Ani Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 For the first time in ages someone could deserve this! Short list must be Santos, Baptiste, Doyle and Gilks January additions special award short list- Lee Dapo John and MJ Young player no list needed GT Special award for being so much better than the last one who had the job - Gilks, Sharon and maybe Evatt - but think Parky was at least dignified as the world went to shit. I imagine Santos runs away with it, but Baptiste has been at least as good in recent weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolton va va Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Santos by two country miles........he's that good, i think we've started taking him for granted. Doyle 2nd, his goals have been crucial but he also works his nads off for the team. ( & it's worth pointing out that the times he pops up out on the wing, he's dragging defenders out of position ) Gilks 3rd......not just for his goalkeeping but the positive effect his "organising" has had on the whole defence.

Burndens Bogs Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Santos, Doyle, Gilkes, Baptiste - in that order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted April 14, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted April 14, 2021 Over the course of the season it has to be Santos. There have been some class contributions too, yes them already mentioned but John, Jones, Lee & Williams have all been outstanding over these last 15 or 16 games too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jol_BWFC Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Goals win games; defences win leagues © @Rudy For that reason, Santos, Gilks and Doyle in that order. Special mention for Gilks though. I don’t think Santos or Baptiste would play the way they do without having confidence in the man behind them. Look at the games with Crellin in goal. I think Gilks would win “most influential player of the season”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrycowdrill Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Considering we’re looking at awarding a player of the year based on half a season I’d say there’s plenty in the running Santos has been the most consistent week in week out though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazBob Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Santos clear winner for me. Had MJ been here since the start then he'd be running him very close. It's just nice to have so many who are worthy to be nominated, rather than a player winning it because he was the least shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantra Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 Santos has been in the best form most consistently over the course of the season. He was one of the only positives when we were struggling in the early season. For that reason he is the clear POTY. 2nd place Gilks for his influence. If it wasn't for how shite Crellin performed he might not have made the top 3 but the stark contrast highlights his influence. 3rd place Doyle, you can't get 17 goals+ and not make the top 3. 4th Baptiste, matched Santos in recent weeks in terms of his performances but was a bit of a liability at times this season and took him longer to find his way. Then it's the January lads - MJ, Lee, Dapo all had big impacts. Isgrove has improved a lot. If they'd all been playing since the start of the season it may have been a different story.
