Tracc was great the other night but it was also great to see Clarry back to his one touch brilliance...hitting the ball at speed, puts the hand down and takes the ball so cleanly. He's had a great year but I think he's coming back up to another level as we head to finals...

I’m not crying about it but I think Wines was pretty unlucky not to get a vote from his own coach

Coaches got it right.  They were the 7 most influential players on the ground. I did like Petty's game too.

Other than the goal he kicked did Wines hit a target by foot?

Oliver is ridiculously underrated by the footy community and commentators. Luckily those who really matter rate him as the best mid in the competition.

Also worth noting TMac is on 39 votes, having polled in 10 different games. He is actually in the top 3 non onballers on the list, so has to be considered for All Aust on those grounds. Like the Brownlow this list with all on ballers. Tom Stewart the first non onballer on the list with 43 votes.

Agree.  Tom McDonald having an excellent year and getting recognition.  His effort and goals in the 3rd quarter v Power was critical.

Oliver to be where he is when Gawn, Trac and May are stealing votes off him is awesome...Imagine if he could kick set shots...

3 in the top 20 is such an achievement for the Dees. These three guys are definitely a lock for AA at this stage. I also think May, Salem, Lever, Lingers and TMac should all make the 40 man AA squad, cant see more than 1 (probably May) getting through to final squad though.

If he can work on that prior to finals and start nailing his one or two shots a week, that would go a very long way to us winning a flag!
