Jack Dyer Medal 2019

[TigerFlag2017]

I was surprised Houli, AA player, didn't make top 5

Was stoked to see him equal 10th. Reward for an excellent season.

Sorted by votes per game basis.

A few surprises: Jack, Cotch, Nank ranked quite low (injury interrupted I know)

Baker rates highly, much higher than Short and Broad

Ross quite low, perhaps explains the decision not to go with him in the granny

Ross was off in 1st quarter of 1 game and another he only played half a game so his average took a hit but yeah still a bit surprising. Not surprised with Nank, he was struggling with injury and playing short game time a lot. Caddy surprised me a bit for average. Castagna and Ellis take big drops when looking at averages. No real love for the likes of Short, Butler and Broad. for me Prestia was the stand out this year for consistency and impact across the season so justly deserved it. Dusty treated quite harshly I thought. He's held to a much higher standard and his relatively poor defensive side bites him.

What Round did Martin captain?

 

[AngryAnt]

Dimma had a few too many before his speech

yep, good on him! If anyone deserves a few beers now it's Dimma Hardwick

 

[seven]

They were much worse! Mum used to love KB because he was one of the few players who could string a sentence together.

My dad wishes there was the “man of all seasons” calendar back then.
Would have looked good in the shed.

 

[Mr Brightside]

The one thing I took from the evening was it’s highly unlikely there will be any kind of premiership hangover, I got the feel the club don’t see this as reaching the summit, it’s as if it’s just another brick in the wall

 

[year of the tiger]

Interesting Nank (2 fewer games), Soldo and Balta (also fewer games) all polled around the same mark with Chol a bit further back.

Suggests the 2 ruck combo was right and that Balta isn’t that far behind either.

 

[Spirit of Jack]

Based on the age profile and votes the 'next Ellis' (apart from K-Mac who has already been floated) is Short. A lot of games, not many votes - I can see him being in and out of the side next year and then getting a better offer after 2020. My fear is Caddy could be another but I would hope not - I love his game.
