Apologies for taking so long.
AFL 2022 Rd 14 Carlton vs Richmond
What could have been. I missed this game because I slept for 16 hours straight. I’m irritated that I missed it. I’m even more irritated with what happened.
Trends:
[1] There were 10 voters this week. I think the moral of this tale is simple: don’t lose and the voters will turn out.
[2] The rating this week was 7.6, which represents a C-, for the second week in a row. Not bad, but not good enough.
[3] 12 players managed a mention this week, which is better than last year, but nowhere near the sort of thing we get when we play well.
[4] The average votes was 25 again this week. Not what we really want to see.
[5] Patrick Cripps managed his 6th BOG this week. A pity it wasn’t as outstanding as his game in Round 1. Saad managed his third 2nd place for the season. He has been a very good pickup.
[6] We appear to have been beaten in the middle of the ground again. This has usually been the case when we’ve lost. I’ll be happy to see Marc Pittonet back, but that is still in the future. We have done really well without him, better than I thought we could. But he is the link we have been missing.
[7] 5 players managed votes from all the voters this week. This is unusual, but it suggests that these 5 were significantly better than the rest. Hewett missed out on votes from 2 voters.
[8] 6 players managed 100 votes or more, which is very impressive. It does suggest that the others didn’t do enough.
[9] Doc remains the only player who has polled votes in every game so far. That may not have been the case if we hadn’t had so many injuries, as a number of players have been particularly consistent this year, when they’ve been available.
