How does Bont, Selwood and Treloar get a nom but Duncan doesn't?

You really need to be told why Selwood gets a gig? :shock:

I think the number of games you play should be a factor as to whether you get picked in the final 22. Toby Greene only played 16 games, Josh Kennedy (WCE) 17 games and Joel Selwood and Michael Hibberd only played 18 games. How can Toby Greene make the final 22 if he has missed more than a quarter of the season? I'm not convinced the others have done enough in less games to get selected.

If Buddy hadn't kicked a bag last week Kennedy would have won the Coleman despite only playing 17 games. Pretty harsh to leave him out on that basis...?
If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

I read on social media that Kennedy, McGovern and Yeo have flown to Melbourne. You would think all 3 would be in the side if thats the case

I think Kennedy is fighting for Full Forward with Ben Brown. So does Kennedy's 65 goals in 17 games for a top 8 team that won 12 games warrant his selection over Ben Brown's 63 goals in 22 games for a team that finished 15th and won half as many games. I reckon Ben Brown will get it. We'll see.
