looks pretty good to me

Not trying to be negative and all selections look justified but reckon J Selwood has to be on ball though. probably kicking pendles out the side to be honest for mine

Yes, he was next in line, I just feel his first 12 weeks were average, which is the reason I left him out. His last 5 weeks have been sensational.

Wow, mine's very different to that.
I tend not to pick players just because their club has been successful.
For instance I rate Jeremy Cameron and Rory Thompson as they've been outstanding in weak teams.
Particularly Cameron who cops the best defender and has the worst delivery each week.
Same reason I went for Riewoldt over Roughead.

F: Chris Mayne (F), Josh Kennedy (WC), Jeremy Cameron (GWS)
HF: Dustin Martin (R), Nick Riewoldt (StK), Chad Wingard (PA)
C: Dan Hannebery (Sy), Kieran Jack (Sy), Travis Boak (PA)
HB: Jarrad McVeigh (Sy), Alex Rance (R), Pearce Hanley (BL)
B: Rory Thompson (GC), Harry Taylor (G), Luke Hodge (H)
R: Will Minson (WB), Ryan Griffen (WB), Gary Ablett (GC)
I: Travis Cloke (Co), Joel Selwood (G), Dane Swan (Co), Scott Pendlebury (Co)

Unlucky: Jarryd Roughead (H), Jake Carlisle (E), Matt Leuenberger (BL), Leigh Montagna (StK), Josh Kennedy (Sy), Sam Mitchell (H), Michael Barlow (F)

Jeremy Cameron would have to be a big sniff - chance to be the Coleman medalist from the bottom side is outstanding.

I sense Wingard will be an unlucky omission from this years side.

Wingard is a certainty.

Why all the love for Martin?
Massive front runner who will be lucky to finish top 5 in his own club awards

Yeah I think they're eager to get him in. Not sure I'd have him over some other players just yet, but the kids a star no question. I hope Boak gets in, he's been super this year.

One would think.. I certainly believe he should be, but I wouldn't be surprised..

Knocked back a new contract from Richmond last week, demanding more cash.... then had an absolute stinker on Sunday. Probably Richmonds worst player in an important game.

If I was Hardwick, I would drop him to the VFL this week and not give him the opportunity to get 30 easy touches this week against GWS.

I agree, he will be border line usually players often have to have two good years in a row before they finally make the cut.

Surely Lindsay Thomas goes into a FWD pocket in most teams.

49 majors for a FWD pocket is a great effort.

Hate the Hawks with a passion Baron but Roughead is a cert. He's had a brilliant year.

Yeah I know he's a cert. Toss up between him and Cloke for me. Cloke's contested marks got him over the line.

I selected Chris Mayne ahead of him, as Mayne has had over 300 disposals compared to Thomas' 190 odd, Mayne has laid almost 40 more tackles for the season and has still kicked 35 goals.

As an overall forward, statistically, Mayne rates higher than Thomas for mine. Take Nothing away from Thomas though- he has had a great year as a small forward. Could very well earn a spot on the interchange.

I'm the same as Valleys. Can't wait to see Mayne in action next year. Reckon he'll kick over 50.

Hate Geelong with a passion but nobody has Stevie J, think he is a certainty on a HFF or bench.
Mayne is also a certainty ahead of Thomas.

Given Roughead will be in a pocket the other 3 small forwards will be Steve J, Wingard and Mayne IMO
