I think it is, a captain is somewhat of a position, just like a ruckman or a full back. Not only is Gawn the best ruckman in the league, I also think he is the best captain too. I think it's an insult to give it to Hawkins.

All Australian Team-
F- Curnow, Hawkins (C), Stengle
HF- Petracca, Cameron, Bolton
C- Miller, Oliver, Mills
HB- Sinclair, Taylor, Saad
FB- Stewart, May, Maynard
R- Gawn, Cripps (VC), Neale
I- Blicavs, Brayshaw, Heeney, Rozee


Daughter was on the phone to me last night and we were discussing the AA, she's a Crows supporter and we were talking about who might get a gig, I did say that Rozee will probably jag the last spot on the bench :lol: :lol:

FWIW, I think it's brilliant that Stengle got a gig, well done young man.

Hard to find fault in the side, I thought the squad was a bit pooped up but the final team looks around the mark.

I probably underestimated the year Heeney had, the Bont is a bit stiff and I thought a 2nd ruck is usually occupying a seat on the bench, I gets Blicavs is that man.

I bit surprised that the Coleman Medalist doesn't get a spot and I thought Sicily had a brilliant brain fartless year, Rory Laird has reason to be bitter too.

Walker making the squad ahead of Buddy was laughable.

Coleman medallist Charlie Curnow did get a spot, he's named in the forward pocket.

I'll see myself out thank you.

I thought he was more of a KPP. Poor excuse though, I realise that.

Never have quite understood the need for a captain....I guess it's a talking point.

Was rapt to see Jack Sinclair get recognised. It wasn't that long ago he was a flaky small forward who acted as the whipping boy for many St Kilda supporters.

Rags to riches for Stengle
He could have been on $400 per game in the country if things had continued for him

Had a great year, on top of the AA inclusion he also made it into my Supercoach team.....................and didn't get injured because of it.

Getting out of SA would've been a huge factor too, chuck in the fact that Eddie would've taken him under his wing then it all works out for the best.

I wish this Dayne Zorko thing would stop littering my newsfeeds etc.

Even Dayne Beams voiced his opinion, f*** me, surely even his kids wouldn't listen to him.
