Re: Congratulations Nick- All Australian
Im actually a bit surprised.
As good as he is, and his year has been, I thought due to our struggles and his performances slightly dipping mid year he'd miss the cut..
Good on him, absolutely champion, not that was ever in doubt.

Re: Congratulations Nick- All Australian
Love reading all the Riewoldt hate that is flying around from random people on twitter. I didn't think he'd get in, but was thoroughly deserved. Will be on 6 votes after 2 rds. His stats match any of the other forwards. Champion player, well done Roo!
and that's the bottom line

Re: Congratulations Nick- All Australian
http://www.saints.com.au/news/2014-09-1 ... fifth-time
Five times All-Australian. Sounds pretty good doesn't it?
That is what will be appear on Nick Riewoldt’s CV following Tuesday night’s ceremony in which he was selected at centre-half forward in the 2014 All-Australian team.
It is Riewoldt’s first selection since he was named captain in 2009, and St Kilda coach Alan Richardson paid tribute to the 31-year-old’s durability, leadership and work ethic in what was a vintage campaign.
“This accolade is much deserved,” Richardson told SAINTS.com.au.
“Nick had an outstanding year. He played every game and provided terrific leadership to our younger players, both on game day and during the week.
“The fact he’s able to get himself up every week and perform at such a high level is a testament to his preparation and drive to succeed.”
For the first time since 2006, Riewoldt played every game for the year. He took 191 marks – more than any other player in the competition – and booted 49 goals.

Re: Congratulations Nick- All Australian
Huge accolades for Roo again from the "panel".
Even the maligned Whateley described his year as "Epic", having even further enhanced his reputation by holding his head so high week in, week out as an example to the young kids in a bottom team.

commentators and Journos would have been pushing for him to be in just to be able to make him part of the Captaincy group
His standing within the industry has grown this year.

I'm also surprised, I thought he was better last year when Cloke got in ahead of him. Great work still. It took me a long time to really appreciate him but the last couple of years I got there.Sobraz wrote:Im actually a bit surprised.
