Does anyone have a clue who will win Dally M, 2008?

Question

Matt Orford is playing at his best, Danny Buderus is doing everything he can in his last year as a knight, Former winners Cam Smith and Jonathon Thurston have both had successful origin campaigns and Greg Bird (Before injured) Lead the sharks to some classic wins. So, Who will win the Dally M in 2008?

Answer 1

Inglis or slater for sure... playing their best football all year...

Answer 2

You could put your house on Scott Prince, until he got injured.  Cameron Smith is looking good.

Todd Carney is a dark horse, as is Brett Stewart

Answer 3

Would think Billy Slater would be well up in the votes along with Cam Smith.

But Matt Orford deserves something he is good and never gets a thing.

Answer 4

doesnt matter who wins it billy slater deserves it the most he has been the best and most consistent player in the nrl

btw im a dragons supporter

Answer 5

Matt Orford, when Manly wins he gets points. And Manly win alot of games.

Answer 6

ISSAC LUKE  or maybe the young guy (probably unlikely) Chris Sandow

Answer 7

Feleti Mateo.  He is the only eels player who will get points.  Rule out the storm players because Bellamy will start resting them.

Answer 8

I hope that it's Danny Buderus, to go out on a high point because he deserves it. I think it might be Slater because he's in a rich vein of form. I know it's going to be Orford, because Manly's starting to win due to him

Answer 9

I prayy that Danny Buderus can get a few more points down and catch up HE IS THE MAN and most deserving. His injured for another week or so but I hope so bad he gets it lol

Answer 10

it would be great if danny buderus wins it, he deffinetly deserves it

but it would be even better if a manly player won it

matt orford or even brett stewart ;)

Answer 11

Jamie Soward maybe

or maybe im drunk

im probably drunk

Answer 12

I don't think any of them deserve it. I'm thinking along the lines of Inglis or Slater.

I don't think any player from a team near the bottom of the ladder can honestly deserve the Dally M

Answer 13

kurt gidley for sure.

Answer 14

I hope Billy Slater, that man is fantastic!

Answer 15

I would say personally its a player who consistantly performs week in week out and plays for a sucessful team...

So considering that information and this years form...

Best contenders are

Matt Orford (Manly)

Cam Smith (Storm)

Billy Slater (Storm)

Greg Inglis (Storm)

Robbie Farah (Tigers)

Braith Anasta (Roosters)

Danny Buderus will not win the dally m hes past it and should have let Robbie Farah have origin berth

Answer 16

anasta

Answer 17

maybe a storm player

Id love if to be isaac luke

Answer 18

feleti matao! but seriosly who cares about an award that is judged by EX PLAYERS who are out of touch with todays game! im more interested in the players player of the year (judged by the current players)

Answer 19

i hope cam smith

greg inglis

btw, does origin performances impact on dally m voting? does it count?

Answer 20

Camron Smith or Grad Inglis.

Answer 21

JAMIE SOWARD GO THE SAINTS

Answer 22

The Dally M medal is awarded on the basis of dally m points and before the voting went behind closed doors, the contenders were:

Matt Orford - 19

Feleti Mateo - 15

Billy Slater - 15

Braith Anasta - 15

Danny Buderus - 14

Scott Prince - 14

Cam Smith - 14

Jamie Soward -14

Paul Gallen - 13

Chris Heighington - 13

From this list, i'd say the obvious contenders for the Dally M will be Orford, Mateo, Anasta, Slater, Buderus and Smith. I'd say Anasta will be the Dally M medallist for '08

Answer 23

i think/hope slater will win it.. he has had a wonderful season..

Answer 24

my fingers are crossed for Danny Buderus
