Yes, even though he didn't kick a goal this has the potential to be a Kerridge of the year contender. Late inclusion and ran rampant completely unaccountably.Newman ended up with 35 odd disposals. Has to be this week's Kerridge.
I sat there watching him all game and still don't know who he is.
Classic Kerridge performance.
A complete unknown scrub is a late in and proceeds to collect 30+ disposals in a far and away career best effort.

Crashing back to earth. Thankfully Mother's Day was a welcome distraction from this game. Swans by 42 points

KERRIDGE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
View attachment 370575
Ladies and Gentleman we have a contender for a Kerridge of the Year performance! After being a late inclusion, Nic Newman proceeded to do as he pleased taunting his opposition all day. 35 disposals at 82% efficiency, 11 marks and 4 tackles left North supporters with sore necks from shaking their heads in disbelief. A sneaking suspicion tells me he will hold his place in the team this week after making the best players!
PERRIE AWARD
An unbelievable performance sees Newman sweep the pools this week with one for the ages. His score included a late inclusion bonus of 50 Perrie points which he scoffed at making a 'Thanks but no thanks' statement. Even the Swans supporters have no idea who he is. For anybody who doesn't here is his badge......
SPECIAL MENTION
A special mention to 'The Pelican' Lewis Melican who truly spudded it. Had 1 handball to his name at 3 quarter time and ended up with 6 disposals for the game but he did go at 100% efficiency and so picked up the 'Sam Gibson 100% disposal efficiency' x1.5 multiplier.
SPUD FARMER OF THE WEEK AWARD
Well done to boneofshin and naturally north for hanging in there for the final teams and picking up the late change and nominating Nic Newman for the Kerridge and the Perrie Award for the week.
A well deserved VP and a Side of Fries are yours and boneofshin draws level again at the top of the leaderboard.
PHIL DAVIS POSSESSION COUNT
+17 = 97 Kicks = 43
Track Phil Davis throughout the season to see if he can make his way past the 100 possession and/or kick mark.
A big game for Phil with 17 disposals and he's oh so close to cracking the ton. A sure thing next week to raise the bat in Round 9.
KERRIDGE WATCH
Dropped again and not even emergency this week for old mate Sam. As he does he goes back to the VFL and dominates racking up 28 disposals and 11 marks. The plot thickens.......

v GoDeez this week Sunday arvo at the MCG. Get your nominations in!
Hewett had a Kerridge-worthy game too.Towers had what would normally be a fine Kerridge-worthy game but just got blown off the park by Newman, who of course I traded out of my supercoach team this week before the late changes. Going to have to trade the bastard back in to make the cash now.
Newman ended up with 35 odd disposals. Has to be this week's Kerridge.
I sat there watching him all game and still don't know who he is.
My nomination v GoDeez this week is Dean Kent
Pedo? The Rolf Harris multiplier?Before I make my selection, I have to ask if there is an ex-North player multiplier?
Early tip, Hogan to have a breakout 8 or 9 goal game which the "football world " has been waiting for since his drafting.

Oooooo yes!! A necessity. Great idea and name for it. Worth a x1.5 multiplier. OP updated.Pedo? The Rolf Harris multiplier?
