The state side was named, well sort of. They have trimmed the squad down for 34 to 27. I think there are a few shockers too be honest. No aspley players were picked and you have to wonder what games they have been watching this season, by the looks of it they were going to pick Copeland in the side and he deserved to picked. But for some reason they left out Reece toye. Reece Toye has been one of the best player in the comp so far this season and he hasn't even got a look in. I have always thought they will pick their favourites and they have certainly with this squad. Danny wise is a puzzling one as well. Yes he is a fantastic footballer, but he hasn't had that great of a season. I reckon Darren O'Brien and David James have had better seasons than he has and might have been closer to being picked. But some of the player if not a majority deserve to be picked. Nathan kinch should feel a fair bit unlucky as well in not being picked. He has held that team together just about, when they were struggling and is probably having a better season than the year he won the grogan. Also do we need lions and suns rookie listed players, I don't know if the sandgropers have them in the side. Why the hell should we. Pick players who deserve, not because they are on a lions or suns list and having an alright season. Lets just pick them. I have a feeling it's going to be a long long day for the maroon in mandurah
