Jayden Okunbor - 0 votesAnyone know top polling Bulldog?
Agreed.How did Ponga win it over Johnson. Ponga wasn't even the best fullback this year.
Yeah most likely..Ponga would have been QLD fullback if fit
What is it with the number 6? Have the NRL sold themselves to Satan or something? 6 agains, 6 point system, whats next? Top 6!?6 point system is fucked... draw isn't balanced. Dumb ***** who run these things have no idea, they just made it more unfair imo.
Preston was never in the contest despite the homers hereNot even Preston got a mention in the Rookie of year category and it's shows how bad we fell away after those couple of early wins when Kiraz went from leading the Dally M at one stage to not even making the final cut for winger of the year category.
It's coz they want to take the pess out of the kiwis....What is it with the number 6? Have the NRL sold themselves to Satan or something? 6 agains, 6 point system, whats next? Top 6!?
Buzz and his cronies, slinging him 6 a week.Look how Hynes polled haha he was shit as fuck after origin and average before it.
Agree. The whole points system and especially the calibre of the judges awarding the points needs looking at.The whole system needs a restructure.
They need to banish the suspension rule and the points system is ancient. Doesn't work anymore because there are so many good players in the comp and for whatever reason the people handing out the points feel obliged to give the 'best player' on the winning team max points as opposed to giving the best performer on the night the points.
It should be a system where at the end of the season 50 analysts/former players/hall of famers etc get 5 votes and they vote 1 to 5 who they think the best player in the comp is taking into consideration the totality of the whole season. Ponga only showed up for 50% of the year but he benefited because he played through origin period against weaker opposition and Knights went on a run where they had a favorable draw and won everything whereas SJ had the better season overall.
I agree it needs an overhaul and suspensions shouldn't count as those weeks missed lead to no points anyway..The whole system needs a restructure.

No doubt..I agree it needs an overhaul and suspensions shouldn't count as those weeks missed lead to no points anyway..
I think it shouldn't be week by week scoring. Just base it on the best players over the course of the season and change it to an MVP like award.
Johnson was by far the best player in the comp this season and got robbed..
