WCE votes

[Macca19]

Quite a good match to watch. Saw a few bigfootyites on the replay!!
To be honest the Eagles didnt play that badly. Reall it was only about 12 minutes of the match where the Eagles were out of it....about 6 minutes in the 2nd quarter where Melbourne kicked 3-4 goals quickly, and 6 minutes in the last when Melbourne did the same thing. Other than that the Eagles definatly matched Melbourne for most of the game. They fought back well.
It was hard to find votes for players....their werent many consistent performers thruout the match which made it difficult but this is what i came up with:

5) Kerr - A great game. Showed his 2001 form this match and was by far the eagles best performer. Won a lot of the ball and used it well.

4) Glass - Just snuck in for 4 votes. I thought his game was supurb for the second week in a row. He beat Neitz in the first quarter before being moved onto Schwarz at the start of the second and Schwarz had about 3 kicks for the rest of the match. Glass ran off schwarz a few times as well. I like this kid...i reckon he can play

3) Peter Matera - did some great things in the second half. Had a quiet first half but came into the match in the 2nd and set up a few Eagles goals

2) Judd - Eagles second best midfielder on the day and this guy just continues to show why he was a top 4 draft pick. He oozes confidence (i just love how he backs his ability and runs like mad) and he kicked 2 great goals. They might as well give him the Rising Star award now!!

1) Wirrpunda - snuck in for a vote because of his two great goals in the last quarter.

others i wrote down:
Williams - started well but really fell out of the game after 1/4 time
Cousins - had a average game...came into the game in the last half but he was too quiet for me to find a vote for him
Jones - i thought he ended up having a fine game

Macca ill add your votes but watch the game again sometime during the week and tell me if you still think Glass deserved 4 votes. Dont get me wrong, we think the kid can play aswell and will be the rock of our defence in years to come but McIntosh actually played on Neitz in the first quarter before going off. Only then was Glass switched onto him. Then Neitz kicked 5 goals on Glass and he was then replaced by Jako. Jako tamed him from there on out.

Although i thought Glass had a good game and once moved off Neitz, did the job on Schwarz but i just thought that second quarter was where we lost the game. Not all Glass' fault as the delivery was good and not much pressure from our midfielders but it still hurt us.

He was alright and just missed out on a vote from me but im not sure about 4 votes? But each to there own and ill add your votes.

Glass and Gaspar should have been nowhere near the votes. They both had shockers. I have to question Williams getting a vote as well. Didn't do much when he got the ball.

Andrew Williams did nothing.
Plus his opponent Clint Bizzell ran off him all day and gave the Demons strong run offf half back.

I don't think Glass was that bad.
It was only for a ten minute period in the second quarter when the ball was being pumped down there so fast, it didn't give any defender a chance.
Before that he kept Green quiet, and after that he killed Schwarz.

Neitz had 2 goals when Glass was moved off him and Jackovich moved on him. Mcintosh went off in the first 5-10 minutes. I thought Glass played great on Schwarz...and did ok on Neitz for a bit before he got on top. Glass also set up a few attacks forward which is why i thought he got the 4 votes...i thought baout it for a while, and he just snuck ahead of matera and judd. Was very close between those 3 for who would get 4-3-2 votes.
I could ask you the same thing about how you couuld give Cousins 4 votes? But its all opinionated...we all see things from different perspectives and thats the glory of football!!!

Glass did have a few forays forward, which he usually doesnt do. His disposal for once also wasnt that bad. I always have my heart in my mouth when Glass has the ball....

On Cuz...i thought his second half alone was worthy of some votes, he was missing in the first half which was disappointing but i thought he played so well in the second half that he and Kerr kept us in the match when it seemed like Melbournes midfield was all over us. He also kicked a very good goal...broke the lines and ran very hard and finished well.
