Did a quick player compare on Hawkins vs Brown as i expected Hawkins to be in front on most stats, the two are quite similar - nothing really pushes one over the other. The main decision you would think then comes down to who kicked the most goals this year (Brown). Maybe the selectors discounted his 10 the other week as it was only vs the Port Pushovers.
I think apart from Hawkins, everyone's spot is warranted, we basically had the back 6 picked Monday on here.
Treloar, Kelly, Pendels all great players but I’d be taking Dusty ahead of all of them ... Basically carried the Tigers while they were missing the usual input of fellow leaders Cotchin and Riewoldt.
Don’t reckon it was McGoverns best year either from what I saw (albeit I didn’t see a lot of the Eagles)
Unrelated to the AA side but who would you prefer to win you a final Hawkins or Brown? Hawkins for mine, Brown gets pushed off the ball too easily for my liking.

Hawkins sets up a lot more goals too and does more around the ground IMO so it's a no brainer he gets the nod
So you've seen everything have you? Yep Have you ever seen a man eat his own head? No Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

Dusty isn't eligible .... who else?
Nobody. Will be eithet Cripps, Bont, Danger or Fyfe
Would like to see Bont win it but Macrae & Dunkley will take a lot of votes off him. Fyfe, Neale, Cripps the front runners for me. Dangerfield may be around the mark, again Kelly will take a lot away from him though

I would have Dusty ahead Macrae. Like Dusty, Macrae had a relatively quiet start to the year. Macrae gets a lot more possessions, but they aren't as effective as Dusty's. I would even argue that Dunkley has had a more consistent year than Macrae and it wouldn't surprise me if he polls better than Macrae in tbe Bulldogs B&F.

Bont should not be eligible. If he wins I hope he thanks Michael Christian

Grundy for mine, Danger, Neale and Fyfe right up his clacker.
Infact, my crystal balls tell me there will be multiple winners.
