OUR end of season Team of the Round side was picked simply on which players in their normal positions received most weekly nominations.
Nat Fyfe on a half forward flank is the only player out of position given he plays more wing/midfield but I'm sure he would prove reasonable value on a flank.
Selection surprises? The number of times Grant Birchall appeared before missing seven games to injury is testament to just what an outstanding running defender he is.

And I suggest a dollar or two on Patrick Dangerfield come Brownlow medal night on an each way basis around the $21 mark.
Most of the midfielders picked themselves, the unlucky ones including Ryan Griffen, Tom Liberatore, Sam Mitchell, Jobe Watson, Travis Boak and Kieren Jack.
Up back Andrew Walker was one selection off being picked along with Michael Hibberd.
Some of the lesser known names that were picked at least once included Mark Hutchings, Brett Goodes, Sam Kerridge, Jon Griffin, Koby Stevens and Sam Dwyer.
