DEMONLAND PLAYER OF THE YEAR - ROUND 1, 2015

[mo64 5,853]

blatant anti-watts discrimination!

Ablett was underdone, and he had a fair impact anyway, having a hand in about 5 goals! None of Viney's possessions did much damage! Overrated performance!

Do you realise that Garland was Ablett's direct opponent when he rested up forward?

[DemonDog 0]

6 - Tommy Mac

5 - Jack Watts

4 - Nathan Jones

3 - Jeff Garlett

2 - Howe

1 - H.L

well then why is Viney getting all the credit for 'stopping' him!?

Coaches votes:

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2015-04-07/coaches-votes-round-one

Because of the votes given in this game you can work out exactly how the coaches actually voted:

Coach 1 Coach 2

5 McDonald McDonald

4 Garlett (or Howe) Howe (or Garlett)

3 Watts Watts

2 Viney (or jones) Jones (or Viney)

1 Prestia (or Rischatelli) Rischatelli (or Prestia)

What is interesting is our voting is similar whilst many so called experts ignored McDonald.

So who did Roos vote for?

My best guess:

5. McDonald

4 Howe

3 Watts

2 Viney

1 Prestia

Any other thoughts?

[DeeSpencer 25,436]

I get the feeling both Roosy and Eade love their half back flankers and would be impressed by Howe but at the same time Garlett gave us something we didn't have last year and hurt the Suns.

Have to think Roosy recognises Viney's game and who knows which GC player they went for. I liked Rischitelli's game for the goals, but Prestia played a very solid midfield game as well.

[Demonated 252]

McDonald

Jones

Watts

Garland

Garlett

Viney

Best game I have ever seen McDonald play I reckon. Looked very confident under the long ball and provided rebound. Viney could have been higher but I think part of the reason Ablett was nullified so well was because he isn't quite ready to be playing again.

Cheer up Curry, go and watch the game again and focus on the work that Viney did, your making comments that don't really have much to back them up and just to stir people up. Viney was in out best just like a Watts was.

[Akum 2,660]

Just noticed that the one who tapped the ball between three Suns back to Jeffy for that brilliant goal from the centre bounce was ...

... none other than Jack Watts.

Watts played better than Viney

The coaches seem to agree with me

[dee-tox 4,835]

Thought that Saad looked like a handy addition to the Suns. Any idea who he was playing on?

Fanfooty says he was on Brayshaw but I thought I saw him following JKH around

So you are after Viney? Do you hate players that can tackle? or is it because he hasn't played enough games? Drop him for McKenzie as McKenzie has played more games that will surely get us a win because your theory is brilliant.

Not at all. Watts was clearly better is all I've said. Are you disputing that point or just being a DH sniper again

I don't think there was much difference between both of them they were both great. I gave Viney 5 votes and Watts 4.

Congrats to T.Mac, Watts, Viney and Jamar for making the team of the round.

For the few that had a go at Jamar for not getting the ball he was judged as the best ruckman for the round so he must be doing something right.

Garlett very unlucky not to make the team.

[ManDee 7,124]

NB: No Tommy Mac on the masthead. Must have been an oversight.

[WERRIDEE 5,435]

Off the topic should Jamar replace Grimes on the banner?

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

I feel whoever gets "1" vote is going to be pretty hard done by.

Look at Newts, poor kid gets nothing from nobody.
