AFLCA Player of the Year Award – Round 13, 2012 – Watson? Jobe hits the front! The bye rounds are over and apart from injuries, all the players on the same number of games. And we have a new leader. The old leader, Scott Pendlebury (2nd, 55 Votes) is still out with an injury [...]
AFL Match Review Panel – Round 13, 2012 – Black Out? Okay, so the headline is a little fake as I didn’t get the post out this morning before the Match Review Panel findings were released and hence I know that Black isn’t out. But he was close! He had one of the pest taggers [...]
AFLCA Player of the Year Award – Round 10, 2012 – They’re dropping like Pies! The leader of the coaches Award won’t be scoring any points in the next 2 weeks and perhaps more. Scott Pendlebury (55 votes) got injured in the early stages of their match with the Suns and didn’t add to [...]
AFLCA Player of the Year Award – Round 9, 2012 – I’m Back Baby! It took me a while to get my ducks (stats) in a row, but I am back with Coaches Award (will go back over the week to add in the old entries) as a weekly look at the Coaches Award [...]
Generally around this point of the season, where teams have played half their games and players are either finding form or have been in form for weeks, media commentators start to rattle off their mid-year All-Australian line-ups. Here at AFL Space, we’ve decided to take a different approach. We’ve decided the best course of action [...]
With Judd (2nd, 37 votes) having the week off and now Jobe Watson (1st, 43 votes) likely to miss the next 3 weeks with a Hammy injury, Gary Ablett (17th, 20 votes) made us remember why he is such a great player getting the 10 votes in a losing effort vs the Crows on the [...]
There have been some big injuries announced in the early part of the week. And when I say big, I mean to ruckman! Seaby (an early target of trades in DreamTeam) is out for 12 weeks. This will be a blow for Sydney who sit on top of the ladder. Ottens is listed to be [...]
UPDATED: Wed 28th 6:15pm: Updated the Crows list with the addition of Chris Knights who is set to miss this week. Wed 28th midday: Updated the Crows list with the addition of Patty Dangerfield with a Wrist injury! ——————————– So the first few weeks that I have done this weekly post I have concentrated on who is out. This [...]
Round 5 team selection for the AFL will be particularly interesting. Each week I sit here and try to work out what to write about teams and each week just when I think I have nothing to write, something happens. This week, the big, late breaking story is that Jonathan Brown of the Brisbane Lions who [...]
No injuries this week as big as last but another Hammy that requires surgery. West Coast midfielder, Daniel Kerr, did his hammy on the stroke of half time and will miss 8 weeks. One of the other big injuries actually happened in the VFL when Hawks recruit, Shaun Burgoyne, broke his jaw and will miss [...]
