I guess it has the fact that we have disappointed for so long that makes me fill with trepidation. However, I will be there. There will be people who deserve votes.
OK, guys. I'm all ready for tomorrow. Right down to the Angst flowing through my body. Car'n the Blues!
Remember:
[1] At least 3 players need to get a mention.
[2] No more than 10 votes for any one player.
[3] Give a rating of team performance. It can be anywhere from A+ to F.
[4] Votes must add up to 15.
Live Long and Prosper!

Staggers me how you give Murphy votes. His specialty has become soft sub 20m up and unders.
Sad fact is until we find a better Captain, we wont be much chop.
Finals, then 4 in a row!

I would like to see Murphy play up forward, but our midfield is not yet of quality to allow us to do that.
Anyway, back to the votes. Keep them coming, even if the rating is poor. God knows we were poor!

I was tempted to give us an “F”, but we did get the ball more than a bit and we had more inside 50’s. I admit being embarrassed at the ground. It was really a poor effort.
Votes:
[4] Ed Curnow
[2.5] Patrick Cripps
[2] Marc Murphy
[2] Charlie Curnow
[1.5] Sam Petrevski-Seton
[1] Zac Fisher
[1] Kade Simpson
[0.5] Aaron Mullett
[0.5] Daisy Thomas
Explanations:
[4] Ed Curnow: 38 possessions is probably his best ever. He worked very hard and didn’t make a lot of mistakes by foot, his usual problem.
[2.5] Patrick Cripps: Considering the free kicks he didn’t get (he did get 5, but could have 13) and the man handling he experienced, he had a great game. Considering also that he basically had to rove to Witts; that makes his effort even more creditable. It is a pity his kicking for goal still needs so much work.
[2] Marc Murphy: A really gutsy effort from the Captain this week. But his turnovers were not what we needed.
[2] Charlie Curnow: Charlie continues to show why he is one of the AFL’s more impressive youngsters. His marking was good.
[1.5] Sam Petrevski-Seton: SPS ran out of gas a bit, but he showed skills so many of our players lack. He almost had mark of the year …
[1] Zac Fisher: Zac also ran out of gas a bit, but he was brilliant when we were at our most ordinary.
[1] Kade Simpson: Simmo got so much ball that it was brilliant, but his disposal and decision making today were the exact opposite of last week: ordinary at best to terrible at worst.
[0.5] Aaron Mullett: Mullett showed his strengths and his weaknesses today. He got the ball quite well and his kicking was usually better than most of our players, but he was soft and did not do the negative things we required.
[0.5] Daisy Thomas: Only 14 possessions, but he showed the heart and desire that his team mates needed more of.
Honourable Mentions:
Matthew Wright: Ordinary for much of the game, he had a great last quarter and tried all day.
Liam Jones: He lost only 1 contest on the day as a defender, but was caught out a number of times with his willingness to take risks. He still did some of the more inspirational things of any of our players.
Lachie Plowman: Another who was solid if relatively unspectacular. He did his job, but appears to be not at his best at the moment.
Live Long and Prosper!

Well said, agree with almost all of that, except I wouldn't have given Thomas votes, most of his possessions went straight to GCS players (although to be fair he had a lot of mates in that regard), and the almost mark of the year was Garlett - highest i have seen a player jump since Walker used Carlisle as a stepladder that night....
