      I know these things don't matter - but seems ridiculous that ALL of Morris, Libba Dahlhaus, Macrae, Stringer, Wood and Johannisen missed.
      And Picken. He's been a top 30 player in the competition the last 2 years. Could almost mount an argument for Dickson as well.

        I guess as far as small forwards go - not many around have kicked 90 goals in the last 2 seasons!

            Libba a big part in the first 2 highlights, too.

            Great to see him included, but like others can't believe we didn't get another single player in. Oh well...
            Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

              100% Doc.
              Let them all underate us.
              It clearly worked for all the other 17 teams last year!!!

                And no Easton wood or Matthew Boyd or Jack Macrae. It's actually very interesting because this is the players choice. They really do underrate our list. Even though article after article proclaims our list to be one of the best, if not the best, in the league. We really should have about 5-8 players in that list. Very interesting indeed.

                  Highlights that most players have no real idea and just follow the individual hype.

                  For mine
                  Bont
                  Libba
                  Stringer
                  Macrae
                  JJ

                  all belong in the list.

                    You could mount a case for Dalhaus, Hunter and Murphy too, Jobe Watson is in there FFS.

                      Couldn't agree more Doc, happy just reaping the team rewards.

                        Would take The Bonts easily over all of them.

                          In the annual AFL Captains survey 2 of them have picked us to miss the 8 and only 1 thinks we will make the grand final.

                            Love being the underdog. Thanks Bob for picking us.

                              That's crazy.

                              I can see Bevo using this as a bit of motivational ammo, given his comments from the season launch about disrespect.

                              Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                                The question was which other club will make the Grand Final, implying your club will be the other contender. So it couldn't have been Bob that picked us

                                14 picked GWS, the other 4 all picked different clubs so we were equal 2nd
                                If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
