Anyone ahead of Ackerley thanks. Loose outside back pocket. How he got Brownlow votes is one of the universes great mysteries. Hankered for the club to go to Sydney then opted out big time.
Craig Bolton is the obvious player to take his place.
Roos to the back flank and Bayes to CHB. Roosey was at the end of his career and was serviceable but Bayes was rarely beaten at CHB. Out goes Carroll who went to the HBF after he commenced his career on the wing. Not tough enough for mine.
Paul Williams over Schwass. I thought Willo's pace, experience and determination was a big factor in us winning the flag.
Stafford an emphatic - No. Jason Ball was a huge influence in our flag. Nick Davis anyone, Amon Buchanan in the GF on the end of the Ball tap.
Goodes becomes a second Ruck Rover with Healey. 2 Brownlows says a position on the wing does him a gross disservice. For sustained service he really should be the No.1 Ruck Rover.
Mitchell to the bench and Cresswell misses out.
On Dale Lewis: us long time baby boomer supporters all loved Lewie. His problem was that he could be awfully lazy. They said he was laconic, I thought maybe he was a yard too slow. No doubting when he got the footy he could sure use it. If compared to O'Keefe I see the difference as O'Keefe being able to sustain real gut running, whereas Lewie seemed to run out of gas. Both good overhead and Lewie was a more penetrating kick. O'Keefe gets the nod.
I think I had 2 gaps on the bench. Rod Carter was rarely beaten and I can't leave Warwick Capper out if Plugger goes down.

Cressa popped his kneecap, Lawson broke his leg, Kelly was reported, it rained all day and we got hammered.
