i think Daveys issue was that the game against Freo was his only good one this year, they are rewarding form although u could put up a case that Sewell and Gilbee should be in the Vic side.
The SA teams will always dominate the sides cause Port and Crows r generally pretty strong and the players they have are pretty good.
WCE have a few WA boys but Freo r shockers.
Most of Brissies guns r Vics like Brown, Bradshaw, Lappin, Power, Adcock and so on.
if we were full strength we would beat the Vics, now i think they have a better all round side but our forward line is still great with Buddy, Richo, Mooney, Pavlich and so on
