And Carlton manipulated the B&F results so that the guy they are yet to sign but want to sign long term finished 1st, massively increasing his worth! To do what for the salary cap, and the coaches and coaching assistants planned this from Rnd 1, what insight, what planning and foresight!
Yet they didn't see the sack coming! :o
Sort of like the Psychic having to cancel the show due to unforeseen circumstances!
I know of a club where a big name polled the most votes in the final game of the year in a game which he struggled bumping his way into 10th to trigger his 50k bonus. Whispers all around the room , the player was embarrassed especially as he told all his team mates before of his trigger.

So it begs the question...
Which players out of the top 10 should have been there....and before answering, just check how many games they played?
If you don't play there's a fair chance you won't attract too many votes.
Jack Silvagni played only 15 games
The rest of the top 10 played at least 19
Had Jack played those extra four games there's a fair chance he would have jumped up a spot or two.

Deservedly so !
And the sackings will continue until Plowman doesn’t get a vote…!

Do we give votes for participation?
Betts finished 9th and was delisted. Pretty obvious what happened there.

What happened?
Did you expect him to go on...I didn't.
He played 19 games.
Many of those he was hardly sighted.
But he obviously performed a role that the coaches were happy with...whether that was as a decoy, or his forward pressure.
He did what was asked of him to the extent he earned votes.

Perhaps they just give votes on the day when and where it is deserved?
If you think Plowman getting votes is corrupt, then Walsh winning must be corrupt as well, you can't have it both ways. If Plowman's votes came undeservedly, they came from someone who deserved them, maybe from Walsh but maybe also from Weitering or McKay. You can't know, you are free to arbitrarily choose a bias, but it is still a bias!
