So he's not the FP in the AA team? :confused:

If he had kicked over 50 goals he would have been named but seeing as he only kicked 50 he has missed out to Betts on selection.

he will be spewing he didnt kick that 1 more goal which would have made the difference

While I think Andrew Walker should have been in ahead of Eddie Betts the fact that Betts' mere inclusion will shit every single flog on Big Footy to tears makes me :lol:

Betts was probably a bit lucky, Walks has been better. Jamo should really be there, or at least deserves to be there, but I guess 13 rounds probably wasn't enough to go by.

The media love affair with this mob is making me seriously ill.
If we lose this week - god help me.

Betts has been nominated for sustained form over a couple of years.

I agree. It's almost like you have to be close for a couple of years before you get named. You only get named after one year if you've got someone absolutely spruiking your case in the media every week, like Leon Davis had with BT a few years back.

lol herald sun headline - no bombers in all australian squad

Funny and extremely typical. How dare the AA selectors direct such opprobium towards the Dons? :donk:

The Herald Sun will announce their AA squad tomorrow. Bravery is one of the key selection criteria. Here's an advanced preview.

Eh, maybe I'm off from not seeing enough games due to being in/out of hospital, or just bitter because Jamo got injured early when he was looking like the best KPD this year.

No Yarran (over Betts), Bartel, Rioli, Montagna, Sewell, Mumford (over Goldstein?)

All Aust squad of 40 out. No Yarran, Bartel, Rioli, Montagna, Sewell, Mumford... seems a bit weird... But no Bombers, so not entirely bad...
