Collingwood stars Scott Pendlebury, Brodie Grundy and Adam Treloar have been named in this year's 40-man Virgin Australia AFL All Australian squad.

Reigning premier West Coast has a competition-high seven players in the squad.

Jack Darling, Andrew Gaff, Shannon Hurn, Jeremy McGovern, Brad Sheppard, Luke Shuey and Elliot Yeo are all in contention for the final 22, which will be unveiled on Wednesday night.

However, three Giants are among the major snubs, with Stephen Coniglio (15 games), Lachie Whitfield (16) and Tim Taranto (22) all overlooked.

Richmond's Tom Lynch, Docker Bradley Hill, Geelong's Mitch Duncan and Bomber Zach Merrett also missed out.

Essendon, Gold Coast and St Kilda were the only clubs without a representative.

Twenty squad members are in line to be a first-time All Australian, while 2018 representatives Patrick Cripps, Brodie Grundy, Patrick Dangerfield, Tom Stewart, Max Gawn, Dustin Martin, Andrew Gaff, Shannon Hurn and Jeremy McGovern are also in the running.

Dual Brownlow medallist Gary Ablett could set a new record of nine All Australian selections if he is chosen in the final team.

Fellow Cat Dangerfield is going for a seventh blazer, and Pendlebury is trying to make the team for a sixth time.
