Bomber did not rate Selwwods game

[Boundary-Rider]

Just watched FC and when they posted the coaches votes no mention of Selwood at all. However he did or from the fact that 2 votes to Chapman was recorded this was the only Geelong player worth a vote from either coach.

Poor Selwood had agreat game, gotta worry when your own coach does not rate you on that effort he showed.

Rubbish. Chapman was our best, and the Roos players played better than us.

Selwood was great. Doesn't mean he was BOG.

You are reading too much into it. Bomber might have given Selwood a vote behind 3 or 4 roo players, just as likely Laidley didn't rate it.

From an article on gfc.com.au

"Thompson was unable to explain just why the side didn't start to look competitive until there was only 40 minutes remaining in the game.
He did praise the lead-by-example performance of youngster Joel Selwood, but said it shouldn't be left to a player in his first year of senior football to inspire the rest of the side.
"Again, the mindset … I thought Joel Selwood was just incredible for a person playing his third or fourth game," he said.
"He led the way. That's a young kid coming out, who has a dream to play footy, and plays a certain way.
"To me, he looked like he inspired the rest of the group."

You could hardly saw that bomber didn't rate him. Seems like Selwood is one of the only things left down there that give him a boner...

Selwood did not receive a vote at all. even with a 5.4.3.2.1 system for the coaches. Chapman received 2 votes the only ctas player to be viewed by the coaches as worthy of a vote. So many here rated Selwood BOG for geelong with Jimmy and Chappy next, All I was pointing out was the coaches votes as on FC last night.

I agree, Jimmy has been our best player for all 5 games, I love the way he plays.
