Both coaches gave Fisher (4+2) and Acres(4+3) votes but only 1 coach thought Newman (5) was worthy. The other gave top votes to Cripps (5) and left out Newman altogether
![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)
The fact that Wood and Wilkie are on 1 each means that both Cripps and Newman must get 5 each. It's the only way it works.
Cripps had 24 touches. 5 X i50's and 4 Score involvements
Newman had 35 touches. 6 X i50's and 4 Score involvements.
Granted Cripps had a few more contested possessions but Newman plays HBF, so the fact that Newman had so many i50's is significant imo.
Is Vossy pumping up a Carlton player (the highest profile bloke on his list - the captain and Brownlow medalalist) so it's good for Carlton fans and sponsors to see him high up on the leaderboard?
Does Lyon perhaps think Cripps was more influential than all of Newman, Acres, Weitering and Fisher...or ...did Lyon stuff up and forgot who wore jumper number 24?
Maybe RTB couldn't give a stuff about coaches votes and he doesn't even know who Nic Newman is
