Deluka Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 The fact that a bloke with 20 goals and 5 assists is sitting equal 5th says what we’re probably all too scared to say, that being that our takes aren’t very good... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or that we've become complacent with excellence, similar to Bart in his second season. We became accustomed to a very a high standard week in week out.

Not at all..... MoM isn’t always about goals and assist. Some people just standard vote for goal scorers whilst others analyse the game and vote the stand out player in their positions. Jmac has had couple of poor games throughout the season, sometimes invisible and some poor games he scored. Has been a bit inconsistent on MoM level. I would say 3 to 5 is where he belongs. Curtis delivers every week, played every game. We can only vote once per game! Edited May 2, 2021 by Mr MO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the one vote system is a bit flawed. It means if you want to vote for someone different as a reward to them playing well then you have to do it at the expense of the mom player. For example against Victory Maclaren got 23 votes, Tilio 4, Nabbout 2 and Luna 1. Maclaren should probably have been a universal mom, so if you could assign 2 and then 1 vote it would mean Maclaren could be a universal mom, and then people could recognize the other high performers with their additional vote. I realise it is also somewhat flawed (why stop at 2 players, why not 3, no 4, no rank all 11, etc.) but it would be a better way to reward a universal mom while still allowing a bit of variety and other recognition.

More work for you no doubt, but I suspect you might obtain a better overall result. The cumulative MOTM is not necessarily the MOTS. I was thinking last night that we have Curtis Good, who has played every match for the full 90 and has been the glue that has held the defence together and been virtually flawless in doing so. I'm actually surprised that he's running second, and he may ultimately finish first, but in terms of MOTS he would be my choice so far.

It's something we can definitely look at, I'm the first to admit that this voting system isn't perfect at all. The only thing about getting cumulative votes from people is that when we win we get alot more voters than if we lose, and it can make voting very skewed towards games that more people see etc Very open to ideas though how it can be improved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eg. 3 people vote: 3. Maclaren, 2. Good, 1. Glover, 3. Maclaren 2. Luna 1. Colakovski, 3. Good, 2. Maclaren, 1. Glover Maclaren with the 8 votes total is the highest vote getter and gets the 3. Good with 5 gets the 2. And Glover and Luna draw with 2 each so split the 1. Colakovski only gets 1 and thus misses out on an actual vote, but still receives recognition from that poster and gets his name in the mix. 3. Maclaren 2. Good 1/2 Each. Glover and Luna. This is the system an AFL forum I frequent uses and it generally works really well with a lot of names in the mix.

Nate Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 I'm in favour of a 3-2-1 system too. Great to see Metcalfe and Good getting recognition but equally, it's embarrassing to see Maclaren with only 7 votes and Griffiths with only 4 this late into the season.

At the moment I see the flaw as it being an "all or nothing" vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jovan Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 This system is only worth discussing when we are winning. Many games back in the day nobody deserved 1 vote, let alone 3, and the total voters could be counted on one hand. So I say leave it as is and post your thoughts as recognition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck finding a 3 2 1 when we lose at home to Newcastle. I’m also not completely convinced that we are “getting the wrong result”. Football is a game of opinions after all (fwiw this season I seem mostly in the minority voting wise, which doesn’t bother me particularly) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atkinson and Nabbout have been great, but both have missed too many games. That leaves (to me): Noone, Maclaren, Metcalfe, Good and Jamieson. I’d vote for Good but I expect Maclaren to win that particular vote. PS I hadn’t noticed that email, so thanks for the heads up PPS Griffiths and Reis missed too many in my view as well, which might be a bit unfair in Rostyn’s case but there you go.

Game of opinions Whilst Maclaren was particularly good during our purple patch, he was rather ordinary in the first third of the season. Good, however, has been pretty consistently in our top 3 all season and, imo, definitely deserves it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post neio Posted July 1, 2021 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 So the votes have been counted and we have a winner of the Forum Player Of The Season.... CONNOR METCALFE Thank you to everyone who voted during season, I understand this system is not absolutely perfect, as there is a couple of anomalies in this year cite, like how few Maclaren got.

If anyone has an idea how to make it better for next season I'm all ears Is this really an anomaly, just because JMAC scores goals does that make him the best player on the pitch week in week out? The hard part is that people have different opinions on what MotM actually means - score a 90th minute winner? Score 3 goals but squander 5 and loose heaps of possession (JMAC in some games). Not loosing possession? Single action or judged by a 90minute overal performance. Some people vote because a player just improved over all since the week before. All these metrics out there and we will never agree on how to vote. Edited July 1, 2021 by Mr MO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jw1739 Posted July 1, 2021 Report Share Posted July 1, 2021 Metcalfe is a worthy winner. As mentioned before, several players could well have won it. Thanks from us all are due to @neio for once again running this for the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone has an idea how to make it better for next season I'm all ears @neio The only issue I have with the current system is that it is, for the individual voter, an "all-or-nothing" system. I vote only on matches that I actually go to, and I often find myself forced to choose one player when there are several whom I think are worthy. These things are always more work than they appear, so I hesitate to suggest something different, and probably it's too complicated and/or there's some flaw in it that I haven't realised. What about giving each voter 3 votes per match that they can allocate as they wish? All 3 to one player, or 2 and 1 to their two best, or indeed 1-1-1? The Grand Final being an example where, for me, I would have allocated votes1-1-1 to Atkinson, Tilio and Cola. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, for example, if we have a really shit match you could allocate just one or two votes to players who were the best of a bad bunch on the day. Or just one. Just ideas that's all. I don't think it's as onerous as it first sounds. You would just have a spreadsheet with all the players across the x-axis and the number of matches down the y-axis and allocate the votes as they come in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
