Toast 2022 club champion awards - congrats Rory Laird!

[George Kramer]

Soligo a top 10 bnf in his first year.

How did Jones, McHenry and McAsey go?

 

[spenze]

Pretty talkative for a guy coming out of the toilets

 

[George Kramer]

Another quality contribution.

Yet another season when the opposition coaches (AFL Coaches Award), the umpires (Brownlow) and our coaches all get it wrong but the Great Brett Cummings Bearded Clam and a few of the usual suspects are of course right.

He’s Rubbish!

So who are the usual suspects?

Fog finished pretty highly too, 1 vote away from top 5

 

[rocket18]

Jeez, is Nicks applying for his job again?

He should be applying for a job at Centrals or Westies.

McAdam did very well considering games played.

Do you want to work your magic and do the top 10 based on average score per game?

Keays too high, Smith way too high.

Other than that, pretty well right.

Great to see Berry and Soligo in the top 10, McAdam the quiet achiever.

 

[StonesThrow]

It won't happen

We don't know how to utilise skill players at all, Sholl or anyone else. We don't hold any structure around stoppages or around the ball at any time

It's why Hately ends up on the wing and Murphy is our dream hff. Crash in, numbers to the contest, hack it forward, try to repeat the process

For us the wing/hff positions end up just crash n bash mids that we can't fit into the midfield at the present time

We utilised Seedsman just fine last year in this role.

I'm not saying coaching doesn't have some fault, but I agree with Bicks on Sholl. He fell off completely especially with his decision making and kicking (from what he showed early in his career) and when exposed to any physical contests he lacks strength and athleticism (knocked off the ball with slow recovery).

I really liked him early on so I'm not writing him off. He seems to have lost of lot of confidence in his strengths and his weaknesses are easy to expose.

Fog really came home with a wet sail.

ROB should be embarrassed he couldn't crack the top ten.

Dont forget Fogarty.

also had a superb season despite having to plug many holes in our team.

Tex superb (lucky he didn’t just ****off and retire two years ago as suggested by certain BF posters).

had much better seasons than you would think if you read BF.

Great effort by Fogarty, Soligo and Berry!

 

[1990crow]

What happens under the desk, stays under The Desk.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Keays too high, Smith way too high.

Other than that, pretty well right.

Great to see Berry and Soligo in the top 10, McAdam the quiet achiever.

Nah, season long I'd only have Walker ahead of Keays, maybe Fogarty. Agree re: Smithers

ROB not being top 10 should be a wake up call for him

 

[George Kramer]

Another quality contribution.

Yet another season when the opposition coaches (AFL Coaches Award), the umpires (Brownlow) and our coaches all get it wrong but the Great Brett Cummings Bearded Clam and a few of the usual suspects are of course right.

He’s Rubbish!

Interesting, I’m not saying he’s rubbish but you might want to have a look at average score per game played. Take out Soligo’s sub game he finishes .06 ahead of Keays and Fog is also ahead.

So our second best mid was outscored by a first year player and developing key forward whose first 5 games sucked.

McAdam also finished ahead of Keays.

Bearded Clam appears Jack has gone early again

 

[Danger in Texas]

Bearded Clam appears Jack has gone early again

Please don't tag him, we don't need another Keays shitfight in this thread

 

[George Kramer]

Please don't tag him, we don't need another Keays shitfight in this thread

Agreed, but utensils need to be put in their place if they are going to have a crack

 

[StonesThrow]

Keays was on par with laird for at least half the season as our best player. No surprise to see him top 5 imo.

Smith and Doedee high up by virtue of games played? Berry and Soligo missed chunks and so did Fog. Butts had a down year and McHenry and Jones certainly weren't going to steal votes.

Voting looks pretty representative of our year tbh.

Your not saying he was rubbish but do you support the view (stated endlessly) that he is not an AFL player and should never again play for the Crows?

I have never said he is a future Brownlow Medallist but he does not deserve all the s**t dumped on him by a small group of poorly informed posters.

And to correct your “gone early again” bullshit, I never posted on the Brownlow Medal thread.

Big second half of the year from Fog. Not bad for a guy with no AFL traits

Keays scored 26 in the last 10 games, that’s pretty crap.

 

[Sanders]

Keays scored 26 in the last 10 games, that’s pretty crap.

And still finished 3rd.

Interesting to see just how valuable Tex remains despite his suspension.

And we arsed about deciding whether he got another year????

 

[Danger in Texas]

Keays scored 26 in the last 10 games, that’s pretty crap.

Still finished high despite that crap finish to the season

I'm a long-time fan of Keays and by no means agree with the nuffies that say he belongs in the SANFL, but him finishing third, considering that poor end to the season, speaks more volumes to how average we were over the course of the year
