picking the All-Australian CHB

[Tippaz]

is it unfair to select Chad Cornes at CHB???

before, i was tossing up between Waite and Egan, but Chad Cornes at CHB really does make the team better.

He's played at a number of positions this year, so it is quite difficult picking which position for him to play. Not sure how often he's played at CHB though(?). My take is that the CHB should preferably be the standout CHB in the league (IMO there hasn't been one), if not then the 2nd best tall lockdown defender.

i agree with the first part of that, but not the second part.

Nick Riewoldt can cover up to 20km per game (on occassion).
you need someone who can run with him, and Chad is physically capable.

with Chad at CHB, i've got an extra midfielder (Nathan Foley) on the bench.
and for what it's worth, i think Foley has been miles better than Egan or Waite this year.

Chad plays midfield. He never took any key forward this year, he was soley a midfielder.
