I was going to try polling "Who had more impact for the Tigers in 2006, Richo or Tivendale?" after the JD medal standings, but I thought this poll would be trickier. ;D I'll be interested to see the results.

Who is bigger, Aaron Sandilands or Aaron Davey?

Well Rosy, my thought processess went something like this. I thought that the Jack Dyer Medal polling should reflect the player who has the most impact in that year (i.e. the BEST and Fairest). Given that Tiv finished above Richo, I thought I would test the apparent anomoly in the voting and ask the punters what they thought. Then I thought that asking who was better in 2006, Richo or Tiv, would be a bit of a no-brainer and that PRE's would ovwerwhelmingly vote Richo. So then, felling hungover, stupid and sarcastic, I thought I'd highlight this point by drawing the sandilands/davey comparison. If you dont think its funny, ditch it, I wont be in the least worried ;D
Not at all gollywog. I'm just sad Tivva's still coping it from his detractors despite his effort, much as I'd love more than anything to see Richo take Jack home.
The poll is too hard for me to decide. Davey and Sandilands are a bit close for me. If you put Bell or Rodan I might have had a better idea. :devilsmiley

Then vote undecided. I'm not so much detracting from Tiv (Although he is definately in my 'trade' column, I TRY wherever possible not to denigrate tiger players), as pointing out the inequities in individual awards in the team game.

Maybe because Tiv is in the top 10 at Richmond in the four stats that have most bearing on ladder position, inside 50's uncontested pos, disposals and long kicks. I though Tiv had a pretty good year and apart from being shut down badly by Sydney was consistent. TW actually made comment that Sydney focus on shutting down inside 50 players so its not surprising.

I agree Tiv didnt have a bad year BJ. While i am not a stats man (an ecology lecturer once said to me "torture your data with stats and eventually they will confess), wasnt Richo up there in the league for contested marks again? For me, this is THE stat. I wasnt saying Tiv had a crap year, I was saying Richo had a better one. Put obliquely, Sandilands is about 45 k.g bigger than Davey.

This poll is ridiculous. Sandilands is way bigger than Davey. Davey is a nippy little rover and Sandilands is really bloody tall, the tallest, a bees *smile* off seven bloody foot. Geez, we have some fair dinkum fruitcakes on PRE.
whose bigger?
dunno but my wife says men are all the same height.
when they're laying down.
but she won't tell me how she knows this.
