Sam Mitchell has had a great year and he would be leading the B&F at Hawthorn. Mitchell was near B.O.G against the Cats last week, and he followed that with another B.O.G against the Magpies, so he is in great form, and he would have to be in line for All-Australian.

I found a spot for 6 Geelong players, so i'm not sure who i've left out. Harley, Chapman, and Sellwood are in good form so they could be in All-Australian contention.

Yeah i have overlooked Richo, he has had a great year, i probably should have had him on the bench in place of Brown, or even in a forward pocket in place of Akermanis.

Yeah, Hille has been in great form the last 6 weeks, i went for Jolly becasue he has been consistant for the whole year, but if Hille keeps playing the way he is, he will overtake Jolly by the end of the season.

Yeah, I wrote that before the Geelong game.

i'm looking for a smaller player (or, at least one who plays on smalls)

hasn't really been a standout.
i always thought Johncock would get the nod. he's had a number of good years. but getting dropped. urgh!
Jake King got injured and dropped off the radar.
Joel MacDonald the same.

Tom Harley = no.1 in the competition for taking marks of opposition kicks

and if he actually makes the team, there's a good chance he'd be named AA captain.

Good point Tippaz, and with Milburn being suspended for the rest of the Season i might replace him with Tom Harley on a back flank. If Harley did make the team it would be a toss-up between him and Brett Kirk for captain.
