Jeremy Cameron is in form too. Would be right up there with Buddy in the coleman if not for his stupid brain fade in NAB cup

Who's giving those ratings? Red Symons?

Just for the sake of clarity, in the official reports, he's been named best on ground against West Coast, second best against Adelaide, third best against Gold Coast, fourth best against Port Adelaide and fifth best against Essendon and Brisbane. In other words, he's been in Geelong's best five players for the past six weeks (all comprehensive victories) and in Geelong's best three in the past three weeks. And someone's giving him fives and sixes for these performances?

I've gone over the ratings and his key stats for those games, SEN does not very often give 9s the scores he got were reasonable considering his role.
He might not though have any competition for the HFF atm anyway if Zorko is on the other and Franklin is not being suggested as HFF

Int Tippett, Shiel, Ziebell, Bontempelli

Luke Parker is not a forward pocket

 

[Wild Bill]

Goldy up to 3rd in the Coaches votes. Like Ziebell has polled in 6 of the 8 games. 22 touches on the weekend was a great return.

 

[TheWhiteRhino]

Not sure how you have Ward & Parker over Mitchell, Parkers last 2 weeks have been putrid.
I'm sure Parker will bounce back this week though.
Grundy? Seriously? Who has he played on and beaten?

Parker had 30 touches against the Dons... may not have dominated but was still good.

 

[Underdog]

Goldstein seems to get votes just for showing up. Interestingly, this week he got 3 from one coach and none from the other.

It doesn't matter just chuck mids anywhere

Where did you see that?

Goldy had 22 touches 35 hitouts and got 3 votes
Nic Nat had 12 touches and 33 hitouts and got 4 votes.

Who needs to just show up to get votes??

 

[Suma Magic]

A quick attempt, I've just listed anyone else I could think of in the unlucky category.

Aim was to have a semi-realistic team, meaning 7 defenders.

I've probably missed a few.

You have named JZ on the bench and in the close list. Davis and Laird will be lucky to hold their spot if out for a few more weeks.

Shuey is now equal with ziebell on votes. Thoughts?

He can stay in the team.

Defenders are tough, no one jumping out at me from what I've seen. Probably only seen a third of games though.

 

[Wild Bill]

Terrible footballer - he must be a Simpson favourite

Not 1 vote away from the safety of WA.

Actually he usually gets robbed of votes should have gotten 10 against Richmond which would put him in the top ten. Ziebell hasn't gotten a single vote in a loss, awful player.

Wicked stats mate

Did you watch the game? He was massive against us and definitely deserved votes.

Naitanui only got 4?
Nuts.

Wait, wait...Parker's last two weeks have been putrid? Check Mitchell's past month:

R5 v Adelaide: 31 disposals, only 7 contested, went at a mere 67% efficiency including 7 clangers.
R6 v GWS: 26 disposals, ZERO tackles, 7 contested, going at only 65%.
R7 v Richmond: Did not show up
R8 v Freo: 26 disposals, better at 80% but 5 clangers and 5 frees against.

 

[pieman123]

Not sure why Ziebell is in so many teams, averages 23 disposals a game and is going at 60% efficiency which is quite poor.

It's the Rioli/Nic Nat affect. Ignore stats and watch what they do.

except those two players are very damaging, the clanger master isn't.

You may want to stay away from the over rated thread.

Coaches are telling the world something else....

 

[Milanista28]

If you went on stats Zach Merrett would be AA captain. Best stats in the comp.

In the squad at the moment for mine, Pretty amazing season though for a 20 year old in the current circumstances.

He just doesn't compare to the true elite like shuey.

Well played. You nearly had me biting at that.
