Wellington Coaches have awarded Bertos their player of the season. I agree with them. Wellington had a number of purchase failures this year, particularly Kwasnik. But Bertos' move from Perth was a good one. Shane Smeltz was not even in the top 3. Their scoring started before Smeltz decided to move to the Gold Coast.
I agree with them. The first past the post system in which all A-League players vote after each set of 7 rounds distorts the outcomes and forces focus on goal scorers Smeltz, Miller etc. The clubs' inhouse systems voted by coaches using 3 votes, 2 votes and 1 vote systems are much more aligned to overall input and lead to rewards for playmakers and the most significant contributors.
By the way, this is my 400th post.

Thanks Hamish - I appreciate your comments - I met an evangelist who is going to SA 2010. Not sure you'd have a great time (he is going to provide the spiritual counseling).
