@ACT-Crusader Presumably not Gawn and Petracca!?
Gawn wouldn’t make mine but Petracca would. Petracca has had an excellent season.
-
So a few surprises...
Back Sheppard - Andrews - Ryan
Halfback Haynes - Moore - Byrne-Jones
Centre Macrae - Boak - Guthrie
Half forward Dangerfield - Dixon - Bontempelli
Forward Ryan - Hawkins - Martin
Ruck Naitanui - Petracca - NealeInterchange Steele - Daniel - Adams - Gawn
-

-

Not just that but how about they select genuine wings than a couple of midfielders. Surely Gaff in there ahead of Macrae.
And I like the Bont, but if he gets picked as a half forward and has only kicked 11 goals for the season, when there are other half forwards in the 40 man squad that have kicked 25+ goals...
The man love for the midfielders still reigns supreme.

the fact i know so many of those names makes me think they've been picked on reputation
-
Selection is rightly copping heat. Just pick midfielders and stuff them in anywhere is not selecting. It's like they can't imagine a team without all of the biggest names in it.

@barbarian said in AFL 2020:
The half-forward line is where the head scratchers are. Charlie Dixon is a genuine full forward, and picking Danger and Bont there is a bit odd given neither can hit the side of a barn in front of goal.
But you can't have an AA without Bont and Danger...
-
Would’ve actually made more sense selecting Danger as ruck rover and Petracca as half forward
-
Be interesting if Rules was an international sport , and you had an important test series or WC to play ,
What the team would look like ,
Im guessing more emphasis on who stands up in big games
-
@kiwiinmelb @shark guys like Selwood, Pendlebury and a few experienced heads would probably be first names on there.
-
finals kick off tonight with a cracker. Port v Geelong should be huge. Can Geelong actually turn up this finals series? Are Port as good when finals pressure comes on?
Tigers v Brisbane tomorrow. Lions trying to win that fixture for the first time in a million years. I can't see it happening.
Then the eliminations on the weekend. Saints v Bulldogs should be close as fuck. Weagles v Collingwood you would expect to go West Coast's way.
-
Week 1 predictions
Port v Geelong
Lions v Tigers
Saints v Dogs
Eagles v Pies -
Doubt that would pay much

Only two favourites in my picks according to Sportsbet
-
I'm actually surprised the Dogs are favourites
-
Here come the Cats.
I’m no Cats fan and I can’t stand Brad Scott as a coach, but hearing a booing and disgruntled home Adelaide crowd is music to the ears.
-
Geelong looking good at times, finishing 3rd or 4th, and then imploding in the finals. Set your clock by it
Dangerfield is such a soft downhill skier. If he wasn't quick he'd be in reserve grade. And the commentators pull him off constantly
It's almost football heresy, but if the Cats are serious, G Ablett doesn't play again this year. Father time gets even the very best.
Good win by Port. They are a bloody good side. Their prelim in Adelaide means they can start looking at accommodation in Brisbane for GF weekend
