i had Fas and Beams in my top 5 GB medal votes.
Surprised anyone from North got recognised.
H was a surprise to me as I did not capture him in my Pies top 5 yet he rated very highly
AFL website has Pendles on 19. Is that incorrect?

Incorrect. Pendles has a 10, a 9 and a 3.
-------------------------
Interesting breakdown.
We don't know which coach gave their 5 votes to.
5 & 3 to two of the 8 voters and 4 & 4 to the other.
2 & 1 to Pendles.
2 to Cunnington and 1 to Frosty.

I didn't think Beams was close to top 5. Herry had a ripper.
Originally I did have Fas as our second best, but realised that it was an overestimation. I agree with the coaches, Sidebottom, Cloke, Lumumba and Pendles were all better. Probably Swan too. Wouldn't have had any Roos in the top 5.

If Beamer wasn't even close to your top 5, meaning he was somewhere around 8th. best or worse, what's he gotta do to get your attention ?
25 disposals, 8 tackles (the most for us), no frees against and 2 goals.
Harry didn't lay a single tackle.

^^Not close was probably overstating it  . Would have had him about 7th or 8th. He had quite a good game, but we had a lot of good players. For the record, I'd have had (and note that I weight first half performance greater than second half, given the game was just about decided by then):
1. Sidebottom
2. Lumumba
3. Cloke
4. Pendles
5. Swan
6. Fas
7. Beams

Ink has never rated Beams anywhere near as high as we do. For no other reason it seems other than he isn't one of his favourites. Ink & I have had many little run ins with regards to this over time. |

i think people get seduced by the numbers from beams. even though he gets the ball i think he butchers it as much as any player we have. i am with you on this ink man.
also, judgement on players should be made when the game is up for grabs and the impact and influence players have at that time.

^^This isn't true. I only didn't rate him early in his career  . Now he's definitely a quality player. Saturday wasn't one of his best though, without the goals it would have been a fairly ordinary day in comparison to the rest of the team.

76% efficiency says he did just fine. - 8 tackles also says he worked hard. I don't think he was BOG either but saying he butchers it is a stretch. |

Ahhh - So he must be the 7th or perhaps 9th worst player in the league?
Stevie J is #1 - What a hack. Cotchin @ 3 - trade him
Beams last full season he won a Copeland. I think he has some runs on the board JW. I reckon he is a gun. |

I know Inky - I was kind of having a lend of you. I remember the debate well. |

Surest of our mid fielders for set shot kicking for goal (one knock i'd have on Pendles), kicking another 2 on the weekend. i think his disposal is generally pretty good and hard fought too. Provides run, does the hard stuff and finishes off when up forward. I rate him very highly.

When Beams starts kicking multiple goals you know he and the team are playing well.
