If Heeney?

[Snarls Barkley]

Will he still win the Gary Ayres award? I think he was 7 points ahead of second?

I'd say no.

GF is weighted 1.5x now so Neale only needs a normal 5 which I think he gets, could be close though

 

[Snarls Barkley]

A really awesome season from Heeney

A massive shame it ended the way it did. 14 touches and 5 clangers. Probably his worst game since the last GF. I'm sure he'll bounce back but that's got to hurt

Ashcroft, Ah Chee, Lohmann were better imo. If Neale is 4th I think that’s enough

I think that's fair. That's relying on both coached seeing it that way though and it's almost a tie between the four of them

Id vote in the same order as you though

McRae would give him the 4 meaning he only needs 1 from Longmire to win it.

I really don’t know if you meant McRae or not tbh lol

If Neale gets the Gary Ayres he’s better than Bont and Pendles imo

If Heeney is able to produce another big performance, where are we rating this finals series?

I would say it would have to be close to the best?

He turned to water in the Grand Final.

I did
He gave Naicos far more votes than the other coach many times throughout the year.

Yeah but Fagan is the coach mate haha

Thats why I said "would"....

I think rating him higher is fair, there isn't much he hasn't done now, but it shouldn't be determined on how Fagan and Longmire vote today

Where you rate them now should be the same you rate them 48 hours from now

Haha yeah soz I cooked your joke

Idk playing well in a finals series/GF is a pretty convincing tipping point. Have to change your mind at some point.

My point is the game has already been played. Whether Neale gets 15 votes from the coaches or 6 votes from the coaches shouldnt affect his rating

He was awesome today and all finals series

A lot of negative attention will be on Heeney but geez, Josh Dunkley has done that kinda role to pretty much all the star inside mids at some point. He’s a genuine star but he sacrifices his game often. He didn’t let Heeney have any space

 

[Gavin Excell]

Feel sorry for the bugger
Looked distraught

Yes even Cripps has been Dunkley'd before. Guy is underrated at what he does

wow this comment hasn't aged well....

 

[Daka]

Heeney has gone down in my eyes, I thought he was the best players this year but he has had some rubbish Grand Finals.

Gulden too
Grundy isn't up to it
Was beaten by Fort

Will be a close finish

His first final was Dusty-like, but only Dusty can be the true king of finals.

Not only did Dusty win 3 Norm Smith medals but he also won 3 Gary Ayres awards (Player of the Finals).

In the running for the Leon Davis medal today.
