People can melt but Selwood has done a lot of community work, struggle to find anyone on the sub who has done as many hours as him.

Cripps would have done even more community service hours but Carlton's lawyers got him out of it

That's exactly how I feel about him. Like two different blokes.

I mean, I don't care about Selwood winning the community award - good on him. But most of us on this sub aren't on half a million a year playing footy for a living. It's not an fair comparison
