Mid-season poll - none tip Adelaide
Adelaide has received no votes for the 2006 Philips Championship in a mid-season coaches poll. Tigers were the strong favourites followed by Sydney, Wollongong, Perth and Townsville (last 3 all tied).
Overall, the coaches expect Adelaide to finish the regular season in third place, just ahead of the Hawks.
Anstey was tipped as MVP ahead of Bruton, Groves, Helms and Maher (1 vote).
Westover was tipped as Coach of the Year (I'd go with Goorjian, for sure - less talent, better results!).
Oscar Forman is tied with Luke Kendall for the Best Sixth Man vote, ahead of some decent opposition (Barlow, Caporn, Redhage, Stiff), and Worthington is easily the ROTY favourite.
None voted Dusty Rychart as the best import, but a couple picked Willie Farley. Larry Abney was the favourite.
3/11 coaches wanted Maher taking a potential game-winner, but 4 picked Jason Smith.
