87 players in the drafts this year, largest PSD pool since 2014. Will we see the same kind of votes spread as then where a total of 33 players got at least a vote?

This round seemed to be more about who gets a spot on the team, this will likely lessen as the season goes on though.

Andrew McGrath looking like a mainstay and Newman also looks strong. This will be close.

Once again, the main chase features an Eden player. It seems I have a good eye for talent

A more even spread this year, this time last year 17 votes was 3rd place. Honourable mention to Petrevski-Seton who was 3 points short of getting a vote from OOP.

 

Did Willaims and Paparone miss the votes as they were not part of the starting 15?

 

Yeah, that is always what I mean by missed the votes

I've already had my Newman post in the POOYA thread, interestingly it adds Amon to the main chase. This is also the first round this year that no new players got votes. This happened first in R10 last year, R3 in 2015 and R11 (R8) in 2014.

Hrovat regains the singular lead but Newman is catching up and averaging 18 points more than 2nd highest av. (Preuss) McGrath's form has dropped in the last couple of rounds but will probably recover and make it a good chase. Can't really rule out anything at this stage...

What a round, 6 scores over 90 and Hrovat still managed to get a vote with 72. The main chase is still Hrovat vs McGrath, Second Chance vs Rising Star.

And just like that, Newman rejoins the main chase, SPP is also doing well in 4th. This will be a close finish with every point vital.

5 rounds to go, McGrath and Newman have retained form leading to an interesting chase. Hrovat is still just 1 game behind though.

McGrath takes a key lead with his 4th 5 of the year. Hrovat has fallen out of form so it looks to be the 3rd year in a row an Eden player has came 3rd in the Lucky Find PSD.

McGrath up by 7 with 3 rounds to go. Likely, but still not guaranteed.

 

Second time I've cost Witherden votes!

All the top 4 were out of form this week but a slowed pace favours the leader. Also, Witherden finally made the Buffaloes team and Hartley for the Whalers did well too.

Andrew McGrath will win unless he doesn't poll and Newman gets 5.
