Harris and Randall are harshly done by there, both had there moments with us, Harris even represented City

i mean niether would make our current 17 but to lump em in with the others is just not right

 

[CliffyIsGod]

Both were bad. Randall was ok until anyone and everyone worked out his blind-side play and I still don't know how Harris was picked for City.

 

[ManlyBacker]

They are very close to my picks too SB. It is hard to believe that others pushed Kane Cleal out of a starting spot in team 2.

 

[Chip and Chase]

I'd have to find a spot for Steppa in team 2 as well, probably in place of McGuinness.

Also not sure I'd have both Willo and Monas on the bench in team 1, don't need 2 utilities. Would go with one of Hall or Rose for Willo. 

 

[Matabele]

Luke Williamson has photos of Silent Bob too?

 

[Ryan]

Where is David Vaeliki?

 

[Fro]

I thought Tony Jensen was not a bad worker during his time, I saw him as similar to Ferris, nothing Flashy but an honest sort of player.

The rest I agree are rubbish

 

[SilentBob]

Dorn, Cannings, Nathan Long, Craig Hayne, Hollingsworth, Nick Paterson, Robson, Tutt, Witt, Cleal, Mailangi Styles, Halden were all considered.

Willo was the last player picked, he did his job for 5-6 years with no fuss, no real stand out though. Hall had a good few months out of 3 years and Rose spent most of the last couple of years sitting on his arse while his leg healed. Maybe Bryant could squeeze in, Heckenburg played his role fairly well during the rebuilding stage, maybe Hoppa could have the spot?

 

[Matabele]

Well if blokes are getting into the side on the basis of one good year in that period, then Jason King is your man.

 

[The Wheel]

Not sure if I would put Willo in there but I reckon des would.

I like the 2nd side - some absolute rubbish in that.  I agree with Chad inclusion, he was diabolical for us IMO.  Over rated because of one thing - his last name.

  He also had to wear the burden of being proclaimed the "next big thing" by Guru Gould.

As opposed to Magi Matabele
