Go BJ

[SaintSimmo]

When the offical voting for the Mark of the Year nomination for rd 21 starts on the AFL site, possibly later tonight, everyone on here must vote, we need to get BJ that new car

[matrix]

there is no new car
its a fuel voucher rumor has it

[SaintSimmo]

well lets get him the fuel voucher!!!

[saintbrat]

another poll

I've been thinking

the only way to get someone to make a fair choice now would be to show them the marks in reverse order - Jarrah's first and then BJ's and then ask that person.

short term memory can be faulty- you remember the most recent event

but judged on logistics BJ should be chosen.

Apparently the fuel voucher is for the person who votes for the winning mark, but they dont actually say what the player recieves.

i just voted and bj is a fair whack behind

[saintbrat]

this Poll has him closer but they have a third option- can't be split

http://www.3aw.com.au/

every radio and tv and paper has a poll going

many have Jarrah with about 65%.

[saintbrat]

good to hear BJ has the Votes coming frm the correct areas
One of the panel that chooses the winner has already backed his mark over Liam's

the 'public Polls' may say Jarrah the experts are more even and 2/3 in one show said BJ

always Knew Hirdy was a good guy

[saintspremiers]

so I assume there weren't any huge speccies in the first 20 rounds this year for mark of the year?

Or is this the normal short term memory of the media in play??

Jurrah was always going to win - an Indigenous player flying stands out a lot more than a Whitey, plus we expect them to be flashy.....think of Winmar's marks!

On the couch showed 3-4 of the best marks over the season- Not Jack's 7 nominations
one of Jack's was probably leading.

Now I might be a touch biased, but this photo proves that BJ's is the best. BJ has to extend to get the ball, whereas Jarrah is in front of his face.

I agree 100%. Jurrah ends up taking it at chest height, but Goddard was at full stretch.

Should be taken into account that Goddard has an extra 15kg to haul up there. Pretty fly for a white guy.
