Robert Heatley Stand / Re: Jim Park Award 2026
Last post by crashlander -I've left the voting thread open for longer, because of the short week. But, losing turns voters off, and another fail hurts. Especially as we managed to grab defeat from the jaws of victory yet again. I hate writing this ...
Trends:
[1] There were 10 voters this round, which is the same as last 2 rounds. Nichevo. When we lose, it is difficult to get voters to care enough to vote, especially when we don't show that we've learnt anything from those losses.
Please do voteplease do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate and it makes our statistics a lot more reliable. And our statistics hold up pretty well when it comes to John Nicholls Medal night!
[2] The rating was a 7.77, which represents a C-, is the best we've managed for the year and we still lost.
Our rating of the Richmond game, our only win, was 7.69 which says far too much.
[3] 13 players managed a mention this week. Clearly, most of our players are doing something, enough to get noticed, just not enough to get us over the line.
[4] The average vote this week was 25, which is also our equal best of the year. Scores are around 30 when we win, so read into that what you will.
[5] 4 players managed 100 votes or more. This is becoming the norm, which is something I like.
[6] Sam Walsh was BOG for the 5th time this season with 287 votes. He was followed by Kemp, Carroll and Cripps.
[7] Two player managed votes from everyone this week. This tells us that the same players were being seen as making a significant contribution.
[8] Our mids were probably our strongest group this week, but we were still beaten there.
[9] Matt Carroll was probably our most effective youngsters on the night for the 2nd week in a row.

H having 64 shows just how out of sorts he is. Considering that he is our key forward, that really shows our dysfunctional our forward line is.
Similarly, look at Weitering's score. When he is playing well, he'd be a 1000 by now.
