(All Australian picked on position. Ie: Back pockets and half back flankers for each team nominated for the half back and back pocket positions for the All Australian team. Half fowards and forward pockets likewise. Midfield spreads over wings, centre, ruck-rover and rover. Rucks only nomination for ruck. Bench is the next best four players in any position. Emergency is the next best three in any position.)

i 2 comments...pretty decent effort, and good knowledge of each team..

and: ou have way too much time on your hands

[Oh When the Saints]

Finished exams SaintBot?

[n1ck]

and: ou have way too much time on your hands

i second that!

[st_Trav_ofWA]

looking at that list on paper we match up extreemly well agains all the sides
but as we know the game aint played on paper

[Armoooo]

Good work, I see somebody also rates Jamison quite highly

As for the AA team, it's good on the whole but I think you have gone too tall, however I am glad to see only deserving Geelong players

I think I would go...

i would of loved to have done that but instead i made it though i could only pick midfielders in midfield positions

so brad johnson and brent harvey etc couldnt have been selected as forwards

Aww yeah, fair enough, I only chose those players in those positions (Harvey, Johnson, Ablett) because I believe that they player their best football in those certain positions however their teams need them more in the midfield... Even after Ablett's stellar season I still believe that in a perfect team he would be in a forward pocket or flank...

when was the last time brad johnson played as a permanent midfielder?

i reckon for the last 5 years hes been almost a fulltime forward and deserves to be an AA forward..

How have way too much time on your hands.....
