10 with hometowns in Ontario
4 from Newfoundland
3 from Nova Scotia
3 from Quebec
2 from British Columbia
1 from Saskatchewan

 

[AUS Fan]

The next hard decision will be who gets letters. I was not at the camp so I don't know who the leaders were. I do know in 2007 that Colin Sinclair was the players "choice". The other coaches will want one of their guys with a letter. Heelis, Bloodoff and Culligan are all captains. Tanaka and Slaney are A's. I can almost guarantee that Culligan will wear the C, perhaps rotating home and away games with either Heelis or Bloodoff. Slaney and Wall with A's.

 

[FreddyFoyle]

Gardiner hinted that he'd have probably have separate co-captains for white and red sweaters as they did last time AUS was there, so I'd bet on Culligan and Bloodoff.

I like your picks for A's, Slaney and Wall.
