Carlton vs. Geelong
Still not a lot of voting: I guess a LOT of people were not all that happy. Having been there myself, I can understand how frustrating it was.

Gibbs managed one of largest scores I have ever seen on this site. Mind you, his game was special.
Nice to see Carrots in the voting again too.

Is it disturbing to anyone that Ed Curnow is sitting 5th in the B+F despite only playing 4.5 games before breaking his leg/hip?

Along the same lines as Kruddler, it's disturbing that four players are doing all the heavy lifting - in our opinion of course!

On the other side of the coin, Doc, Menzel and Buckley sitting in the top 10 reads pretty well to me.

Yes, but that same side of the coin means that there is a whole lot of money caught up in here that are not performing up to standard.

Fair call Krudd, but:

[1] Thomas: he was always going to be a slow starter to the year. If he is at the same level this time next year, then we are screwed.
[2] Walker: something of a disappointment, but still a contributor.
[3] Garlett: the big fail in this cohort, The Prince has not played anywhere near his best and could not dominate in the VFL. At the moment, he would be the biggest disaster of our year so far.
[4] Waite: probably not behind Garlett by much in the disaster stakes. We needed a real forward target and Jarrod has not delivered.
[5] Carrazzo: coming back from long term injury, it was always going to be a slow start for Carrots. That he has managed 140 votes in 2 weeks is actually a very positive step.

More of a worry is that
(a) Broke McLean is behind Sam Rowe, and Broke has not been one of our poorest performers.
(b) Hendo has as many votes as he does, considering he has had a very poor season.
(c) Robbo has scored so poorly, as he is a measure of how our team is feeling.
(d) Zac Tuohy has barely had a vote. After last year he was expected to be a much better performer.

Our voting system does give a decent indication of how the team is faring, and it does look like too much is being left to too few too often.

He has been playing better in recent weeks and he did a good job on Bruest for most of the night. However, he is a long way from his best form.
In some ways he is forced into a tighter 1 on 1 role than he prefers as we have not had a small defender who is quick and tight down there with him.

Round 14: Carlton loose to GWS in Sydney

What can I say? It was a lousy day to follow the Blues as we fall to a team that Richmond defeated by around 100 points. I find that bizarre, as Richmond have won fewer games than we have. However, that does not make us play better or them play worse. The result: close again, but just not worth that much.

It also scared off the voters in droves. This has been the smallest turnout since I have inherited the job of collating the votes. Only 7 people bothered to vote.

That makes me ask questions: have we lost interest in the Jim Park Medal? Will the voting output improve if we start winning? or is it going to get worse if our performances do not improve significantly, playing kids or not?
These are question that need to be addressed, but not here. This is my chance to rave and rant and analyze the voting.

Speaking of votes:
Robinson, Mitch 280
Gibbs, Bryce 242
Menzel, Troy 163
Everitt, Andrejs 84
Thomas, Dale 70
Judd, Chris 47
McLean, Brock 37
Tuohy, Zach 14
Rowe, Sam 9
White, Simon 9
Jamison, Michael 9
Waite, Jarrad 9
Curnow, Edward 5

With a very low rating for the game, the low voter turnout really resulted in very few votes. Robbo, as leader of the week, would normally be expected to poll around 400 votes. On a really good week it can get close to 600 votes. Not this week.
Also very much the case was the big difference between us, the voters, and how the match committee saw the same game. Waite got dropped, yet I gave him a (small) mention. I thought Hendo was worse, but he survived for another week.
Certainly both of these guys are so far down on their performance compared to last season that it is hard to recognize them as the same players.

And now for the Progressive Votes:
2202 - Murphy, Marc (0)
2147 - Gibbs, Bryce (0)
1580 - Simpson, Kade (0)
1118 - Yarran, Chris (0)
696 - Curnow, Edward (0)
653 - Menzel, Troy (0)
522 - Warnock, Robert (0)
497 - Everitt, Andrejs (0)
469 - Buckley, Dylan (0)
454 - Henderson, Lachie (0)
451 - Robinson, Mitch (0)
441 - Docherty, Sam (0)
400 - Rowe, Sam (0)
354 - Judd, Chris (0)
346 - Carrazzo, Andrew (0)
324 - McLean, Brock (0)
293 - Ellard, David (0)
292 - Casboult, Levi (0)

165 - Garlett, Jeff (0)
161 - Waite, Jarrad (0)
114 - Bell, Tom (0)
55 - Tuohy, Zach (0)
39 - Lucas, Kane (0)
37 - Armfield, Dennis (0)
17 - Scotland, Heath (0)

Gibbs has moved up on Murphy and could well overtake him this weekend, if his run of form continues. Simmo is in 3rd place, but he is stagnating after one of his worst ever games. Yazz is well clear in 4th, but things are pretty tight for 5th spot.
Near the tail of the ladder, Walker, Garlett, Waite, Bell, Tuohy, Lucas and Armfield have garnered votes, but nothing compared to their efforts in recent seasons. Scotland still has a presence, even though he retired months ago.
15 players on the list have not managed a single vote, even though the team has been crippled with injuries. Of those 15, 11 have not played a senior game this year.
This year's statistics do not make good reading.

Crash, unless I see the whole game I do not think it right to give votes. I suspect that may also apply to others, hence the low voter turn out.

Likewise. Never give votes unless I watch the entire game (at least once).
