COACHES VOTES: Round 21, 2022

[At the break of Gawn 4,460]

10 Max Gawn (MELB)

8 Jordan De Goey (COLL)

5 Jamie Elliott (COLL)

3 Christian Petracca (MELB)

2 Christian Salem (MELB)

1 Nick Daicos (COLL)

1 Brayden Maynard (COLL)

Thats bizarre that Oliver couldn’t poll a single vote.

[Swooper1987 3,322]

No surprise at all given that Oliver was supposed to be on De Goey for much of the night.  Gawn was outstanding and I'm pleased both coaches acknowledged it if some here couldn't.

I had Gawn and Petracca ahead of him but thought he might get some. I didn’t realise he was supposed to be on De Goey so that explains a fair bit.

[Wells 11 5,381]

Strange night for Max. I had him BOG also, but his kicking for goal cost us the game. 

[poita 3,897]

How many of Oliver's possessions benefited the team? He is without doubt a wonderful player, but most of his disposals on Friday were pretty ordinary. In particular, his reluctance to kick started a number of pointless chains of handpasses that ultimately resulted in us losing possession. 

[Gawndy the Great 9,011]

Whats a bet Oliver will get 3 brownlow votes 😀

[At the break of Gawn 4,460]

I’ll also add that I’m annoyed Elliott got votes. 2 of his goals came from incorrect HTB decisions. It was only the Hibberd one which was clear. Jordan and Viney had basically no prior.

[deelusions from afar 1,803]

I think this is great - if we play Collingwood in finals he will take responsibility for De Goey (unless Harmes does) and will get it done.  Just like he did with Bont in the granny last year.

Totally agree Was a flip back to the old Clarry wasting the ball and mucking around almost lairrising in fact! 

[Billy 2,524]

Give us a spell, 42 & 24 contested doesn’t deserve any votes & DeGoey got 8!!!!

Geez you posters jump off quickly 

Seriously

[DeeZone 9,705]

I had Max, Tracc & Clayton ahead of DeGoey but he did look pretty flash when he cleared a number of centre clearance’s and ran out unopposed, mind you his kicking was poor on occasions.!!!! Clayton put his body on the line and had no problem winning the ball but didn’t get a lot of run away from stoppages and the ball get turned over in meaningless handball chains.😢😪.

Thought Oliver was one of the very few who maintained the same effort all night.

So if we had won by 2 goals Oliver would have got 8 votes and De Goey would have got zero because he was supposed to be on Oliver?

I didnt see it that way at all, Greg Baum of the AGE a thoroughly astute footy scribe gave Clarry 8 Votes BOG. 42 POSESSIONS Cmon give ne a break. ELLIOT SALEM, LUCKY. IMO Clarry is still a better player than Tracc

I Definately didn't have Salem in the top 5 players on the ground

[Earl Hood 6,082]

That Johnson kid was stiff, those 4 goals all had high degrees of difficulty and kept them in it.

Absolutely he did, and you can never question his effort or will to win.

But we felt on the night he wasn't hurting the oppositon. Lots of big kicks  without specfic targetting, as opposed to many Pies inbound kicks to targets.

Elliot beat us last time, and did it again on Friday.

He's a great player kicked 3 or 4 on Jetta in that dismal loss in 2017

How hot were they on the 'instant tackle no prior' HTB!

That’s a really poor post, the guy worked his backside off & was probably the only player that had a great second half, l saw no larrising  at all

As for Gawn getting 10 votes, missed 3 easy goals and as much as he was good he cost us the 4 points

I guess Goodwin didn’t give  Oliver votes because he knows a lot of his touches were wasted.

The Age gave Oliver 8 and DeGoey 8.

[Adam The God 30,136]

Sorry, anyone that gets 14 clearances surely deserves at least 1 coaches vote, but clearly neither coach rated his game.

And 4 on QB this year.  Its why I think Ed is on the money - we just need a stopper on a few  - we surely know the issue by now with the Pies.

A great news Grundy is out for the year. It means we have Mason Cox in for the finals, a boon to any Pies Oppo.

[bing181 9,196]

Good to see Salem amongst the votes. Still not back to his regular best, but was his best game since returning from injury.
