Demonland Player of the Year - Round 11

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,627]

Circumstances prevented me seeing or listening to the game (except for a very positive review of the contest at half time on 774 (sorry - I'm a hyphen after all!)), so I'm not voting as such, but I'm struck by the relative positivity of this thread - notable absence of the usual "daylight the rest" after the first one or two vote-getters, for example - compared with the Postmatch Discussion. Is 'the big picture' a little better, then, than the immediate distress?

Toump shades it for BOG honours in what was easily his best game for the club. Jones had 12 inside 50s as opposed to Bernie's 4 and was a bit more precise with his ball use.

Am I the only one who thought some of Gawn's hit outs were really valuable.. Yes he needs to hold more marks, but he is already better than Jamar and if those marks start sticking he is a very valuable player.

[FireOath 290]

You're not the only one, we have been winning alot more clearances with Gawn, Vince and Jones.

Jones misses out because in my opinion he wasn't as switched on as he should have been at the end with the set up

Neither were the other six you mentioned.

Totally, our midfield is made to look so much better with Gawn there. Would love to see hitouts to advantage stats since he's come in.

I said this in another thread. He does need to hold those marks. Aside from Gawn's tapping he has been doing something that Jamar has not done since his AA year - that is getting involved. Jamar for the past seasons has taken centre bounces and boundary throw in's ruckwork and then been completely absent for the balance of the game. Gawn gets busy and involved.

Bernie voted BOG by both coaches!
10 Bernie Vince (Melb)
8 Leigh Montagna (StK)
5 Jesse Hogan (Melb)
5 Nick Riewoldt (StK)
2 Sean Dempster (StK

Bernie is 2 players in 1: Can close down champs while getting fair bit of the ball and a few goals.

Looks like Jesse got 2 and 3.

Happy for both getting this recognition.

Pretty well spot on BBO and I was there. Only change for me might be Viney in for perhaps for Gawn.
