All Australian 2015 - no Demons in squad

Featured Replies

Once again not a single Demon player has made the 40 man All Australian Squad.

No Vince makes this squad a joke.

Selectors are (as far as I can work out) Gillon McLachlan (chairman), Kevin Bartlett, Luke Darcy, Mark Evans,Danny Frawley, Glen Jakovich, Cameron Ling and Mark Ricciuto.

Darcy is a disrespectful [censored] who has it in for our club, the others seem OK.

How about we worry about winning games.

Everything stems from that.

 

Also no

  • Lions
  • Blues
  • Cats
  • Suns
  • Saints

Fair enough.


Yes but we are one of six Clubs to not have a single player (and during the year we still beat the Western Bulldogs who have five players)!

at least this time i dont sit there and go, how the hell is jones not in there over x y and z?

although - Heath Shaw??

You can't tell me Lachie Neale has had a better year than Bernie. I've watched plenty of Freo as well. Joke

Shame, but look across the squad and who would you leave out..?

Dane swan comes to mind, has been good but Vince has been better.

Unfortunately while Bernie had a lot of very good patches, he went missing for 3-4 games a time, two or three times. His last four or five games, he was pretty much unsighted except for the last round.

Unsurprising.

Nathan Jones was far more deserving last year than Vince was this year.

That said, Heath Shaw? Over Tom McDonald?

Wow.

Wow.

Disagree except for the last 4 weeks or so, this is about the whole year though, not just one lean patch. I think the last few weeks would have taken him out of the team but not the squad!

Rory Laird???? Who the hell is that? Swan, Ibbo also lame selections.

Bernie was very stiff to miss out.

Wow.

Swanny also had a few games where he did SFA.

Swan out, Vince in.

Rory Laird???? Who the hell is that? Swan, Ibbo also lame selections.

Rory has had a good year but Shaun Burgoyne has done nothing. He is there on reputation alone. Averaging 9 kicks and 10 HBs. Pathetic.

Michael hurley. FMD what a joke

TBH I have taken no notice of the AA since they refused to include Adem Yze years ago. Claimed that a player had to put in a number of years of solid performances to get in the team. Farkoff, 2001 Yze average 22.2 disposals, 4.8 marks and 1goal 1bh.

Edit: put in link

SIX clubs got none

ONE club got one

so i don't think we were singled out. it is just pretty skewed to 11 clubs

TMac was in AA until Cloke decided to put in a big one on QB, after that it took him about 8 weeks before he showed anywhere near his capabilities.

Vince I would've thought he'd get in the squad, he's had a sensational year. But not a huge surprise given our year.

Shaun Burgoyne for a start... How he is in the squad I do not know. Armitage & Vince the most unlucky

Heath Shaw has been excellent this year, will get in the team.

Surprised Armitage and Vince didn't make the squad.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
