A big thanks to robertg22 for maintaining the Didaka count this year
How did we do?
Didaka Count:
1. Pendlebury - 64
2. Sidebottom - 46
3. Beams - 45
4. Cloke, Elliott -20
6. Frost - 14
7. Langdon - 13
8. Lumumba - 10
9. Witts - 9
10. Maxwell, Macaffer, Swan, Broomhead, Thomas - 8
15. Young, Adams - 7
17. Kennedy - 6
18. Fasolo, Grundy, White - 4
21. Goldsack, Keeffe, Armstrong, Williams - 3
25. Blair, Dwyer - 2
27. Ball - 1
Copeland Count:
1. Scott Pendlebury 165
2. Steele Sidebottom 114 – R.T Rush Trophy
3. Dayne Beams 112 – J.J Joyce Trophy
4. Heritier Lumumba 89 – J.F McHale Trophy
5. Brent Macaffer 85 – Jack Regan Trophy
6. Jamie Elliott 81
7. Travis Cloke 74
8. Tyson Goldsack 61
9. Jack Frost 61
10. Jarryd Blair 59
The folks at CFC who hand out the votes clearly know how to pick the obvious ones. First, second and third are a match, even down to the relative gaps being just about spot on.
It goes a bit awry after that.
Heritier 4th in the Copeland but 8th in the Didaka. It either highlights how the BigFooty folk didn't dig his chakras ... or ... The folks at CFC knew they wanted to offload him end of year and were trying to boost his trade value
Brent Macaffer 5th in the Copeland but equal 10th in Didaka. BigFooty has spoken, we don't like taggers! Give us skillful positive midfielders!
Elliott 6th / Cloke 7th in the Copeland but equal 4th in the Didaka. Again, the BigFooty folks have spoken ... Give us goals damn it!!! And pack bursting marks and screamers over the top are good too!!! It's much better than the negative tagging and backline stuff we get from 'H' and McCaffer.
Goldsack 8th in the Copeland but equal 21st in the Didaka. My oh my, how could the folks at CFC get it so wrong!?
Frost 9th in the Copeland but 6th in the Didaka. Goes to show that the BigFooty folks appreciate a nice fairy tale a bit more than the stern folks at CFC!! That BigFooty picked Langdon at 7th and CFC didn't rank him top 10 only reinforces this theory
Blair 10th in the Copeland but equal 25th in the Didaka. Some BigFooty folks have speculated that Blair holds solid blackmail material on Buckley as the likely explanation for Blair's continued selection. They're going to have to come up with a new theory to explain how Blair is considered by CFC to be the 10th best player on our list!
