    Born To Play Finals

    I will start with one nomination/player. Watching the replay (for the 3rd time) McAvaney said Tory Dickson averages 3 goals per final in his short finals career to date, including 3 in Grand Final. These stats show a player... Born To Play Finals.

        Josh Dunkley had a good series. He had a quiet grand final still did some nice things.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            Career best 11 tackles is a heavily contested Grand Final. Great nomination!

                  But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                        That's unbelievable. That's the sort of iron will to win that got you made King in medieval times.

                          Not a player but Bevo was certainly born to coach them.

                            I'm gonna be the cherry picker. Finals are about players who are leaders, are ice cool under pressure, have time in heavy traffic, do all the hard things and use the ball wisely. How can you go past Him?

                              Yep. With each watching of the replay his game gets better and better.
