Six Points: Channel 7's commentary, the AFL's most underrated coach, and what on earth is wrong with a draw?
Eight weeks is usually the point where the AFL ladder has taken its shape for the season - and thanks to Opening Round, that's…
The AFL released their 40-man All Australian squad yesterday and, as it always does, it’s set tongues wagging.
Narrowing down the entirety of AFL superstardom to just a list of 40 names is always a controversial task but, with only nine of last year’s 22-man team being considered, this year has proven particularly interesting.
Who’s been snubbed the hardest by the selection committee? Who should feel very lucky to get a spot in the squad?
We got former AFL player turned commentator Tony Armstrong on the Game of Codes podcast, to talk the lucky inclusions and unlucky exclusions from this year’s All Australian crop.
Listen to the discussion:
Many eyebrows were raised at Essendon not having a single name on the list despite them making the finals, while the raw number of inside mids over outside mids has also been a talking point.
Tony Armstrong enjoyed a six-season career in the AFL, playing 35 games for Adelaide, Sydney and Collingwood.
Since retiring, he has since moved into commentary, becoming the first indigenous person to commentate an AFL game radio during Round 22’s Richmond-West Coast clash.
