Ellis, Dusty and Rance make it for us. I thought they were our only chances to make the squad, although Rance will probably make the team.

[Purple 77]

Wow. flowering Wow. Wow.

[SydneyRox]

Great work for the Swans

Franklin, Kennedy, Malceski, Parker, Smith

[Big Mac]

Wow. flowering Wow. Wow.

Bit of a joke that he didn't make it. The stats don't lie.

[Purple 77]

Hmm, but I can't exactly say there is a worse midfielder there than Jones.

[Jay]

I cant believe Sloane didn't make it. That's a flowering joke :o

[JBs-Hawks]

Hmm, but I can't exactly say there is a worse midfielder there than Jones.

Id take Jones and Sloane over Ellis

Id take Jones and Sloane over Ellis

same here

pretty funny some Essendon fans say Ryder should be in over Sandi have to love biased supporters

[Ricochet]

Hanley's the big one to miss I reckon. Closely followed by Sloane

Great to see Rance, Dusty and Ellis recognised for great seasons, but Sloane and Hanley are very sore to miss out
