2016 All Australian team

[quinny88]

Tough thing to predict because there's always great players that miss out, but have a crack at what you think the team will be and see how close you get. I'm going with:

FB: D.Rampe, D.Talia, J.Mcgovern

HB: K.Simpson, A.Rance, C.Enright

C: D.Hannebery, J.Selwood, R.Sloane

HF: P.Dangerfield, L.Franklin, L.Parker

FF: E.Betts, J.J.Kennedy, T.Lynch

Foll: M.Gawn, J.P.Kennedy, S.Pendlebury

I/C: L.Neale, D.Martin, M.Bontempelli, J.Steven

[Jukes]

I'd go with:

AA
FB: Rampe, Rance, Tarrant
HB: Docherty, Simpson, Shaw
M: Hannebery, Bontempelli, Parker
HF: Merrett, Riewoldt (c), Lynch
FF: Betts, Franklin, Kennedy/Gunston
R: Gawn, Dangerfield, Selwood
Int: Talia/Laird, Sloane, Coniglio, Martin

22Under22
FB: Laird, Weitering, Williams
HB: Mills, Maynard, Docherty
M: Coniglio, Merrett (c), Viney

Woops, I was copy pasting them over from my post on BF that was a couple weeks old and mucked up the editing. Fixed.

I'd be quite shocked if Michael makes it after the year he's had :P.

Daniel did have a killer year so expect him to gain the spot!

After the year Docherty/Zerrett had, I can see the selectors trying to fit them in there.

Yeah thats the first thing I noticed, I'm a fairly one eyed Eagles fan but I would still include Zerrett over Gaff.

[Bill Manspeaker]

yeah I'd have Merrett in

I'd also have Nick Riewoldt in

[Jukes]

Geez the AFL screwing over and hating on the dons, never seen this before...

[elephants]

Yeah the stiff ones for me are Riewoldt and Zerrett but it wouldn't be AA selection morning if there wasn't some controversy. Priddis normally makes the 40 man squad too (not saying he should here).

[LF]

I'd also have Nick Riewoldt in

Yep to both
