Halfway through the AFL season, the contenders for All Australian selection are truly starting to emerge.

But which players across the competition are beginning to make certain of their spots in the 2019 Virgin Australia AFL All Australian side?

AFL.com.au has identified seven Crows that could earn a call-up in 2019.

Recent history

The Crows have had at least one representative in the All Australian team for the past seven seasons dating back to 2012. Defender Rory Laird was their sole selection last year after having multiple players in the team for the previous four seasons. Eddie Betts is the most decorated current player on the Crows' list with three All Australian jumpers from 2015-17.

Contenders

Brad Crouch

The midfielder is enjoying an outstanding season after missing all of last year with a groin injury. Fourth in the League for disposals (31.9 per game), 10th in clearances and in the top 20 for contested possessions.

Matt Crouch

Overshadowed this year by the return of older brother Brad, but Matt is putting together a fine season in his own right. Missed three games. Averaging 31.9 disposals per game and added an outside element to his game.

Alex Keath 

The 27-year-old late bloomer has been a standout in the Crows' backline with his intercept marking. He's ranked second in the League for intercepts and in the top 20 for marks, along with averaging 17.9 disposals per game.

Rory Laird 

The busy half-back is on track for his third straight All Australian jumper. Averaging 28.6 disposals and 5.4 marks per game. Laird is ninth in the League for disposals, ninth for intercepts and in the top 20 for rebound 50s. 

Tom Lynch 

A consistent performer who is yet to break through for an All Australian jumper. Missing three games might cost the link-up half-forward, but he's been great when he's on the field, averaging 21.7 disposals, 7.1 marks and averaging just over a goal per game. 

Rory Sloane 

The Crows co-captain makes the most of every possession he gets. Fifth in the League for tackles, seventh for contested possessions and in the top-20 for inside 50s and clearances. Averaging 25.1 disposals per game. Has one previous All Australian jumper in 2016.

Daniel Talia 

The stoic key defender is back to the form that earned him All Australian honours in 2014 and 2016. He's fourth in the League in one percenters, and rarely gets beaten one-on-one.
