Dane Swan in the squad as a forward. Therefore he will make the bench i would think. ANother thing, im sure Andrew Mackie has made the AA side before (says in the article he has not).

That looks a fair effort CK, would imagine you've got a fair component of those names right ... Off the top of my head I cant think of too many who might challenge for a place, maybe Didak, Gilbert and Corey, but I dont think there would be too many complaints if your team was the actual AA side.

[wycbloods]

Didak i would possibly put in for Porplyzia or Boyd.

I would change Mackie for Gilbert.

The rest i think is a good effort and will get pretty close to the side that is selected.

[CoverKing]

Two people i left out Johnson and Didak was because they missed 5 or 6 games.
Unlike Johnsons 2007 season, i dont think they should be put in the final side!

There performances in the games have not been of a calibre of Johnsons 2007 season IMO.
THey have been magnificant tho.

Cant have didak in for porps unless porps is on the bench as didaks in there as a midfielder.

Mackie i have put in because he has been magnificant in a side that has had a pretty unstable defence for a bit this year and they tend to go on reputations a bit and not reward break out years like Gilbert.

CP i dont think Corey was in the 40 man squad from memory

[the big bang]

goodes definetly in for me.

sandilands and jolly the standout ruckmen. would rather have frasier than mac!

and no one has mentioned collingwoods defensive rock yet.......PRESTI!!!!!!

you may laugh at me saying Presti, but i think you shall be surprised.

[Rik E Boy]

Good effort carey but Vince ahead of Chapman? I know which of these players kicked six goals that day at Cat park and it werent Vincey. Mackie probably not an AA either amongst the Catters.

Chapman missed too many games IMO.

[Gingernuts]

When is the final side announced?

[CoverKing]

Final side announced tonight on Fox.

Be very interesting to see the side.

[Booney]

Im more interested in who wins the Brownlow and the Premiership.

The AA side will always throw up some that you or I dont agree with and they never "play" together. Not sure what all the fuss is about.

Just my thoughts.

[CoverKing]

Booney the negative one once again
is it because no Power people are involved this year?
and before u say, i know there was not a richmond player in the squad either

[Drop Bear]

Simon Black anyone? He'll be top 5 in the Brownlow votes.....again!

[Booney]

Nope, I knew you'd bring that up though.

Anything subjective like this side always seems to only creat debate not settle it.

The Brownlow and the Premiership are definitive.



*Big words,huh?*

Anyway, you'll miss most of it.

Isn't there an Episode of Australian Idol on tonight?

Geez your a grump these days Booney!

Completely agree on the AA side, I truly don't see the attraction of it.

Grump? Did you see either of my teams at all during 2009! Well within my rights to be a grump.
