Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2450719, member: 1899"] It's always going to be a flawed system because it's judged by either commentators or journalists & most of the time they have to have their mind made up within an hour of the game going off air. Even voting 3-2-1 on here I feel I need a replay because the result will cloud moments that pass my mind come the full-time siren. Needs to be a better system and shouldn't be decided by journalists who have their own independent agenda. Every year, one club always seems to take the bulk of award so that the journos can spin a headline. It isn't right, especially when superior players aren't getting the recognition they deserve, recognition that could give them more money or even assist their club with more sponsorship opportunities. I don't think last night was a great representation for the code either. Neither Brisbane or North Queensland could attend (Melbourne couldn't one year either) which always makes the event look trivial & the players seemed to be taking the piss when they were interviewed. I get the feeling, having a comedian conducting those interviews was a bad idea, they should get legends like Lewis, Lockyer, Daley & co. to do it or even just guys like Warren Smith or Andrew Voss with decades of experience interviewing these players. Also, they need to get rid of captain of the year. What a waste of an award. How do you measure leadership? Especially when it's being judged on-field? Silly. [/QUOTE]
