The only top 8 side not to have representation was us.

Swannies for life!
Fancy finishing 5th and not getting 1 player in.
Whilst it does show we are a champion team rather than a team of champions, it still is frustrating.

YOU BETCHA!!!!!!
Mummy should have been in there instead of Jamar but ah well its only a fantasy team. They won't be able to ignore us next year when we rip the comp to shreds!
Jack on Judd for Tackle of the Year ?! :-)
Walls (selector) admitted on OWAAT that Mummy was stiff to miss out but Jolly was well off the pace.

I think it is fair enough that there weren't any Swans. I don't think I would put any of the three in the squad ahead of any who actually made the team - including Mumford for Jamar. It reflects the fact that we had very solid contributions from a large number of players, rather then relying on one or two week in, week out.. Which bodes reasonably well for the future development of the squad.
