Edge of your seat stuff.
Think you've done a great job David. Stick with the 3-2-1 format....reckon anyone who puts in the votes wrongly just gets ignored. The majority of people give their votes proparly, so just take those into account.
Congrats to Dane Swan. Really, thinking about it, thats a huge achievement because the votes of Collingwood supporters right across Australia have been tallied for each round.

I think it also reflects on how the B&F will go as well...

Agreed. Lets do a poll. Personally I'd prefer a top 5 instead of 3.
Anyways well done Swanny, a well deserved winner.
Shame we can't organize some kind of prize, like a dinner for 2 or something.

Well done Swanny, well done David.
As for a voting re-jig..how about a total of, let's say, 30 votes can be awarded each week with a maximum of 5 individual vote getters.
ie:
Swan 8
Davis 7
Cloke 6
Medhurst 5
Didak 4
Just a thought.

I gave the players a vote each, within reason. Where people went 3,2,2,1, I gave 3 votes to BOG, 2 votes each to the tied players, and then no further votes after that - after all, the point is to recognise the 3 best players of the match, and that's how I attempted to interpret each poster's votes.

what about rating each player that played a score from 10. might be tougher to do to go through each one but could be done in a spreadsheet easily. |
Nice idea, but impossible in practise. I do something like that now and then in the post-match thread, but it's simply too time-consuming for many people to bother... thus, we're going to have far less people contributing, and you could even conceivably have weeks where we're going off the votes of one poster, or even none.
I don't have any problem with a top 5 though, it would be nice to see a few more players recognised for good performances.
As for a medal, I've thought in the past that a small engraved trophy (you can buy them from stores for next to nothing) presented by Joffa and/or a few others, as a note of appreciation from the entire board, wouldn't go astray. I'm sure the club wouldn't mind the fans getting an opportunity to show their gratitude in a small way like this.

Great winner & should be our poll leader in the Brownlow too.
Yet somehow, not AA material..... Not even top 40... Shame on you AFL.
Is he our next captain? Shown plenty of leading by example this year after a rocky start to his career. |
