IMO, the fracical Price/Bailey situation shows the need to ammend the Dally M. It should not be "3..2...1", because you can get 3 points playing good in a poor game, or 3 points playing outstanding in a great game, it doesn't reflect how tremendous your performance was. Or, you can be a marquee player at a mid table club, get a few wins and be guaranteed the 3 points. It should be every player on field is rated out of 10... And table it from there. There is simply no way known to man that Luke Bailey (no disrespect to him) was anywhere...and I mean anywhere near Steven Price this year. Steven Price played each game, so it's not as if Bailey got over the top of Price on the back good performances while Price was down and out. It's an absolute disgrace Bailey got above him, but the current way it's done allows too much favouring of the media darlings. Johns at times only had to lace up a boot to get the 3 points and Buderus two for sticking his mouth guard in. It's a farce that needs a dramatic overhaul.
