I reckon he's quite right not to name any sainters, been a pretty miserable year, sinmilar to Geelong's 2006. Let's hope we have their 2007 next year (only don't f**k it up)

Chips should be AA. Has had an awsome season, but doesn't get much media attention. If he was a high draft pick, had famous parents or had a massive impact in his first year then he would be held in much higher regard. But he was a no-name fringe player recruited with a late pick from the SANFL, who just gradually improved in a side which already had many big names.

Dal Santo, Fisher and Riewoldt are all good enough and have had good enough seasons to make it, but they're not the only ones. Dal Santo probably will get pushed out by less effective midfielders with more disposals. Fisher has impressive stats, but where do you name him? He's played CHB, FB and as a loose tall in defence. Is he more worthy than somebody who played the same role every week? Roo's got less goals than Brown or Pavlich. Does he deserve CHF ahead of them, or do you put him somewhere where he didn't play?

I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't have anyone in the team. It's really just a matter of who impresses the selectors.

his disposal of the footy hasnt been the best :(
Fisher's? Fisher's disposal is pretty good. He generally hits a target, and generally takes a good option, be it contested or otherwise. Without the numbers in front of me, I believe his eff. is in the low 80s.

He's not freakish ala Goddard regularly hitting running targets 50-60m away (Goddard's eff. over 7 games was something like 88%), but it's certainly good enough that coupled with his ability to command the football from teammates and take it from the opposition that i think it's safe to say he's taken the next step from rebound player to playmaker.

I was naming defenders only. I'm willing to go out on a limb and predict Matty Pavlich will not be named as a starting back on the AA team. :)

Who would I put in before Sam Fisher? For a start, if he was fit, Brendan Goddard.
