Imagine if Gulden hits form.

Imagine if Gulden hits form.

I know, I know, “how did you leave Errol out?!?!”

Because the game is 4 quarters. My view - Errol played 2.

As many have said, it was a tough PTOY this week & I respect the variety of views. In fact, I find it really interesting to see the differing perspectives.

Agreed. I do my votes similar. Its one thing to play well in the 3rd and 4th when we are flying. Its another to be why we were still in the game at half time

Fair point. I guess when I look again at the highlights I see his insane number of score involvements in that quarter, and think without him it wouldn't have happened.

it's always interesting to look over everyone's votes, you look back on the game with different views ... i probably underestimated the efforts of serong and rowbottom

If I'd have voted immediately after the game, I'm certain my votes would have been completely different, but after watching the full replay, I thought Serong and Rowie were doing the hard work when things weren't going out way.

they definitely were ... and i still think blakey was good early, and very much part of changing the game
