2021 Rd 7 V Cowboys: Fans' Choice Player of the Year

Post by greeneyed »

2021 Fans' Choice Player of the Year

Image

The Fans' Choice Player of the Year has been awarded since 2004 with an impressive roll call of winners, including Ruben Wiki, Alan Tongue, Terry Campese, Shaun Fensom, Jarrod Croker, Josh Hodgson, Jordan Rapana and Nick Cotric. In 2020, there was an unprecedented four way tie, with Josh Papalii, Jack Wighton, Elliott Whitehead and George Williams sharing the award. An individual trophy, sponsored by The Greenhouse, is presented to the winning player at season's end.

We have built a great tradition with this award at The GH, and you can be part of it!

Who will be the winner in 2021? It is you who will decide!

In the Fans' Choice Player of the Year, you can register your votes here for the top performed Raiders player, on a 3-2-1 basis. The rules are you can only allocate 6 points or less each round, and can split them any way you like, but no "half" points are permitted and no player can be awarded more than 3 points.

So, you can give the best player 3 points, the second best 2 and the third best 1, in the traditional way. Or you can give two players 3 points each. Or you can give 3 players 2 points each etc. No half points are permitted.

At sometime after Monday each week, all the points awarded by everyone to each player each round will be aggregated and then the top three players will be awarded 3, 2, 1 points.

Only votes made by Raiders fans in posts on this thread on The Greenhouse and in response to the post on The Greenhouse Facebook Group will count.

In this thread, feel free to speculate on who will be the player of the round prior to the match.

But 3-2-1 votes can only be made AFTER completion of the match in this thread.

Me too.

A few guys were unfortunately very poor.

Cannot see how CHN is in the top three, eight runs for 60m, five tackle breaks which produced 22 post contact metres, 34 tackles, four missed tackles, 90 per cent tackle efficiency and an error. We really missed Hudson Young... only given 19 minutes.

People saw what I saw
Finally there was an edge out there who knew how to run lines, challenge the line and create space
CHN was good.

Young certainly needs more minutes than that though. No question about that

Thought the team looked better for CHN's inclusion on the right edge and more time is needed for his partnership with Williams to develop, but definitely, Young is at least a 40 minute player.

People were complaining last week with five missed tackles credited to Hudson. Enough to be dropped! Ignoring that it was a defence disrupted by injury. This week... four missed tackles and a horror first touch error and CHN is getting points. It’s not in any way reasonable.

You would say that though given where you stand on CHN.
If it's not reasonable for you, you dont have to vote that way. But this clear and obvious attempt to influence votes is pretty ordinary

Which brings me to my votes:

3 - CHN
1 - Sutton
1 - Starling
1 - Rapana

Why shouldn't I express an opinion? All sorts of people express their opinion on this all the time.
