Couldn't they just post the vision with a backing track of Spanish Flea instead?

 

[Heaps of fun]

Anyone done the votes per game calculations? Would Thomas or LDU have won?

[TennisPlayerAndy]

LOL at Howe’s average.

 

[The Nostradamus]

LOL at Howe’s average.

Found halls funnier

6 games for 3 votes for one of of veterans shows how poor he was despite getting the ball

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Curtis’ are a worry.

Played a full season and on average didn’t even play his role to an acceptable level.

 

[amaz199]

in fairness Curtis had the second year blues, got I'll and didn't really fire until mid-seasonish. Even then, it wasn't until late that he started getting busy.

 

[Makeshift Park]

I think there’s limited value in extrapolating how well first and second year players performed from those numbers.

What I do find interesting is the massive divergence between those averages and the BF consensus on how highly Mahony and Turner ranked, compared to how lowly Logue featured.

I mean, sure, it’s a small sample size for Mahony, but even still, who would’ve rated the glimpses we saw of him higher than Logue?

I would also say that I think the votes are representative of 'did they play the role we asked them to play' Supporters often don't know/understand what players have been asked to do, which is often a lot of things you wouldn't notice on a first watch of a game/could never see on a TV screen.

I also think there is a bit of relatively to expectations of the player in the voting. I think some of the younger players get a easier run in the Syd Barker because they outperform what is expected of them.

Maybe they could use some of the Membership dues they are raking in?
