The last 3 consecutive years, it has been won by a player from a championship contesting team. Ere personally has had a more successful year this past season than he did last season. Anstey has not shown much if any improvement over last season. How he shines above Ere is beyond me considering Anstey wasn't good enough to win it last season. Ere has played with a "wow" factor throughout the season. He has been a class above all the rest. Is it any wonder his name always cropped up first in predicting who the MVP should be. I don't have a problem with Anstey winning it because he is also a worthy contender but not better than Ere.
Ere showed how much he could step up in the absence of McKinnon. Throughout the season the focus was on him winning it because the general consensus was that he stood out amongst the rest. I also wondered after Brisbane bowed out of the finals, how detrimental this would be to his quest for the MVP. I am not convinced that its determined by the regular season. If that is the case, why do we wait until the final 2 teams to contest the championship are identified before announcing the winner?
