VOTES: Rd 03 vs Essendon

May's total of 13 is interesting given both Naughton and Wright were the opposition best player and he was the direct opponent for most of the game against both.  Both recorded healthy goal tallies too.

I think Max’s game has been underrated - in addition to his hitouts, 22 possessions 12 of which were contested, 6 clearances @ 80% efficiency. Not a bad nights work.

Jake Bowey has 17 & 13, so he really has 30!

Couldn’t resist.

13 is what he was on last week.

Agree.  The coaches votes will be interesting this week.  Gawn's second half was excellent.

I was tossing up between Gawn and Weideman for my final vote. Gawn's unlucky - I might have been swayed by the idea that Weideman needed an encouragement award. 

To be fair to Weideman, though, he really made a difference in the forward line by being a consistent threat. Let himself down with his kicking, but seeing as his history has shown he has struggled more to take marks than convert marks into goals, it was a pleasure to see the way he played.

6  - Gus: he’s criminally underrated by some on here

5 - Clarry: gun, don’t need to say more

4 - Langon: on top of his incredible goal, a typically tireless game

3 - Weid: 4 goals on return with the pressure on, probably should’ve had at least one more with accurate kicking but so happy for him

2 - Bowser: how is such a young player doing such cool things under pressure?

1 - Harmes: not a complete game from him but kicked important goals and had some big moments
