    2018 All Australian Squad.

    http://m.afl.com.au/news/2018-08-27/...squad-for-2018

    Unsurprisingly, Jack Macrae the only Bulldog listed. Would be a travesty if he missed out.

    I still have him as a Brownlow smoky, missed weeks and all. Just an out and out A grader.

    Alex Rance. FMD.

    Obviously they go by name and not exposed form.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    I think I am on my own, but I don't rate Rance as highly as others. He is in the Silvani mold, scraggs, wrestles, dives and gets away with it.

    I’m surprised Stratton didn’t make the cut.

    AA team is a bit like the rising star - picked by a bunch of boys who have favourites.

    He’s had the season Rance is meant to have. He should be in the 22. How he’s not in the squad is astounding.

    Really hope Jacko makes it. He's got the form, got a bit of attention pre injury and his numbers stack up favourably.

    Well deserved for Jack Macrae. Hopefully he makes it. Would be favourite for our B&F with Toby McLean, Lachie Hunter not too far behind and will poll well in the Brownlow.

    Blicavs - did I miss something?

    I'm rapt duckwood missed though. I wish I could've seen his face as he realised he wasn't named.

    Brownlow as well. The umps favourites not necessarily statistically the best player.

    Blicavs was a surprise inclusion, so was Shane Edwards.

    Thought Coniglio would've made the squad, too.

    He's got this year's "was anointed in about round 12 as an AA candidate so better include him to not make the experts look stupid" spot.

    Usually it goes to a backup ruckman but there's two good ones this year so lucky Mark I guess.

    What's interesting is Jack's had more 30+ possession games this season than "ball magnet" Tom Mitchell despite playing 3 less games.
