Demonland Player of the Year - Round 2

Featured Replies

 

6. Kennedy

3. N. Jones

1. Watts (for ten minutes)

How is Jetta not getting any mention here? For mine, there were only three players who put in the required effort all day: Kennedy, Jetta and Garlett. Garlett didn't get much of it but at least tried to get involved. Kent and Harmes, for example, didn't even look like they wanted to get a disposal.

So I'd have:

6 - Kennedy

5 - Jetta

4 - Garlett

3 - N Jones

2 - Tyson

1 - Vince

N Jones, Tyson and Vince don't actually deserve praise but they're the three least-bad players of the remaining 19.

Surely this is a case of different standards for different players.

Vince had 28 disposals at 78%, 7 marks, 4 tackles. Jones had 29 disposals, 8 clearances and 7 inside 50s. Neither were polished but they busted a gut.

Of Jetta's 12 disposal game I mostly remember the needless arm across the shoulder when the ball was going through for a point which cost a goal.

Temper the love. He didn't have a standout day.

This may be a stupid question, but how does the scoring work? I see Kennedy has 29, yet he received way more than 29 votes in this thread alone.

May as well give it to him now, don't see anyone else putting in an effort like he does.

 


Certainly one positive after the loss is the continuous rise of Ben Ken. He has pace, good skills, kicks goals and can seriously play. Has a bit of mongrel about him as well. Awesome recruit so far.

I think he takes a random sampling of the posts each week.  This would give a balance of fairness and not requiring too much maths and effort to make work.  It would probably be better to average the scores across all votes posted, but that's going to wind up being a massive pain to do every week. 

I know the voting has closed but for me...

6 Ben Kennedy

3 Bernie Vince

1 Matt Jones, Nathan Jones, Gartlett

no more positives

-3 Hogan

-4 Tom Mcdonald ... he was smashed by Daniher (again)

  • PREVIEW: Brisbnae

    They really had me fooled when I picked them with great confidence to beat the Bombers at Gather Round last week. I should have recognised that nothing is more quintessentially Melbourne than defeating the undefeated early premiership favourite one week and losing to a winless cellar dweller on its way to establishing a record losing streak the next.
