I brought it up in here as soon as he said it. Truly mind boggling that he’d pull Dennis Pagan’s name out of the recesses of his bizarre, clearly demented, mind.
Harris Andrews is probably Brisbane’s most critical player. He gives them so much confidence in the way he positions himself and rarely gets outmarked in contests which allows more daring play. How he missed AA selection is a footy travesty and it will burn a nasty shadow on the league when he...
Warner; 9 disposals
Gulden; 8 Disposals
Heeney; 12 disposals (for 12 SC points!)
Papley; 3 disposals
Amartey & McDonald; no score
They are no chance when you see those stats.
If that’s how advantage is adjudicated then it’s wrong. The play had gone forward naturally to a teammate without a stop in the flow of play. He was about 20m up the field. I’m not saying you’re wrong I’m saying here that the interpretation is wrong.
Found the most exquisite doily at a garage sale once that is kept in box never to be seen. That’s what Dollies are for, aren’t they?
Mark Williams and Ty Zanuck were doilies.
Was just thinking this. He may not be a long term answer but his skill set in our forward half could be helpful. I’m a bit sketchy on his defensive pressure in the forward 50 but I seem to recall it being pretty decent.
Weitering played in the same side as Cripps and might’ve taken votes off him (you’d think, right?). He was AA full back yet got ZERO votes. The award is officially a joke.
When everyone was crying about how good Massimo is now I made a point of highlighting the recency bias pervading the AFL industry. Granted, Marto wasn’t an out-and-out wingman this year but as a point of comparison he had a vastly superior season to Mass. He was easily the better player of the...
Not a bad idea. They definitely need to dial down the hype and prestige surrounding such a flawed award. Broadening the focus might be the best way to do that so that it’s not all zeroing in on one accolade.
Not a single person in the footballing world would think Cripps has been THIS good this year. I don’t begrudge him the award but the voting here highlights the blinkers that the umps wear. Joke of an award. Seriously. WTF! Averaging 2 votes per game. Not even remotely that much of a standout.
If that free against Stewart is the standard to which contact in our game will be adjudicated now and in the future I am done with this game for good. Atrocious umpiring!
