Richmond v All-Stars @ Alice Springs

[Red and Blue Bloke 20]

ALL-STARS SQUAD

Aaron Davey, Liam Jurrah, Jamie Bennell (Melbourne).

I am proud that our guys are representing, but, please - for the love of God - do not get injured.

Richmond have named a pretty lame squad, even for them, but we have got some of our best talent out there...

Maybe, but for them to represent indigenous footballers in this game is a great honour... so I am really pleased for them; besides, I can't really see that Richmond side being capable of inflicting anything, much less injury, on anyone.

no aussie or neville jetta?

How does Bennell get named ahead of Wonna?

[Keyser Söze 0]

How could he not?

[Je Roos Salem 661]

Expect Jurrah to explode on Friday night. Not literally, like he is prone to in pre-season games, but in the sense that he will be best on ground.

How does Bennell get named ahead of Wonna?

Probably for the same reason he would in an MFC 22.

If Bennell and Wonna were in the draft at your pick who would you take - I'd take Bennell.

I think Aussie shouldve been given a shot over a couple of GWS fools.

How does Bennell get named ahead of Wonna?

For a start, he is fitter.

[Curry & Beer 5,444]

I would have thought the fact that his late father having a strong involvement in NT/indigenous footy might have helped get Ozzie a guernsey, perhaps it is fitness as suggested above

Bennell is underrated

davey, jurrah, bennell........delicioussss!

[The Big Ticket 94]

This will be fun to watch. Jurrah likes playing against the Toiges.

What, you mean he is not really going to blow up?

I found it intresting that in the article they say "AFL players Cyril Rioli, Buddy Franklin and Liam Jarrah."

I guess Jurrah has become a bigger drawcard than Davey in the media now.

Good luck to all those picked. I can't wait to watch and get some footy fix.

My tip: All Stars by 25pts. Davey to star.

Also interesting to watch out for a B.Miller who has been named for the Tigers.

GREAT, I don't want our stars playing in this Mickey Mouse crap.

Maybe "mickey mouse crap" to you, but for those players representing the indigenous footballers is considered quite an honour. But you're right, why should we care about what they want... we know what's best for them!

Practice matches where players have to travel and potentially get injured playing against Richmond thirds, YES to me are Mickey Mouse whatever the cause.

[Flying Cloud 152]

The game has been cancelled due to predicted bad weather.

Pity, I was looking forward to some footy on TV tonight. Will just have to wait another week to see Aaron, Jamie and LJ.
