But Lyon made a terrible call in choosing to play a sick Zac Dawson over a fit Max Hudghton. An even worse call to play Raph Clarke (not a basher - just felt he would be a liability in a tight match against a team who applied great pressure).

Then, in the game, we missed countless scoring opportunities. Our poor skills came to haunt us at the wrong time.

In 2010, we were cooked at half-time and lucky to be in it - and only ground our way back because of the group's inert belief and Collingwood's frazzling on the big stage.
Your joking arent you about Max and Zac.
No, you're joking, aren't you?
Zac had a very good game
Oh my goodness. I remember counting up to double figures individual errors that he made in positioning, judgement, decision-making and skill errors.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

They must have felt embarressed for him when they gave him player of the finals series. Max couldnt get out of his own way by finals time and then to play him after a 4 week break would have been suicide.

Is it confirmed he was the only person who voted for that award?
