I'd be curious to know what the current and ex players think of this award these days.
It really feels like the logies now, based on popularity not actual skill/performance

Well done to the NRL for making it even more dodgy then it was , now that is an achievement!

In terms of making it better my only thought would be the match review people do it.
They are technically supposed to be non biased AND have to watch all games closely

Dylan Brown gets a point?!

Matt Timoko doesn’t get six?!

We should be told who these judges are.

[reptar]

Which one of the judges didn't watch the game?

[Finchy]

Haha how do two judges watch that and award their 3-2-1 to 6 different players. How does an Eels player get a point for that dross? We didn’t get any points despite leading 18-0 last week, how do they get any this week?

[NoMan]

If not for the well documented incompetence of the judges that Brown point would be very suspicious.

[greeneyed]

That’s why the identities of the judges has to be transparent.

[BJ]

Funny how last year raiders would get beat by just a few points and not get a single Dally M point for a player, but we absolutely flog a team and their players get points??????

[Ruben Daley]

I love Tapine and he was good last night but how the hecks does he get the same points as Timoko? Timoko massacred the Eels. If Manu or Crichton or Best or Staggs did that, there’d be six articles on Fox Sports.

[Peter]

Hang on…so one judge did not give Timoko a single point? Wow.

[Finchy]

I'd say whoever gave a point to Dylan Brown also gave the 3 and 2 to Tapine and Smithies, as they clearly didn't watch the game. The 3-2-1 to Timoko, Savage, and Strange is far more sensible.

[Finchy]

‘Farce’: Uproar over ‘ridiculous’ Eels playmaker’s Dally M vote

The NRL is under fire again over another Dally M medal voting “farce”. Rugby league commentators on Monday morning were blowing up after it emerged Dylan Brown was awarded one vote despite the Eels being torn apart by the Raiders in Canberra on Sunday night.

The Dally Ms are cooked.

They don't watch or at least don't pay any attention to the games and then just pick the names they know. It's the only explanation I can think of.

[BJ]

Yep. One judge rated Dylan Brown above Timoko last night.

Probably also thinks Glenn McGrath was a better bat than Don Bradman.

Or the most likely scenario is Timoko’s name got buried at the bottom of the hat when he pulled the names out.

I think you’re right. It’s clear a large percentage of people in the media and others involved in the game like this simply don’t watch games. And when they watch games, watch without a critical eye.

I don’t understand it. I watch 4-5 games a week around my job and family commitments. This is their job.

I get that, but you did not even need to watch last nights game to know Tomoko, or any other Raider, had a better game than Brown.

That’s true. You’d get it pretty much spot-on if you read the stats and watched the three-minute highlights.

That's what they do.

Let it go, the Dally Ms are complete rubbish.

[Billy Walker]

So no arguments that the Dylan Brown thing is madness, but in terms of Raiders ratings, the ABC call team had Morgan Smithies the best raider on the ground by quite a distance. It was Timoko and Strange getting the 2 and 1 behind him I think I recall. Not saying Timoko didn’t have a blinder or that Savage and Tarps weren’t great, but not all judges see these things the same.

Alan Tongue giving a hard working Lock the 3 points is the same as Blocker always choosing a prop as man of the match.

Was it Tongue or Sam Williams who gave them out? Whoever it was, they had much love for Morgan!

Scrap it or get the 3 match officials to vote on it.

The media doing it is a load of ****

Dally M judges eyes must be painted on.

[Hong Kong Raider]

How can Tapine miss getting any Dally M points ? What a farce.

[NoMan]

Yeah, he really shouldve got 6 but none is ridiculous.

[dubby]

How can Tapine miss getting any Dally M points ? What a farce.

Its ridiculous

[BJ]

Tapine not getting a point sets a new bar for Dally M voting incompetence. And that’s saying something.

NRL and the broader non Daily Telegraph rugby league media need to really kick up a stink about what is meant to be our premier player of the year award.

[The Nickman]

Can we just lock this thread?
