Player of the Season (Statistics)

This is the total amount of votes they got through out the season through MoM polls. Note that our first loss against Perth did not have a MoM poll.

Goalkeepers
Moss - 205
Paston - 39

Defenders
Sigmund -167
Dodd - 123
Muscat - 78
Lochhead - 49
Durante - 35
Mulligan - 1

McKain - 170
Hearfield - 105
Brown - 91
Ferrente - 83
Gao - 44

Fred - 7

Forwards
Smeltz - 110
Barbarouses - 56
Kwasnik - 15
Coveny - 14
Draper - 0

Surprisingly Moss had the most votes (probably due to his flashy saves which seem to appeal more to people not his actual good performances) and beat out the likes of Sigmund, McKain and Bertos who were probably far more deserving.

Team of the Season:
                    Moss
Muscat Sigmund Dodd Lochhead
     Bertos McKain Brown Hearfield
            Barbarouses Smeltz

EDIT: 3,2,1 system lower down this page.wellyphoenixfan2009-02-02 17:23:40

Wouldn't a 3-2-1 scoring system be more accurate?

especially given some of those votes were clearly placed to create comment. I think a  3,2,1 system would be much better!

Is that counting all the joke votes?

So you are saying that in the 2 games that Costa played, he wasn't far off Manny Muscat and just destroyed Durante and had he played another 2 games, been as good as Smeltz....???

I voted 73 times for Moss because of his pant wettingly smoky hotness.

Ok if you want 3,2,1 here it is thanks for making me do more work :
Paston 3
Moss 2+3+1+3= 9
Sigmund 1+1+3+1+1+1+3= 11
Muscat 2+2+1+3+1= 9
Durante 1+2= 3
Dodd 1+2+2+3+1= 9
Lochhead 1+1+2= 4
McKain 2+2+3+3+2= 12
Brown 3+2+2=7
Gao 3+2= 5
Daniel 2+1= 3
Ferrente 1+1+2+1= 5
Bertos 3+3+3+1+2+3+2+1+1+2= 21
Hearfield 3+2+2+3+1= 11
Barbarous 3
Smeltz 3+2+3+1= 9

Top 3 scores:

So just change Costa for Ferrante.

Yeah or buy Gao

That seems a better reflection.

Siggy definetly had to be up there

Yeah I am surprised that Bertos beat him quite easily.

He was pretty consistent and would have played more games. But yeah the gap is pretty huge

and all of a sudden moss is in the middle of the pack, surprised to see Bertos up there at the top.....

You forgot to add George to the poll.

Hearfield was one of the fans top 4?

Quite surprising given I thought Hearfield only turned in a few good performances.

Yes I found this surprising though he did have a string of good performances. (e.g the two latest games vs Newcastle.)

Yep, I question the validity of this poll.

This isn't a poll...

We need a poll.

To say what?

Meh.  Fever player of the season will be awarded in the same fashion as last year based on points accumulated from these polls (not total votes).

If you want to know who won it you better keep Grand final night fee to come to the Fever awards.

Yeah we need a poll so twats can vote Costa and George....

I thought Ferrante was the new joke option?

How much are we getting?

You still can't let the Moss/Paston thing go can you?

"Surprisingly Moss had the most votes (probably due to his flashy saves which seem to appeal more to people not his actual good performances"

Member title fits.

I would have thought the fact that Melbourne signed Moss over Paston would have spoken enough...

According to the A-League Smeltz is the best player in the league. JW Medal. What the f**k? I'm happy for him but seriously that is a joke.

Oh and Breeze wins ref of the year.

Yes that he was a cheaper option for reserve keeper.

Seriously I am going to laugh next year at you guys when Melbourne are conceding heaps of goals but you guys will just blame the Melbourne defence just like you blamed our defence this season.

What did Mossy do to piss you off WPF? Seriously.

Nothing just some people on these forums overrate him. Yet no matter the statistics I provided they then started blaming our defence. But you have to ask why our defence played better under Paston then.

He said "Poll" not "Plank"

They didn't

They did, but I said why did he concede more goals and yet make more saves then Paston? (This was at the time statistics) They replyed that not every goal was his fault so blamed it on the defence. I said basically then why does the defence play better under Paston? Then they just continued saying the goals were not his fault etc.

They weren't
