself as Maric and Jacobs do. Good example is the crows v WC game Jacobs 16 HO, Nic Nat 19 and Cox 25... Think people are selling Nic Nat a tad short.

Listening to the justification of certain players being selected. I have concluded the judges have searched for random stats to justify their selections. It almost as if certain players have to be selected no matter what.

Darren Glass captain? He never plays on the best forward, he plays in the backline. Jobe Watson dragged his team over the line in a few games. A terrible choice by these hack judges.

Jack Riewoldt won the Coleman but didn't deserve a spot IMO, and I watch him every week.

Naitanui and Rioli shouldn't be there, their best 10 games are amazing but their bad 10 are not AA worthy.



Spot on Pag. :ymapplause: :ymapplause:

I was surprised Gibson wasn't picked in the team, he's had a very good year.
