So the Norm Smith is just the best player on the winning team now?

[Barry_Badrinath]

Kennedy was clearly BOG. Johanissen butchered it quite a bit.

There's only been 4 winners on the losing team, but the last one was 11 years ago now. He was never a chance with Brad Johnson as one of the 5 selectors though.

 

[Armchair Critic]

Tom Boyd deserved it IMO.Was massive for them

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

The winner wasn't even the best player on his team

 

[DapperDon]

Kennedy by far the best. JJ not Dogs best but it is what it is.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Would've had Boyd and Picken both over Johannisen regardless.

 

[DERIBERATE]

Tom Boyd's marks change the game, Kennedy's possessions didn't, end of

 

[Halorad]

Cant say that i even noticed Kennedy in the last quarter. When the game was there to be won at the end JJ was everywhere.

 

[ioppolo]

Liam Picken or Kennedy

 

[Badesumofu]

It was an odd choice. Almost like they just went with whichever bloke had the most touches for the winning side.

 

[Pies_10]

Tom Boyd was BOG.
3.2, 8 marks, 4 contested.
Was the best on the ground in the second half.

 

[thecatattack]

it always has been. ablett was bog in 2008

 

[TheOz]

He wasn't even the best player on his team. Morris should have won it.

 

[Andrew Mc]

It was an odd choice. Almost like they just went with whichever bloke had the most touches for the winning side.

So, just another Brownlow then?

 

[Adz]

Kennedy barely impacted when it mattered.

 

[trooroo4life]

He wasn't even in the top 3 for his side, no idea what game the panel were watching. Mare of a decision.

 

[banzai]

How was johannisen even in dogs top 5 on the ground. Boyd should have won it.

 

[PAFC_1870]

That's the worst Norm Smith in history.

 

[wikinick257]

It's decided by Fantasy points now

 

[DERIBERATE]

Zane Cordy got a louder cheer than JJ when they went up for their premiership medals. Says it all

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Kennedy got 30 plus possies and 3 goals

In a losing side that is massive but Boyd was also massive too.

Felt that those 2 were the best with Picken 3rd and Morris and Rampe also having great games

 

[Mr Eagle]

He wasn't even the best planet on his team.

Quoted for posterity. Bless you, predictive text...

 

[trooroo4life]

Boyd, Picken wayyyyyyyyy better then JJ today.

Kennedy and Mitchell also way ahead as well.

 

[Farm Boy]

BOG was Kennedy, and then you start a list for the others. What a joke. The AFL is a joke.

 

[Barry_Badrinath]

Tom Boyd's marks change the game, Kennedy's possessions didn't, end of

His 3 goals had a bigger impact than Boyd's marks. Like I said, just because your team lost it doesn't mean you didn't impact the game.

 

[Hamingja]

Most stats on the winning team.

Should have been given to an influential Dog or JPK.
