Giving anyone votes in this game only devalues the votes EARNED by others in REAL games.

Good that Jones is back. But I fear he will be caught holding the ball. He likes to force the stoppage by holding it in and under, and he doesn't try to dispose of it. The rule has a new interpretation and if he doesn't adapt, he'll give away 2 or 3 free kicks.

Someone gave Picket a vote for a six possession game(at 66% efficiency). I like him too, but are we voting for best, or favourites?

Easy to see favourites here. Kozzy versus Melksham. Too much praise for the first - yes, he's exciting to watch and he kicked two goals. But only 6 disposals at 66% efficiency. He's got talent all right and one day he might rival Farmer. But not now. Not enough recognition of the latter. Melksham played his role. Nine disposals at 88% efficiency and five marks and a goal. Credit where it's due.

Sorry gs77, "with the Rivers's, Jordons, ANBs, Sparrows, Bedford's, etc. also in the mix." How many Rivers, Sparrows and Bedfords do we have?

Yes, they'd have a hard time repeating those goals. While they were doing that, we missed our opportunities. Could have been a very different score line if luck had gone the other way.

O.Mac - Proved doubters wrong Pickett - Many silly actions

Oliver dishes off to a player under pressure, time and again. If by chance the AFL introduces "team prior opportunity" as has been discussed on On The Couch, many of Oliver's disposals would result in a free kick to the opposition.

Thanks Swooper. You're right about Phillips beating Grundy.

Gawn is doing ok, but Brody is now well ahead of him.

Trade the entire coaching panel for Clarkson.

I'm over him. We thought we had a first class midfielder but the truth is that he is miles behind the best in the AFL. Cripps, Dangerfield, O'Neil, Fyfe, Martin, Mitchell, Pendlebury, Merritt, Cotchin, Rowell, Boak, Cunnington, Kelly... it seems like most clubs have a better midfield than Oliver. Time to shake him up or move him on.

Cringe-worthy as it is, "Learnings" has been in common use for at least two decades in Asia.

I might have watched a different game. Kozzy was all buzz with no impact. Smith was ok. Rivers looked lost. Melksham looked disinterested and has forgotten how to chase. Hannan was ok considering how long it is since he has played at this level. And despite the love for Lockhart on this forum, he simply isn't ready.

Bing181, They dropped Jackson for Essenon.

I agree with GM11.

That's also a problem. Do you think that tongue in cheek or casual prejudice is ok? Joking or otherwise, swearing about an English man because he isn't a Dees supporter, dismissing him because you think he's only been in the country for 5 minutes. Seriously? It's 2020 and if you haven't already noticed... NOT COOL, MCQUEEN. Demonland, let's ban that sort of post.

Why does where he is from have anything to do with it? This sort of bias has to be called out. Not cool, McQueen.

I'd give all 21 votes to Viney if that were permissible. Otherwise, 6. Viney 5. May 4. Oscar 3. Langdon 2. Lever 1. Petracca

Hard to distinguish between the dark and light blues. And the videos show that several kicks went to opposition players. Maybe the two are connected. Or maybe we are still unable to find a teammate.
