How the **** did Zac Merrett not make the 40?

36 goals and nearly 20 possessions per game for a half forward. Deserves a spot in the 40 but no chance for the 22

Gunston better year than Tom Lynch(adel) but agree neither will be in final 22.

Cant see Mitchell making final 22 either but Cyril is a certainty

Basically only Betts and Cyril as the pro small forwards in the group, so I'd say they both make it.

Toby Greene, small forward but lucky to make the squad I reckon

Thought he was a bit inconsistent, especially in the latter half dealing with a few tags

Played a lot through the midfield as well tho. Had a pretty good year, but lucky to be in the 40.

I can't believe Robbie Gray didn't even make the squad. He'll poll more Brownlow votes than half of that group. AA selectors have no f#@ing idea!

Brownlow medal votes aren't quite the same as what the All Australian team is about. Not to mention the fact he'd need to poll more than those in his position. If he gets more votes than Daniel Talia, doesn't mean he's a better CHB.

I do like though that you have more faith in the umpires than the AA selectors.
