    Re: 2016 Under 22 AA Squad

    How does Daniel get overlooked for, Martin, Membrey, Wines, Heeney, Petracca, and even Stringer? He at least had better seasons than any of them and in my view should have been in the first half a dozen chosen.

    Who is on the selection committee?

    Isn't this done as part of the players association, so essentially picked by the players.

    If I'm not mistaken this one is another of those joke awards. Unless it's changed I'm sure the final 22 are based on votes submitted by anyone wanting to cast a vote via social media - akin to the Logies.

    How does Jack Martin make the team? He's shown almost nothing at AFL level. The fact he got in ahead of Caleb Daniel is even more laughable. Petracca hasn't done much more than Martin either.

    From my understanding the general public vote on the team by selecting their best 22.

    No Caleb Daniel is absolutely jaw dropping.

    DD, did you cast your votes on Twitter and Facebook etc for Caleb like the Suns Marketing Dept probably did for Jack Martin ? It's understandable when it's based simply on a public vote.

    I didn't realise Jack Martin played this year. TBH I had completely forgotten about him.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Was Jack Macrae eligible?
