    Not sure if there's a thread already, but here's the 40 man squad:

    Adelaide: Eddie Betts, Patrick Dangerfield, Rory Laird, Taylor Walker
    Collingwood: Scott Pendlebury, Dane Swan
    Essendon: Michael Hurley
    Fremantle: Nat Fyfe, Stephen Hill, Garrick Ibbotson, David Mundy, Lachie Neale
    Greater Western Sydney: Jeremy Cameron, Heath Shaw
    Hawthorn: Shaun Burgoyne, Josh Gibson, Jack Gunston, Jordan Lewis, Sam Mitchell, Cyril Rioli
    North Melbourne: Todd Goldstein, Shaun Higgins
    Port Adelaide: Robbie Gray, Chad Wingard
    Richmond: Brett Deledio, Dustin Martin, Alex Rance, Jack Riewoldt
    Sydney: Dan Hannebery, Josh Kennedy
    West Coast: Andrew Gaff, Josh Kennedy, Jeremy McGovern, Nic Naitanui, Matt Priddis
    Western Bulldogs: Matthew Boyd, Luke Dahlhaus, Robert Murphy, Jake Stringer, Easton Wood

    Thoughts? Not too bad overall for mine. Few names I wouldn't have there, don't really like some of the Hawks nominations, but overall it's decent.

    Was a tad surprised to see Ibbotson's name in there to be honest.

    Yeah I was too. Still he's the sort of player that flies under the radar and he started the season really well IIRC.

    Team almost picks itself imo

    Adelaide: Eddie Betts, Patrick Dangerfield, Rory Laird, Taylor Walker
    Collingwood: Scott Pendlebury, Dane Swan
    Essendon: Michael Hurley
    Fremantle: Nat Fyfe, Stephen Hill, Garrick Ibbotson, David Mundy, Lachie Neale
    Greater Western Sydney: Jeremy Cameron, Heath Shaw
    Hawthorn: Shaun Burgoyne, Josh Gibson, Jack Gunston, Jordan Lewis, Sam Mitchell, Cyril Rioli
    North Melbourne: Todd Goldstein, Shaun Higgins
    Port Adelaide: Robbie Gray, Chad Wingard
    Richmond: Brett Deledio, Dustin Martin, Alex Rance, Jack Riewoldt
    Sydney: Dan Hannebery, Josh Kennedy
    West Coast: Andrew Gaff, Josh Kennedy, Jeremy McGovern, Nic Naitanui, Matt Priddis
    Western Bulldogs: Matthew Boyd, Luke Dahlhaus, Robert Murphy, Jake Stringer, Easton Wood

    About 15 locks imo, so I'd pick:

    FB     Rory Laird - Alex Rance - Jeremy McGovern
    HB Matthew Boyd - Michael Hurley - Heath Shaw
    C Andrew Gaff - Patrick Dangerfield - Nat Fyfe
    HF Chad Wingard - Taylor Walker - Dustin Martin
    FF Jake Stringer - Josh Kennedy - Eddie Betts
    R Todd Goldstein - Matt Priddis - Dan Hannebery
    Int Cyril Rioli -     Josh Kennedy - Sam Mitchell - Brett Deledio


    Couple of 50/50 calls there. Laird and Wood in the back pocket, Matthew Boyd and Robert Murphy (probably McGovern too, but I think three talls should be picked as if this were a side playing a game), and plenty of debate for the bench spots with Pendles, Robbie Gray, and others in the mix.

    Who actually deserves it out of Geelong players? Or is it more that you can't find deserving candidates that is weird?

    nah just weird seeing no players even in the 40, we had no one deserving, just normally used to seeing like 4-5 guys, shows were we are at

    Stefan Martin should've been there before Nic Nat. Martin smashed him in every stat this year.

    Amazed that Pendles and Swan made the squad - both had average years by their standards

    As a Hawks fan I was surprised that Lewis got the nod ahead of Hodge tbh...

    Couldn't give a shit about AA, amounts to nothing. It's just shove as many midfielders into the team as possible.
