Fremantle skipper Matthew Pavlich looks likely to be a shock omission from tonight's All-Australian team, after telling a media conference today that he was not invited to the awards ceremony in Melbourne.

Pavlich, whose 69 goals in 2012 included 62 in the home-and-away season, was considered to be a near certainty to earn a seventh All-Australian jumper - with some judges calling for him to be named captain of the squad.

But at a press conference today, Pavlich let slip that he had not received an invite to the All-Australian presentation.

Teammate Luke McPharlin is already on his way to Melbourne for the ceremony.
