Oppo Camp 2015 Sam Kerridge Spud Shield

upload_2015-4-3_9-15-36.png


We're back again.

For those new to the board, the Spud Shield is an award voted for by the posters of the NMFC board.

Before every game, every week, nominate a player from the opposition who you believe is, by definition, a "spud", yet has the ability to dominate North from the outset and potentially win their team the game.

For examples, check last year's thread for a conclusive list.

The scoring process is simple - any player nominated will have their statistics checked post-game and a points total will be assigned based on the following system:

The points are awarded as follows:

Every kick: 5 points
Every handball: 3 points
Every goal: 10 points
Every mark: 3 points
Every tackle: 6 points
If player was sub, multiply total by 1.5
If player was making debut, multiply total by 1.5
If player was subbed, multiply total by 1.5
If player was not born in Australia, multiply total by 1.5
If player's every kick was a goal, add 100 Perrie points

For example, Sam Kerridge won last year with this game:

Round 13 vs Adelaide (36 point loss)
Sam Kerridge 4 kicks (20) 5 handballs (15) 4 goals (40) 1 mark (3) 0 tackles (0) +100 EVERY KICK WAS A GOAL = 178 Perrie points

He also won in 2013 with this game:

ROUND 9 VS ADELAIDE
Sam Kerridge: 14 kicks (70), 12 handballs (36), 6 goals (60), 8 marks (24), 1 tackle (6) = 196 Perrie points

Anyway. A bit of fun. Nominate your players for Round 1 in here.

As always, this thread was originally the idea of MC_Forward50 and all praise is due to him.

I haven't seen the time and I'm pleased our boy Sammy isn't playing. Is he an emergency/late inclusion?

If not, I nominate some hack flanker who will kick 4 goals and be dropped two weeks later.

The best thread doing the rounds, just sometimes I feel we nominate a worthy winner, but a guy who performs well against us and ends up being delisted at seasons end isn't given the x1000 his game deserved.

I suppose we can't cater for everything.
 
I know he is not eligible but surely Ty Vickery deserves at least honorary inclusion in this thread.

Actually re-reading the rules he can't become eligible until Round 6 and I'm tipping if he's playing he'll just put in the usual spud effort without the Sam Kerridge performance characteristics.

If we're being a bit less generous then you could throw in:

Matthew Jaensch
Ricky Henderson
Matthew Wright
Nathan Van Berlo
Tom Lynch
Josh Jenkins
David Mackay


Ellis-Yolmen is my tip.

no Cheney? given two clubs have given up I would think he would qualify or glass half full 3 clubs think he shows enough. He probably won't have a huge influence.
