Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3232124, member: 9853"] To be tedious, I'll answer your rhetorical question literally: In round 1 you were only given 2 votes, but 109 members voted. In round 2 you got 3 votes, but only 71 voted. Right now, that's skewed the votes towards the top 2 standouts in round 1. This most notably hurt Herbie Farnworth in third place, as he might've polled another 20-30 votes had there been a third choice. Croft and Coates would also have benefited from a third choice, and maybe Isaako. Milford looked like he was returning to form in round 1. Or at least, he'd been told not to overthink it, just get the ball to Xavier, and that worked pretty well until Coates went off. Then he fell to shit. Or something like that. In round 2, he was up against David Fifita, who knew his shortcomings back to front. He knew all he had to do was run at Milford or Isaako near the line and 9/10 times that would be a try. So Milford got badly exposed, and hence no votes in round 2. The entire spine was jelly. None of them deserved a single vote. Round 2 was harder to pick a standout as the entire team really was woeful. Niu and Riki weren't perfect, but were clearly busting their guts, and TPJ stood out in the forwards as being able to inflict pain on Fifita and break their defensive line. Beyond that though, it was tough to praise anyone else. [/QUOTE]
