David King’s Predicted 2022 AA Team

Obviously any selection is only a guess at this time of year ...... but to leave Max out ..... stupidity.

I reckon the practice game he played against Carlton was off the the planet and Brownlow votes worthy.

Not a bad start to the season.

    Sam Walsh is set to miss the first 4 games of the season. Limited preseason and a tricky injury to recover from i think he will struggle to make AA selection. Class player though

    The definition of a slow news day.

    4 Lions and 2 Dogs in the team. King must think the Lions are going to try to challenge us for the flag.

    Max not in because Jacko will get more game time?

    Pendlebury - are you serious?

    Pendlebury will be a weapon off halfback.

    Depends how often he gets on the ground...the end comes fast at his age.

    I hate everything to do with ‘cancel culture’ but fully support David King being cancelled after seeing this.

    Mind-numbing rubbish. So many things to complain about in this selection but I’ll just mention one: why does everyone rate Jeremy Cameron so high? Yes he could once play but what has he done for two seasons now?

    He must want publicity for not picking Gawn.

    The All Australian captain, premiership captain, hero who kicked a goal after the siren to win his team the minor premiership and tallest player ever to kick 5 goals in a final.

    Seriously, who cares? 

    Also, one year, if Jackson is as good as I think he is, Gawn will be eclipsed and will move off to the undying lands…

    … the forward pocket next to Fritsch.

    Glad someone rates Salem. No Gawn is trash of course.

    Am I the only one perplexed by Butters instead of Fritsch?

    Gawn out is madness! I also expect BBB to kick 70 plus goals and play FF in this team

    I don't even think Darcy is the best young ruckman going around, i genuinely don't understand the hype, he's looked good against average opposition, but been belted by the Gawn's and Nic Nats of the world.

    2 Positions that stuck out to me were Amon on the wing and Naughton at FF.  LOL.

    Football commentator makes prediction...

    Supporters outraged.... more clicks on website.... more advertising... football commentator given pat on back by boss for creating website traffic... football commentator makes more crazy prediction... more supporter outrage...

    I think I see a pattern.

    Good thoughts Jontee.

    I think your'e on to something re: Max and if true that's Ok,  but Pendelbury is laughable.

    Naughton's underwhelming GF performance soundly beaten by My questions King's 'Insights".  So thus they are predictions which is what the game is al about anyway.  He does love salem so credit there that he's consistent in his selection for that position and recognises him in his team.  Last year he felt Salem was the key to the Dees and oppos needed a plan for him.

    But great article for clickbait and King to remain relevant. I can just hear him quoting Champion data as justification.

    Why no Steven May? Is it because of hammy injuries?

    If that is so, there are plenty in that team with injury concerns

    I have no issues with Max being excluded. Jackson should take time from him, and Darcy is a beast.

    The biggest problem with King’s team is he’s named 5 defenders, a ruck and 2 forwards and flooded the rest of the side with on ballers. Even Amon isn’t a full time winger anymore.

    If you wanted to pick the best 14 midfielders just write a list of them. Don’t hide it in a team.

    Sad part is that's normally how the AA team goes. Big blokes who look like Tarzan play like Jane, a token small forward, best 2 full backs for the year and midfielders 

     

    For the record I think David King can have whomever he wants in he's PREDICTED AA team. The top 50 players list are blowing my mind. Dusty Martin and Nat Fyfe are shadows of their former selves and are constantly rated top 10 players, players like Walsh, Touk Miller and Parish destroy games all year and are ignored 🤷🏽‍♂️

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
