Woof Player Awards Rnd 17 - Western Bulldogs vs Carlton
Re: Woof Player Awards Rnd 17 - Western Bulldogs vs Carlton
4. Cross......seriously under-rated on this board. Was great last night and has had a very good season.
3. Dahlhaus.......his best game of the year
2. Lake......another strong game and held a brittle back line together
1. Griffen......worth a single vote but no longer the attacking weapon he once was. Just doesn't hurt teams anymore with disposal or take the opposition on. Appears to have gone into his shell.
Re: Woof Player Awards Rnd 17 - Western Bulldogs vs Carlton
I have refrained from voting previously because I catch it on the radio only generally while looking after children. But last night got a full match radio & TV! So...
4. Lake (he really is back to best form)
3. Dahlhaus (clear winner against his opponent/s and dangerous deep in the forward line)
2. Minson (we knew they had a 1st game ruckman only and Minson really killed him as he should have)
1. Williams (some hope for the future of our forward line with him in it).
2. Dahlhaus
1. Wallis (still can't work out why he was dropped after round 1 for about 3 matches if I recall correctly but I've now got a string of question marks after a number of the coaching decisions this year, this is just one more).

That's harsh IMO. Without Cooney (or without Cooney contributing as he once could), Griff is having to shoulder much of the load around the ball. For mine, he gives everything.

I'm not questioning his effort.....but he rarely takes the game on nowadays even when he is in space. There were some good signs early in last night's game but he is quite easily tagged out of games. As you say...he probably suffers from carrying the load now that Cooney is not the payer he was. He's certainly not our greatest problem..we simply don't have enough like him.

4. Luke Dahlhaus - his enthusiasm and energy are very uplifting.
3. Ryan Griffen - he seemed to play up forward most of the game last night with only a few stints in the centre.
2. Liam Picken - never ever stops trying to stop his opponent and get the ball for us.
1. Daniel Cross - does some great things like filling in gaps and taking marks, but then often dithers before disposing of the ball, unfortunately.
2. Luke Dahlhaus
1. Jarad Grant - thought he did some great run downs and tackles
