    Rivers I thought was a sneaky chance for top 5. Love May, I hope they put his speech up on the website un-edited. Oliver I thought may have snuck in for top 10 but missed too much footy. Will be interested to see the whole votes.

    Did I mention I love May?

    Not really. He missed 10 games. Except Gawn, the rest of the top 10 barley missed a game. 
    Because every player gets a vote for every game, missing many games makes it impossible to do well. 

    do they give votes for finals? if so that explains it. of his 15 games he was easily clear on disposals

    not sure if the award should reward durability that much. but anyway well done all

    Always has.  Which is the sole reason Robbie Flower only won one B&F.

    Instead of about 10.

    Not going to lie. I wanted Jack to win. Loved how McVee finished top 10. 

    Kozzie bit surprised with his position.

    Not sure if it was a pointed message about culture but I think everyone in the room should have got the message.

    Steven may. Ha ha. Wait until the pies fans find out what he said. Sadly they're having the last laugh

    I think May came fifth because of his two amazing finals performances.

    Goody made a note to say he played the best finals game he’s ever seen. Obviously in relation to his game against Carlton which was flawless. 
    High praise from a coach who has seen Trac in a grand final.

    if Flower only won one i reckon the format might need to change the format. Is N Jones 3 times a better player?

    A clear winner in Trac

    A clear second in Vines

    then 30 points separating 3rd and 10th

    and where is Hunter?!

    I do love how BnFs value defenders though.

    But is someone really the best player for the season when they miss almost half the year? Where should the line be drawn? Get 60 possessions and kick 10 in round 1 then miss the rest of the season with injury? Maybe a team's best player on paper, but not the best player for the team over that season I'd suggest.

    That said, regarding the Flower winning only 1 matter I'd agree there's scope maybe to tweak the scoring system.

    At 40 votes per game maximum (4 coaches each give a rating for each player out of 10), there was only one game between 3rd and 10th this year. Unbelievably even season.

    That’s because you genuinely don’t know what role he’s being asked to play every week. 
    Half this site thinks ANB is a liability but he came 6th. Go figure. 

    The one set of awards you can’t complain about is the B&F. Our coaches give very specific votes for very nuanced things that we have no idea about.

    I think Pickett's high rating from the coaches should be a good indication that he is under instructions to fly for marks in the forward line.

     

    It's a defensive tactic designed to bring the ball to ground and prevent an intercept mark, and he does it consistently well, rarely giving away a free kick.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
