Another award I don't rate
It is a good award if coaches don't show obvious bias towards their players, and to be fair most coaches don't when picking players for points, but if a few coaches do it then it completely tarnishes the entire award.

Another award I don't rate
3 score involvements
Warner been non existant for the last few months after his bye. Except for this game of course, Gulden been far better. Nick slowing down, tired from carrying these bunch of role player fill in spuds with no help.But the talk early on in this thread is that hes the best player in comp and could be the GOAT??
Both those Sydney boys are in front of him at the moment.

Not sure anyone has said he's the current no.1 player in the game.
He has the potential to become an all time great but it's nonsensical to have him rated at the top. Bontempelli has been phenomenal for a number of seasons.
Toby Greene, Petracca and quite few others been brilliant for a while.
He has been down recent weeks and again tonight. Just going. Still putting the whole of the last 2 seasons together he is arguably as good as anyone in that time. Obviously not the best player in the game as he hasn't been there long enough but best or near best over the 2 seasons after his debut is fairly stunning.Not sure anyone has said he's the current no.1 player in the game.

Indeed there are.Mate, theres literally hundreds of people saying that.
Why does Goatie seem to go missing every time the pressure ramps up and contested ball beasts start firing? Just seems to skirt around waiting for ball to come to him while Heeney, Cripps, Bontempelli etc go to work and get the thing ??Indeed there are.
Time for those of you who aren't to get a grip on reality.
Go watch the last 5 minutes of the 2023 Grand Final and come back to me.Why does Goatie seem to go missing every time the pressure ramps up and contested ball beasts start firing? Just seems to skirt around waiting for ball to come to him while Heeney, Cripps, Bontempelli etc go to work and get the thing ??
Im talking about this year? Timid Nicky was nowhere to be seen last night while Heeney and Warner took over the game and won it for their teamGo watch the last 5 minutes of the 2023 Grand Final and come back to me.
It took both Heeney AND Warner to outdo GOATcos? Not to mention Jordan?Im talking about this year? Timid Nicky was nowhere to be seen last night while Heeney and Warner took over the game and won it for their team
I thought Goatie was meant to be the best player in the comp? Those 3 should have been no match for the mighty contest shirkerIt took both Heeney AND Warner to outdo GOATcos? Not to mention Jordan?

I never said they were.You do know that Heeney and Warner were not actually on Daicos don't you?
I never said they were.
Comprehension is important.
You do realise we have won 18 games by under 6 points since Macraes start to his tenure.Why does Goatie seem to go missing every time the pressure ramps up and contested ball beasts start firing? Just seems to skirt around waiting for ball to come to him while Heeney, Cripps, Bontempelli etc go to work and get the thing ??
There was no implication there at all, hence the reason I used the term 'outdo', as you have just used.The way you said it implied they were. Also both Warner and Heeney did outdo Daicos, in fact they outdid him very very comfortably. Daicos was not even in the top 5 for Collingwood players.

Oh my.
And there's absolutely no arguments from me on your comment.
Third year player, after trying to carry his team all year (being his team's best player in two thirds of all games played), has a game where he's not in his team's best 5 players whilst copping his regular heavy tag. (Though I notice he's listed 4th in Collingwood's best on AFL.COM.AU).
Ablett Jr is the same height. Not even close. Gary’s best was freakish, best ever. All whilst having the opposition’s best and second best trying to tag or push him around.
Looking just at the last two years, he is up there but there is one man that stands alone at the top. His name is the Bont.He has been down recent weeks and again tonight. Just going. Still putting the whole of the last 2 seasons together he is arguably as good as anyone in that time. Obviously not the best player in the game as he hasn't been there long enough but best or near best over the 2 seasons after his debut is fairly stunning.
