[Coach]

If he wins, should the award be taken away? I mean, Hutchy said Cotch isn't good enough yet for the Brownlow. But is he good enough to win an award that the coaches (what the stuff do they know??) vote on? If so, why is he good enough to win this award but not good enough to win a medal that Steve McBurney & Friends vote on? Surely the coaches have no idea.

Help

Regards,
The Coach

On form,
Cotch officially passes Judd this year.
Make our choice not to go after Judd look like it was the right thing to do

[Coach]

We did have a crack at Juddy. AFL helped Carlton get the deal done

Correct, pursued Judd to the ends of the earth!! Can't believe we couldn't get it over he line

[Judge Roughneck]

The way the boy wills him self to effect the play is just awesome.

Couple times in the last quarter hes thrown himself.head first
 

[Ox]

and the way he guards the "space" of the ball in both marking and contested ball.

Cant teach that poo

[Yeahright]

Best thing is his second/third efforts. Just pushes him self from 50 to 50

Good to see Cotch break a hard tag. Rainesy could only contain him for a half. Once Cotch broke free of the shackles in the second half he was a big reason we kicked away in the 3rd qtr.

Cotch in front by one vote now in the Coaches' Award ...
