Getting ready for this week. I'm assuming people still want this. Voting will be as usual.
AFL 2025 Rd 1: Carlton vs Richmond
Probably our poorest game in a long time, we capitulated against Richmond after leading by 41 points. We played stupid football and got run over by a side many predicted not to win a game. There wasn't much positive to get out of it.
Trends:
[1] There were 12 voters this round, which is not great for Rd 1. Granted that we lost, but a few more people putting in their opinions would be appreciated. Please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate.
[2] The rating was a 5.58, which is almost an E-, one of the worst performances under Michael Voss. Some us could see some positives from our first quarter and a bit, other just saw the train wreck.
[3] 11 players managed a mention this week. When we win, we often get 15 or more. And then, a couple of these guys were actually beaten.
[4] The average vote this week was 19!. That is the worst I can remember.
[5] 3 players managed 100 votes or more this week.
[6] Jacob Weitering was an easy winner this week. He slaughtered his opponent. Tome de Koning and Patrick Cripps shared equal second.
[7] Two player managed votes from everyone this week; Patrick Cripps and Tom de Koning. Our BOG, Weitering, missed one.
[8] Of our youngsters, Lucas Camporeale made an impression with 21 disposals. Pity not many of them hit targets, but he wasn't alone there.
[9] This was a game where our forwards struggled. Mids and defenders got the votes.

AFL 2025 Rd 2: Carlton vs Hawthorn
Lots of things didn't go our way, but it was our inability to finish that killed us. Much better than last week, but still not what we need to win.
Trends:
[1] There were 11 voters this round, which is heading in the wrong direction. Alas, that often happens when we lose, and our 1st two games have been considerably worse than we had hoped. Please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate.
[2] The rating was a 7.79, which is almost an C-. Not good enough, but compared to last week infinitely better.
[3] 14 players managed a mention this week, which is also an improvement. When we win, we often get 15 or more.
[4] The average vote this week was 27. The effort was there, but ...
[5] 4 players managed 100 votes or more this week. That shows we had a much improved performance.
[6] Tom de Koning was this week's winner, which is disappointing. Not that I dislike Tom, but his opponent was also a significant player (for the second week in a row). For that matter, Patrick Cripps was clearly 2nd, and he, too, lacked some of the penetration that really good Cripps games usually display.
[7] Two player managed votes from everyone this week; Patrick Cripps and Tom de Koning.
[8] Of our youngsters, Ollie Hollands had a good defensive game and Motlop showed a lot more than he has of late.
[9] This week our forwards again struggled for impact. When you don't score much after half time, it is hard to get a vote.

AFL 2025 Rd 3: Carlton vs Western Bulldogs
Should have won this one; we were the better team for most of the day. But, being unable to execute when it mattered was enough for us to fail.
Trends:
[1] There were 13 voters this round, which is better than the previous round. :(( Alas, that often happens when we lose, and our 1st three games have been considerably worse than we had hoped. Please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate.
[2] The rating was a 7.92, which is almost a C. Not good enough, but compared to last week infinitely better.
[3] 14 players managed a mention again this week, which isn't bad. Just not good enough yet.
[4] The average vote this week was 27 again. The effort was there, but ... Consistency? Maybe.
[5] 5 players managed 100 votes or more this week. That is also an improvement, but we need more from more if we are going to win against a decent team.
[6] Tom de Koning was this week's winner again, which is disappointing. Not that I dislike Tom, but his opponent was also a significant player (for the third week in a row). On the other hand, Brodie Kemp managed his first top 5 finish in probably his most effective game to date.
[7] Two player managed votes from everyone this week; Kemp and Tom de Koning. Two missed from voter (Weitering and Hewett), while Jack Silvagni missed from two.
[8] Of our youngsters, none really stood out but Kemp. That isn't good enough. One thing to note, was Lewis Young's game: he drifted out of the game, but it was his best in many ways.
[9] While this week's effort was more even, with our forwards being more dangerous, there still wasn't the sort of consistency required to get us over the line.

Brodie Kemp 275 Basically one brilliant game. Nothing in the others.

The way the votes drop off after Silvagni really shows how poor we've been this year. Not enough being done by enough people to make it matter.
AFL 2025 Rd 4: Carlton vs Collingwood
One poor quarter and some more awful forward football.
Trends:
[1] There were 8 voters this round, which is among the lowest in memory. :((
Please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate.
[2] The rating was a 7.22, which is almost a D+. Not good enough.
[3] 13 players managed a mention this week, which is one less than last week. Just not good enough yet.
[4] The average vote this week was 23. Not good enough yet.
[5] 4 players managed 100 votes or more this week. That is one less than last week, but still not too bad. Unfortunately, not all of those players won their position clearly.
[6] George Hewett continues his excellent season by collecting 282 votes. This is his 3rd week in the top 4 vote getters. Saad, Ollie Hollands and Walsh were equal 2nd with 128 votes.
[7] One player managed votes from everyone this week; Hewett. Saad missed from one voter, while Jack Silvagni missed from two.
[8] Of our youngsters, none really stood out but Ollie Hollands. That isn't good enough. Will White was noticed; had he kicked 3 goals instead of 3 points, it would have been more than noticed.
[9] Our defenders and mid continue to get votes, but our forwards aren't.

AFL 2025 Rd 5: Carlton vs West Coast in Adelaide
What a difference a week makes. Granted that we were playing an ordinary side, but we've been ordinary until this game.
Trends:
[1] There were 13 voters this round, which isn't high for a 71 point win.
Please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate and it makes our statistics a lot more reliable.
[2] The rating was a 8.74, which is a comfortable B- and the highest of the year so far. Still, there is room for improvement.
[3] 15 players managed a mention this week, which is an improvement. Not only that, but their contributions were more significant. We had clear winners in a lot of places for a change.
[4] The average vote this week was 30. Easily our best result for the year.
[5] 3 players managed 100 votes or more this week. That is one less than last week, but still not too bad. However, unlike the previous weeks, these guys were serious winners, not just the best of an ordinary lot.
[6] George Hewett continues his excellent season by collecting 353 votes in a Cripps-like performance. This is his 4rd week in the top 4 vote getters. Sam Walsh was 2nd with 346 votes, his best game in a long time.
[7] Two player managed votes from everyone this week; Hewett and Walsh. Nobody else got close.
[8] Of our youngsters, Corey Durdin made the most impact in easily his best game for us to date.
[9] This was a round where all of our lines got some recognition, but our mids were dominant. Nice to see!

A really strong game this round, pounding a team that bothered us in recent times.
Trends:

[4] The average vote this week was 33. Easily our best result for the year.
[5] 4 players managed 100 votes or more this week, which is almost the norm when we win.
[6] George Hewett continues his excellent season by collecting a Judd-like 417 votes in his BOG in a row. This is his 5th week in the top 4 vote getters. Adam Cerra was 2nd with 233 votes, his best game in a long time.
[7] One! player managed votes from everyone this week; Hewett. Nobody else got close, as a lot of votes got shared around.
[8] Most of our youngsters made a good contribution: Carroll got votes, Cottrell got votes, Durdin got votes, Fogarty got votes, Motlop had his best game for the year, Ollie Hollands got votes and Will White got votes.

[5] 7 players managed 100 votes or more this week, which is unheard of. It is the largest score in this category since I've been doing the voting.

Our poorest result of the year. Very disappointing.
Trends:
[1] There were 7 voters this round, which is the lowest I've ever been involved with. But our performance was so bad that it almost justifies the lack of interest. Still,please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate and it makes our statistics a lot more reliable.
[2] The rating was a 5.38, which represents a F+. That is even less than for the Richmond game. :(
[3] 12 players managed a mention this week, which isn't bad. Alas, none of them were in the range of the previous few week's results.
[4] The average vote this week was 18. Our worst result since I've been doing this.
[5] 2 players managed 100 votes or more this week, the total reverse of last week.
[6] Cripps and Hewett were the only 2 to pass 100 votes, with Cripps getting his first BOG for the season. George was 2nd.
[7] Three player managed votes from everyone this week; Cripps, Hewett and Haynes!
[8] Again, our youngsters made some contribution this week, led by the Hollands bothers.

AFL 2025 Rd 9: Carlton vs St. Kilda/color]
A considerable improvement over the previous round, but there still remains a lot of room for improvement.
That said, we stood up when we had to and he managed to get through 4 quarters.
Trends:
[1] There were 13 voters this round, which is close to normal this season. Still,please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate and it makes our statistics a lot more reliable.
[2] The rating was a 9.28, which represents a B+. It is pretty good, everything considered.
[3] 16 players managed a mention this week, which is pretty good.Also, our better players were significantly better this round compared to the Adelaide disaster.
[4] The average vote this week was 30. Much better!
[5] 52 players managed 100 votes or more this week. Again, much improved.
[6] Harry McKay was BOG this round with 271 votes, followed by Jack Silvagni with 200. If this doesn't show how significant H can be, than little will.
[7] OnlyOne player managed votes from everyone this week; H! Jack missed from 1 voter, as did Patrick Cripps. Weitering missed from 2 voters.

We controlled the game for 3 quarters, but couldn't get the job done. :( Considering how ordinary Sydney have been since then, this was definitely one that got away from us.
Trends:
[1] There were 10 voters this round, which is close to normal this season for a loss. Still, I'd hoped that more people would care enough to vote. 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 6.57, which represents a D-, shows how disappointed the voters were with this performance.
[3] 13 players managed a mention this week, which is reasonable. Alas, our main vote getters were not as significant as they were last week.
[4] The average vote this week was 21. It could have been much better if we'd held on in that last quarter.
[5] 3 players managed 100 votes or more this week. Very much a step backwards
[6] Adam Cerra was BOG this round with 194 votes, followed by Patrick Cripps with 187.

AFL 2025 Rd 13: Carlton vs Drug Cheats
A win over the Drug Cheats is always a positive, even if we weren't that impressive.
Trends:
[1] There were 12 voters this round, which is not that great for a win over one of our traditional foes. 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 8.14, which represents a C, shows how disappointed the voters were even with a win.
[3] 16 players managed a mention this week, which is the sort of thing we get when we win these days.
[4] The average vote this week was 27.
[5] 5 players managed 100 votes or more this week. A real step forward.
[6] Tom de Koning was BOG again this round, for the 3rd time this year, with 217 votes, followed by Jack Silvagni with 190, George Hewett (183), Sam Walsh and Ollie Hollands.
[7] No player managed votes from everyone this week.
[8] Again, our youngsters made some contribution this week, led by Ollie Hollands, Jesse Motlop and Cooper Lord.
[9] This was a round where our mids and defenders shone out. Our forwards, not so much.

AFL 2025 Rd 14: Carlton vs West Coast
The first quarter and 3/4's was excellent. After that, it was a slog.
Trends:
[1] There were 10 voters this round, which is worse than we usually get for a loss. A sign of things to come? Or just because the game was interstate. It took me a long time to see it all, as I was in hospital for the whole game. :( It sort of described my weekend!

[2] The rating was a 7.77, which represents a C-, shows how disappointed the voters were even with a win. Considering how they felt in the next 2 weeks ...
[3] 14 players managed a mention this week, which is a little low for modern wins. We often get 16 or more when we actually play 4 quarters.
[4] The average vote this week was 25, which is about as low as a win ever goes.
[5] 3 players managed 100 votes or more this week. It might have been more if more people had voted, but it does show the malaise we've experienced this season.
[6] George Hewett was BOG again this round, for the 4th time this year, with 326 votes, followed by Adam Cerra with 186 and Ollie Hollands with 132. Ollie has 2 top 3 finishes so far this season.
[7] One player managed votes from everyone this week, George Hewett. Ollie missed from 1 voter, while the rest were all over the place.
[8] Again, our youngsters made some contribution this week, led by Ollie Hollands and Jaxon Binns.
[9] This was a round where our mids and defenders shone out. Our forwards, not so much. I much rather an even performance, but our forwards have struggled this year.

AFL 2025 Rd 15: Carlton vs North Melbourne
Another embarrassment, and we still almost won. Just goes to show how poor we were for so much of the game.
Trends:
[1] There were 6 voters this round, a new low that I hope never to see again. Our performance was so bad that it almost justifies the lack of interest. Still,please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate and it makes our statistics a lot more reliable, especially as I've got the spreadsheet behaving again..
[2] The rating was a 5.50, which represents a F+ or an E-. That is on par with the Richmond game. :(
[3] 14 players managed a mention this week, which isn't bad. Alas, none of them were in the range of the previous few week's results as even our best players were overshadowed by North players.
[4] The average vote this week was 18. Our equal worst result since I've been doing this.
[5] 2 players managed 100 votes or more this week, which says so much about how we were dominated by North.
[6] McGovern and Hewett were the only 2 to pass 100 votes, with McGovern getting his first BOG for the season. George was 2nd.
[7] No player managed votes from everyone this week. Nobody really stood out.
[8] Again, our youngsters made some contribution this week, led by Hollands.
[9] This was a round where none of our lines stood out. Our mids did best, but that wasn't saying a lot.

AFL 2025 Rd 16: Carlton vs Port Adelaide
Another embarrassment. What more can I say?
Trends:
[1] There were 9 voters this round, which is a 50% improvement over last week. Pity opur game wasn't the same. Our performance was so bad that it almost justifies the lack of interest. Still,please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate and it makes our statistics a lot more reliable, especially as I've got the spreadsheet behaving again..
[2] The rating was a 4.96, which represents a F. A new and unwelcome low. :(
[3] 13 players managed a mention this week, which isn't bad. Alas, none of them were match winning.
[4] The average vote this week was 16. A new low.
[5] 3 players managed 100 votes or more this week, which is better than last week. Hewett, Hollands and Haynes managed it this week.
[6] George Hewett managed yet another BOG for us, followed closely by Nick Haynes and Ollie Hollands.
[7] 2 players, Haynes and Hewett, managed votes from everyone this week. Ollie missed from one voter.
[8] Again, our youngsters made some contribution this week, led by Hollands.
[9] This was a round where none of our lines stood out. Our mids did best, but that wasn't saying a lot. I hate writing this!

Another embarrassment.
Trends:
[1] There were 8 voters this round, which is still far from ideal. Unfortunately, our performance was so bad that it almost justifies the lack of interest. Still,please do vote, win, lose or draw: it is something we appreciate and it makes our statistics a lot more reliable, especially as I've got the spreadsheet behaving again..
[2] The rating was a 5.71, which represents a E-. It isn't good, but it wasn't as bad as last week. :(
[3] 17 players managed a mention this week, which is actually very good, but most were bit votes for guys who showed something, rather than for clear winners.
[4] The average vote this week was 19, which is merely poor. We weren't that embarrassing in the bad old days of a few years back.
[5] 2 players managed 100 votes or more this week, which is one worse than last week. Williams and Ollie Hollands managed it this time.
[6] Zac Williams managed his 1st BOG for us with 264 votes and he didn't even manage 4 quarters of football, followed by Ollie Hollands.
[7] 1 players, Zac Williams, managed votes from everyone this week. Ollie missed from one voter.
[8] Again, our youngsters made some contribution this week, led by Hollands and Cowan.
[9] This was a round where none of our lines stood out. Our mids did best, but that wasn't saying a lot. I hate writing this!
