Makes a few people who posted to drop him on the changes thread look a bit silly to say the least...

Great first game back.

The split looks like:

• 5/5 McDonald
• 4/3 Mills
• 4/2 Oliver
• 3/0 May
• 2/0 Harmes
• 1/0 Hickey
• 1/0 Salem

So both coaches gave votes to McDonald, Mills and Oliver.

No agreement on May, Harmes, HIckey and Salem.

Maxy is due for an absolute blinder. 

[The heart beats true 18,123]

If we drop Tom McDonald and James Harmes surely that makes it easier for Gawn, Oliver and Salem to get more votes, and win the award.

Was  hard on Sat eve  with the ball being so slippery. He dropped a few he'd normally swallow whole.

Almost as silly as those you suggested Mcdonald plays back.

[Demonstone 22,534]

I'm a bit surprised that Luke Parker didn't get a vote.  He seemed to bob up with annoying frequency, particularly around those much discussed centre clearances.

edit:  I just checked his stats to see if it was just my imagination, and he had 32 disposals, 4 marks, 5 tackles and 7 clearances.  That's a good day's work by any standard.

Great first game back.

It really was a good return for Harmes; he battled hard and kept working away at it all despite a loss of form and a few errors. His use of the body in close and in screens was terrific. His ball usage was sloppy at times and at other times, effective. His ability to run and link is a real asset to our game, and it will improve as he, too, adjusts to the new footballing mantras about him.

[Fritta and Turner 4,415]

Yes, good first game back for Harmes, but he does owe the club.

[DubDee 25,869]

You really have to hand it to him. Amazing mental toughness and application to get his body and game back to 2018 level. Put up for trade last year too.

No-one saw this coming.  As his confidence grows, he could really dominate

Him and Fritsch on track to get 40-50 goals this season

Indeed. Dont kniw what game they watched.

He made a few poor decisions but for tge most part played a ripper even outside the fact it was his first gamr for the season.

Will be even better with a few games in him.

So many players are reaching their true potential because of our new winning culture.

And Anb.

And Lever

And Hunt.

And Rivers.

Sorry started with Fritta and got carried away but agreed on the big guy.

 

[chook fowler 19,459]

Amazing that 2 of our forwards have gained 10/10 in consecutive weeks and 4 players in the top 12. Shows that there is not an over reliance on 1 or 2 stars.
