MVP Didaka Memorial Medal: Rd 5 v North Melbourne (VOTE NOW)

[Bay Pie]

I can't remember a week that we have had so many players deserving of a top 5 spot. I'd think there'll be a fair variance among posters assessments.

5 Sidebottom - yep lots of uncontested, outside stuff but he was fantastic for our transition
4 Lumumba - run and carry from the back half was great
3 Cloke - beast is back. Should have kicked at least 6, but was very good when game on the line.
2 Maxwell - career best form? He is marshalling the troops very well
1 Fasolo - quality user off halfback. Great move Bucks.

Beams, Swanny, Frosty, Elliott & Pendles all could have got a gig. I'm loving what White is bringing to our team. Man that dudes quick for a big guy. Oh and chalk another one up for Caff. NDS had 7 kicks in the 1st half of which only one was effective.

1. The Sack! - He just epitomised the effort from everyone today. Pressure acts galore

Seriously could give votes to 15 blokes but anyhow.

5- Fasolo - Ball use superb.

4- Cloke- First half was the beast we know and gave that flog Thompson a touch up. Should've kicked 7.

3- Sidebottom- The wing suits him the best. Was everywhere.

2- Frost- Some great marking and was rock solid in his defensive work.

1- Swan- Just kept running all day and came off the ground a number of times absolutely buggered which shows his work rate was extremely high.

Lumumba, Pendles, Beams, Elliot, Maxwell, Keefe were all great.

5. Sidebottom - owned the game when it was up for grabs in the first half. Started on Wells and took him to pieces, made him pay for his lack of accountability. Used the ball superbly.
4. Cloke - again mainly for taking the game by the scruff of the neck in the first half and blowing North away. Faded in the second half and missed the usual couple of gimmes but his marking and attack on the ball were exemplary.
3. Swan - back to being everywhere at the right time. Ran his tattoos off for the team.
2. Fasolo - probably his best game for us. Mostly used the ball brilliantly and played his role extremely well.
1. Frost - dominated the contests inside North's 50 all day. Marking and spoiling were fantastic, and used the ball very well. I genuinely thought this guy wouldn't make it at the top level, but he's making me eat my words. Long may it continue, I love being wrong like that.

Genuinely could've raffled the last couple of spots. This was the definitive team performance, as we won almost every position on the ground.

Maxy, Beams, Pendles, Lumumba and Elliott all deserved votes but couldn't fit them in.
