Re: All Australian squad of 40
Well done to our 3, Bont & Daniel locks IMO. Macrae should also get in, but probably a bench spot most likely.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Re: All Australian squad of 40
I like this squad, there are a lot of terrific players that tend to fly under the radar
Sheppard, Steele, Vlastuin, Byrne-Jones, Jonas and Maynard for starters seem to be under appreciated by others outside of their own supporters
Is Taberner a bit on the lucky side?

I've always been a huge Vlastuin fan. He's a gun and very underrated.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

Ummm - he's been unbelievably good so I vote no.
What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

I haven't watched much of him this year but by the sounds of things he was a good out for us last week

Re: All Australian squad of 40
Butters is going to be a really good player but that’s a ridiculous selection.

Re: All Australian squad of 40
Players for the final 22 should be picked for the position they play. Extras can go on the bench.
I really hate when they can't decide and for example put in two talls in the FF and FP, or Bontempelli on the wing.

Re: All Australian squad of 40
Haynes has had a terrible last six weeks.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

Is no Cripps a surprise? I haven't seen a lot of the Blues this season.

Looks like he's been carrying a niggle all year. Wasn't voted as one of the Blues 3 MVP candidates by his own playing group, either.
A down year for sure.

Pretty sure he is already gone in for surgery - I think shoulders, but could be wrong

No surprise at all.
Some of the more notable omissions are: May, Whitfield, Goldstein, Saad, Duncan.
