Added that as an edit but still no certainty which coach voted the 4s for instance, or the 2s. I thought Hayward played a strong team game but 4? Srsly? Must be Mitchell having a stir.
Yeah no idea who was what and there might be another breakdown of what happened. If the plan was for Hayward to stop one of their rebound defenders I could see Longmore giving him 4 but I was shocked to see him in the votes
Weird! Got mine from the app. These make more sense.Different coaches votes!!!!

They are not included if it is an agreement with the wife not the player. If a non sponsor gives money to a player's wife arranged by the wife's business manager it has nothing to do with the player. These are not agreements that have anything to do with the club. Tom Hawkins wife was bought a boutique in an arrangement made by her business manager. Who provided the cash may never be known but because it had nothing to do with the club, not officially, then it is not part of the salary cap. Tom Scully's father was hired as a recruiter. His salary would have been in the soft cap anyway.
Don't discount Amartey either. He was on managed minutes because of his late start to the season. But he kicked 4 first half goals. I think he will only get better. Next week we will have him as second ruck I think. Hayden was a bit iffy yesterday. Seemed to have a case of the fumbles and was not getting to contests.Really enjoying watching the overlap run develop, and I think we will only get better in this aspect as this season goes on, and over the next couple of years at least.
While we butchered some disposals today, I think you can see a clear step up in quality at times in our play from last year, which at times was already very, very good. We have a lot of players who use the ball well and can hit targets. Some of our targets are still developing per say (in terms of the big forwards post Buddy), but you can really see the building understanding between many of them.
One guy I want to give a huge wrap to is Florent - he was good last week and very good today. Feel very calm when he has ball in hand most of the time, and his decision making continues to improve.
I also like having Harry C up forward to. Like him down back, but think he brings some good pressure into the forward line that will be needed with the big guys up front.
And McDonald is going to be a superstar - the guy has class marked all over him
Great day out at the footy smashing the hawks!
If you're able I recommend you catch the chat afterwards from On the Couch. Was an interesting insight to how they saw it.
Should I know who that is? (Says the old bloke.) Looks like his sister.
It's only private sponsorship deals that are KNOWN that go into the cap.
I was amazed how much she looks like him. Thought at first she was his sister or something.
Snap!!!
I was very happy with what Amartey showed. I don't rate any ruck work from him much, but I do think he has potential to really get around the ground and influence in a way that Maclean probably can't.
