Autopsy Smashed in the middle no worries brutal 14pt win against the Bulldogs

[Nool Carpenna]

Good write up Nool , question though , why do we call it a contest and not a match anymore ?

Thanks.
In the context that I used it, it is clearly a contest and not a match.
In more general terms, I have no idea, nor do I care.

I actually do , as it's an actual match with contests taking place over the ground . I just asked why Nools

JUH they are kidding , Richards was better in a half

 

[Kiama Chris]

JUH they are kidding , Richards was better in a half

No way was Bont the second best player on the ground. Jones was their best over the full game.

 

[liz]

I also shook my head when I read those. I too would have Richards and Jones as their best two. Treloar? Really?

I actually would have given my five votes to Errol rather than Chad. I suspect I'm in a minority, but Chad played one fantastic quarter and just mosied around for the other three. Not bad but nothing special. Errol was excellent for the whole game, and it was his outstanding kicking that kept us about level with the Dogs in the first half.

 

[PurpJuice]

Had Richards not been injured he would’ve had 10, however it’s hard to give a player coaches votes when they only play a half.

Not if he hadn't stopped Chad's third quarter. He was highly productive and quite impactful in his time on the ground, but nothing close to Chad's match-winning cameo. And while he didn't have as many possessions as Richards, Errol was individually more impactful than Richards in the first half because his high-risk kicking was so immaculate.

Horse is trolling us with those votes

I think Warner was a matchwinner so I get the 5 votes, but yes the case for Errol as our best all day is very telling. Will be interesting best and fairest night

 

[caesar88]

I think the issue with coaches votes is that the coach only has five to give out. Unless the game was a one-sided affair, there's likely gonna be players from both teams receiving votes. It just doesn't give them much wiggle room for nuance, and by the time you've gone through both teams it's hard to have those conversations we're having above like Gulden vs Warner, Richards vs Treloar. So by default the stats sheet tends to win out.

I still think it's much better than the Brownlow, as it's voted on by informed parties. But I also wouldn't be surprised if in the B&F - where there's no limit on the distribution of votes across the players, allowing more nuanced voting - guys like Grundy, McInerney etc. probably poll just as many votes as Warner & Gulden do for this game.

I am i got that off my late mum , why do they have to change a game is a game , a match is a match and they have contests during them . It's like bullshit terms like high balls when it's a kick

Hard to kick high with high balls.

I'm just surprised Heeney wasn't cited for headbutting Bont's elbow.

 

[caesar88]

I really enjoy these posts the Swans have been doing.

It is also why I simply won't entertain any media about us - no matter how glowing - if all it mentions is Heeney & Warner.

Plays made by others here lead directly to three of Warner's four goals.

These sorts of plays happening - often built on effort & work rate - are the number one reason we are the best team this year, and should be the things any glowing appraisal of our season should begin with.

 

[caesar88]

And FWIW my favourite of those plays is the McLean tackle. Yes he gets a lot of help from McInerney to land the final blow, but he reaches an arm out and manages to grab the opponent's jumper. It's an act of desperation that he somehow manages to make look casual, and I feel like that sums him up as a player and why I like him so much.
