Not really reputation.  He just went about his usual stuff. Averaging 28 touches a game is still awesome.

You guys just rate him hard as he didnt have an outstanding year compared to his standards. It was still outstanding compared to everyone elses.

No idea how Priddis missed out, had an amazing year

+1

Thought he would definitely get in as well as Parker.

Sidebottom and Beams both had better years than Pendlebury

Disagree. Had a better second half maybe but look at the full year, don't think pendles ever had a bad game


Jacobs a head scratcher. Guess they didn't want 3 crows

Ballas deserves to be in there. He's had a big year

Don't get me wrong, I think Pendles should've made the squad, just that Priddis was better than a few of the players named this year IMO, Pendles included.

My changes would be something like:
OUT: Roughy, Boak, Sandilands, Ballantyne
IN: Parker, Priddis, Jacobs, Dusty/Boomer/GUNston

I agree with maybe Boak going out and he's pretty overrated this year (but he's still good), but Roughy deserved to stay and you have to put into prospective of ladder positions, e.g. Freo high, Adelaide low.

Roughy second in the coleman, has had a brilliant year, balla kicked more than 50 goals, not many other small forwards did that, Sandi and Jacobs is a 50/50 and IMO Boak had a better year than Priddis.

As a whole IMO they got the team right.

Bigger then Betts or Gunston?

Mailman the 2nd

When you consider the fact that Parker was a mid/forward, while only averaging 2 less possesions than Pendles a game, you can see why he got picked on reputation. Matt priddis also better throughout than Pendles

Jacobs easily the best all round ruckman. Ballantyne shouldn't really be there either. Riewoldt gets some slack because his teammates severely hampered his year throughout with shocking delivery.

McKenzie a bit stiff but you can have any combo of 3 with those 4 guys.

50/50. He kicked 50 goals and pressure is best in the league. Deserves to be there
