[ghostdog]

Is he favourite for the Crichton right now? Zach getting tagged might have an impact.

Got 5 coaches votes v Cats

And zero votes in our MVP… by default… as there’s no thread.

Went to put in all the coaches vote but couldn't find it

I wondered what happened to it

Anyone can start the thread. If it's not there, feel free to start it.

Well deserved for Jye - but how tf did Martin get a vote?

Fair

I love him, just thought he was well below his best

 

[bommer16]

Liberty Player of the Month for rounds 13-16.

Averaged 26 disposals last four rounds including a season high 32 against Geelong last week.

Congrats Jye.

4 Year Deal for Jye

 

[ScrappyCoCo]

Most would have Duzza as our most improved this year but Caldwell making a hell of a run and gone up a level.

 

[BomberManU]

Gets elbowed in the face, while on the ground, bit of push and shove, then tells the Coll player he's going to slot the goal...and does.

 

[Petrify]

He's what we've needed for so long. Great recruiting

[naraku]

He is becoming monstrous and we love it!

 

[Loonerty]

He's been immense this year.

 

[JT_the_Man]

So he plays footy pretty good.

 

[bommer16]

Football is swell with Caldwell

 

[TheFrenchCut]

The best mid on our list behind only Merrett.

 

[Blind Turn]

As much as our fitness department gets smashed at times on here, this guy is a big tick (touching wood). I really thought his hamstrings might deny him his potential but they’ve put the work into him and it’s paying off in droves now.

 

[ghostdog]

Works so hard. He's a relentless beast at every contest.

 

[andleanback]

It’s taken injury again for him to finally get a chance to play full time mid for a long period. Just shows we’ve wasted him at half forward for 2-3 years

 

[Howard Moon]

I love how much he wears his heart on his sleeve, it oozes out of him how much he cares, when something bad happens he screams in anger, when he messes up he smashes the ground with his fist, if we lose he has his head in his hands , when he kicks a big goal the twin cobras come out, when he's happy the tounge comes out like a dog... We've had so many vanilla robots come through who we figured just punched their time card and collected a pay cheque each week, can see outwardly with this guy it's more

 

[bommer16]

Another 30 disposals last night
8 clearances

That’s not entirely true, it’s taken him 2-3 years to build the tank for a perm midfield gig. He had a very low base off those hamstring issues.
