          Up until the start of this last round, Barry was coming third in the C7 coaches award. This week's votes haven't been revealed yet (TF C7 tomorrow) - though I somehow doubt he'll be getting any this week!

          He would be leading our B&F by a country mile at the moment, I reckon, and given that we haven't been beaten by a heap in any games he'd be a chance to have picked up the odd 1 or even 2 lots of votes.

          Of course, tomorrow night's "date" might put pay to all this...

            From a team perspective, yes he has been a standout, Fantastic, even.
            From an umpire point of view?!?!? I don't think the Umpires would notice him, as they didn't on Sat. (thankgoodness)

            But I have been known to be wrong before...... Only Once I think, ......or I could've been mistaken.

              Agree with Aussie Ange - if Peter Perfect (Hird) gets it I'll heave!

              If is was for acting ability - particularly throwing himself to the ground - go no further than Chris Grant (aka Roger Ramjet)

              For actaully playing consistently well - Robert Harvey
              I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................

                  three picks..

                  hird... cos the umpires love the fool he got 19 votes last year and missed a fair few games.

                  a swans player would be hall i think hes our best so far...

                  but if im picking properly its Adam Simpson from the kangaroos...he gets more kicks than his teammates put together and uses the ball so well
                  Theres not much left to say

                    James Hird. Umpires will give him the votes out of fear that they may be seen as sour grapes... My artery will burst when this happens

                    A softie for Matthew Nicks

                      im trying to be unbiasd... but i dont know james hird to me is the most overrated player in the history of football... i dont like wayne carey but in his prime he was a star and voss and buckley both can take a game over...but hird is just a good player nothing more!

                        Earlier in the year I said Riewoldt. I'll stay with him.
                        He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

                          Ricciuto to go back to back.Has been sensational so far.

                            Agree with grant, Riccuto is the man at the moment. I picked him up at 12s last week but should of got him at 14s before his sensational game against the hawks. Into 9-1 now and 2nd favourite has Carlton this week which wouldnt be surprised to see him run wild and get another few votes.

                            Also plays great when Adelaide have something to really play for and they are still a chance for the finals as Adelaide have plenty of home games to come.

                            Look for him to go close this year.

                                Oh yes there is a God, Eddie Buckley not a hope!!!
                                I was told that he was none too pleased about having to share it last year - I kind of feel sorry for Ricutto - he seems to be the forgotten one!
                                I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure..................
