Quite a bizzare points award system.

Agree with Goodsey & Jude at / near the top. What has gotten into Jude this year? Can he share his enthusiasm around?

McVeigh > Kirk??
C Bolton = 1/2 Shaw & only 1 up on LRT??

Bob,

This system is predicated on the assumption that the best lists in the papers are an accurate reflection on the performance on the day. As we all know, they aren't particularly accurate. For example, I saw Micky O was in our best list against Hawthorn. I thought he was pretty poor throughout the whole day.

OMG that is an amazing way to fill in your time.

I thought I was wierd analyzing the names.

OMG that is an amazing way to fill in your time.

I thought I was wierd analyzing the names.

I once analysed their birth signs. Now that was really interesting. Clumps of attitudes and lumps of non playing signs. Haven't done that for some ten years. May have another go, if I really get holed up during the summer with nothing better to do. Watch this space Satch.

Analyzing the names? Do you want to expand on that? No-one else would be interested, but I am a simple klutz and easily diverted......I think.
