Voting is as usual: you have 15 votes to award pretty much as you will, with the following provisos:
[1] 15 votes in total, no more, no less.
[2] No more than 10 votes for any one player (even Sam Walsh or Patrick Cripps)
[3] Three players at least must get a mention.
[4] A grade for the game, A+ (what I want to see) to F-.
Hopefully we'll have guys to vote for. :))
Hopefully we have some people who want to vote!

Cripps and Docherty had plenty of ball but so did their opponents , Newman has been very good all year and Acres showed plenty of ticker to stay on the park and play good footy.
Liked McGoverns game, nothing fancy just disciplined football, gave Pittonet a vote as both him and TDK controlled the rucks but I like Pittonets presence around the contest
and I think he is cementing himself in the team and its helped Jack to return to better form down forward.

Rd 3: Carlton vs GWS
A win is a win, but particularly at a ground where we’ve rarely won. Also, we won travelling interstate, another thing we haven’t done much of for a long time. As such, I’ll take it.
Rating: B
In the circumstances, I’ll take it. But I hope we can do better against North.
Votes:
[3] Nick Newman
[3] Patrick Cripps
[2] Sam Docherty
[1] Adam Cerra
[1] Adam Saad
[1] Blake Acres
[1] Jack Silvagni
[1] Charlie Curnow
[0.5] Jesse Motlop
[0.5] Marc Pittonet
[0.5] Jacob Weitering
[0.5] Mitch McGovern
Explanations:
[3] Nick Newman: Destroyed his opponent and got the ball a lot.
[3] Patrick Cripps: 42 possessions and 13 clearances.
[2] Sam Docherty: best game for the year so far. Brilliant, especially in the 3rd quarter.
[1] Adam Cerra: Very solid game from Cerra.
[1] Adam Saad: Not as brilliant as he has been, but still did a great job.
[1] Blake Acres: Excellent, even though injured.
[1] Jack Silvagni: Best game for a while. He got a lot of the ball and made great decisions.
[1] Charlie Curnow: If he could have kicked straight, we’d be lauding this game, as he played well on a really good opponent. Alas, he kicked 2 goals 4! Could have had 7 or 8!
[0.5] Jesse Motlop: Promising.
[0.5] Marc Pittonet: Good job in the ruck and around the ground.
[0.5] Jacob Weitering: Destroyed his opponent again.
[0.5] Mitch McGovern: Really solid job across half back.
Honourable Mentions:
Matthew Owies: Brilliant until he did his hamstring. Would have got votes if he’d played the full game.
Corey Durdin: Really good negatively, but needs more possessions.
George Hewett: Not at his normal form, clearly looking after his hand, but still got a fair bit of the ball.
Zac Fisher: Normally, if he’d had this many possessions he’d have had a lot more impact. But he didn’t have the impact I’d prefer.
Tom de Koning: Almost vote worthy. Good job in the ruck, but needs to work on his disposal.
I'll leave this open for another day, but I don't expect much action from this point.
