anzac medal

Post: # 1325236Post terry smith rules »

I'm sorry how does Roo not win this

149 dream team points ,35 more than any other player and 50 more than hanneberry

I know the points are not everything but ...........

I'm not sure a CHF can play a better game? In slippery conditions???

That's bizarre ..... Hannebury wasn't even their best IMO.

In those conditions..........considering his game.................ROO was best on ground and should have won the medal.

They are giving him a consolation prize for not winning the Norm Smith.

If it works the same as the Anzac Medal in the MCG game then it isn't awarded to the best player on the ground. It is awarded to the player who best represents the ANZAC spirit and generally to a player on the winning team. Dan was hard at it all day and played for the winning side. He's as tough as they come, worthy winner.

obviously if we pinched the game then Roo would have won it

What does the result have to do with individual games.

Without Roo we would lost by 10 goals, perhaps not scored?

He was BOG by 20%

If Collingwood won the drawn GF by a point... Who would have been BOG?

Hannerberry was BOG

You must struggle to read. The medal isn't for the best player on the ground. And yes, generally medals go to a player on the winning side

In your opinion maybe. Roo could have gone off at 3 qtr time and still been BOG.

apparently Hannerberry and Parker tied on six

Roo on 5

One voter (Wayne Schwass) did not give Roo a vote in a 3-2-1

Hannerberry was chosen a deciding vote.......do not know who that person was.

Assessing it now I thought Parker deserved it more than Hanneberry with 2 goals and 25 touches.
But seriously - I hardly noticed Hanneberry?! Roo was everywhere. Really like Watters playing roo around the ground, perhaps trying to see the forward line 'life after roo'!

Wayne Schwass is a moron as Riewoldt was in the best 3 players on the ground. Hannerberry did kill us

In the true spirit the bloody medal should go to the gutsiest player on the losing team. That was roo!

Schwass used to play for Shitney. It does look quite ridiculous when a player is obviously in the top 3 on the ground but doesn't get a vote from a particular voter. Gram in 09 was the same, some dick head didn't even have him in the votes which cost him the NS

Cordy is a swans fan as is Schwass. I have been at a mates house when Cordy came round to watch the swans play in their colours. This guys dad played for the Swans in the old days and has mates round to watch them packed with melbourne based swans fans. He is definitely not impartial- big fan. I played basket ball against him too and he was a massive c**k head.

Schwass is an arse sucking swans fan- like Hall he's pro Sydney over his other club.
