Re: Player of the Year-Rd 22 vs Saints

3. Newman - lots of the ball; just gotta watch the disposal errors and poor decisions off HB.
2. King - really starting to like this kid. Attacks the footy, runs hard and uses it well. Hope it doesn't fall away.
1. Thursfield - thought he did a good job on Gehrig despite the 5 gls. Ran off well. Has plenty of smarts.

Mentions to Pettifer, Tambling and Pattison.

PRE Player of the Year 2007 - AWARDS THREAD

Well its time to have a look at the breakdown of the votes in the PRE Player of the Year Awards.

Over the 22 rounds of the season the PRE Player of the Year had 1281 ballots cast from 189 members.

First of all recognition of those PRE members who voted in every round of the 2007 season:

:clap

:clap

Now, some definitions to understand all of the categories listed:


Total Votes The total number of votes accrued throughout the 2007 season.
Rounds Played The number of games played in the 2007 season.
Average Votes/Rounds Played Total votes accrued / total games played
Highest Ranking (Round(s)) The highest ranking achieved and the round(s) that ranking was held.
Best Round (Votes) The round in which the player obtained the highest number of votes, which opponent the Tigers played in that round and the number of votes obtained.
Normalised Rank A ranking that normalises the votes to take out the ‘number of voters’ factor. This ranking prevents players obtaining votes in ‘popular’ weeks from gaining an advantage. This is not official and just for your information.
Richmond ‘Brownlow’ Votes (Ranking) This is also unofficial and for your information. It consists of a 3-2-1 voting system each week. This ranking tends to benefit players who are consistently in the top 3 players of the week.
Most Votes From The PRE member(s) who supplied the player with the most votes and how many.

Now without further ado, let the countdown commence:

After spending the first half of the season on the long term injury list, this first year recruit managed to play the second half of the season with the Coburg reserves and seniors and may make his debut with Richmond in 2008.

An injury ruined season for Trent led to many of the ruck woes for Richmond and his eventual retirement at the end of the 2007 season.

Another experienced player whose season was wrecked by chronic injury. Rayzor hung up the boots at the end of the 2007 season after failing to reach fitness throughout the season.

Mark’s season was over before it started with another ACL injury to add to his horror run of injury over the last few years. Let’s hope this Jack Dyer Medallist can bounce back in 2008.

A development year for Andrew as he played an injury interrupted season with the Burgers. Lets hope he can continue that development in 2008.

Taz spent his first year on the rookie list playing for the Burgers. I would think he will be around for a second rookie year in 2008.

A player who looked on the verge of senior selection, but soft-tissue injuries at inopportune stages of the season prevented his debut. His good size and great foot skills should see Cass debut for the Tiges early in 2008.

Brent struggled with injury and form throughout 2007 and only managed a single game with the seniors, failing to poll any votes in the PRE Player of the Year. Time will tell whether Brent survives the chop to play on in 2008.

Gus was elevated off the rookie list due to the long-term injury problems in our ruck division. He didn’t manage to poll any votes in the PRE Player of the Year in the two games he played with the seniors, but displayed some promise and massive courage to play out his second game on a broken ankle.

After being traded to Richmond from Geelong at the end of 2006, Kent was unable to make an impact for the side in the 3 games he played, didn’t poll a vote in the PRE Player of the Year and retired at the end of the 2007 season.

Danny struggled with form throughout the season and only managed three senior appearances, a bit of a worry at his stage of development. He failed to poll a vote in the PRE Player of the Year, but can hopefully survive to play a better season in 2008, displaying some of the skills that he has displayed in the past.

JON was another of the younger players who struggled to make an impact at the senior level, only managing three senior appearances and failing to poll any votes in the PRE Player of the Year. Let’s hope this high draft pick can improve some of the apparent deficiencies in his game and cement a spot in the side in 2008.

Paddy Bowden struggled with injury and form in 2007 and only managed 3 senior appearances and no votes in the PRE Player of the Year. He will need to hope for a better run of fitness in 2008, however his size and versatility should keep him safe this year.
