Straight after last years count I was going to put some coin on him as he polled really well even though he missed most of the season. But I just don't trust his shoulders and don't think he will play the full season. He is definitely one to watch though and the umpires love him
He polled 14 from 9 last year and was on track to win, his shoulders are a massive problem and wil have votes stolen by Barlow/Mundy/Pav. After his first round he could well have shot out to $20's... worth a cheeky 10'a!
NB I think this thread should keep us updated with contenders aslong as we have someone tallying the votes we think the players will get.
I'll keep a tally and post it after every round. Votes for Round 1 we have: Adelaide v Essendon 3. J Watson 2. B Howlett 1. C Dempsey Fremantle v West Coast 3. M Barlow 2. D Mundy 1. D Pearce Richmond v Carlton 3. T Cotchin 2. B Gibbs 1. B Deledio Bulldogs v Brisbane 3. R Griffen 2. W Minson 1. T Liberatore Sydney v GWS 3. K Jack 2. J Kennedy 1. S Mumford Gold Coast v St Kilda 3. G Ablett 2. C Dixon 1. J Geary Melbourne v Port Adelaide 3. H Hartlett 2. K Cornes 1. J Schultz Collingwood v Kangaroos 3. S Pendlebury 2. A Swallow 1. T Cloke Geelong v Hawthorn 3. J Selwood 2. S Mitchell 1. A Mackie If everyone wants to put their votes in for any game they watch and then I'll tally them up
Only caught bits and pieces of last nights game but after reading reviews and reports have come up with: 3. J Riewoldt 2. T Cotchin 1. B McEvoy Cotchin had a monster 2nd half. Others who watched the full game will have a better idea though
Collingwood v Carlton 3. J Elliot 2. ? 1. ? Not sure on the 2 and 1 as there weren't too many standout performances in my eyes Il post some votes for other games tomorrow
