He's coming for too far back
With 6 rounds to go there's a maximum of 30 votes up for grabs and he's currently 47 votes behind Grundy so the maths don't work
Sidey and Pendles are the only 2 mathematically that can catch him but really logic would say Grundy might be home already as his finals series was probably equal to his competitors
But the final count hasn't been completed yet so anything could happen like Langdon losing votes for poor hair choices or unpolished boots

E I've gone back over the 1st 15 rounds again and all votes have been double checked. Whilst Adams polled votes in some rounds he didnt poll enough to be in the top 5 place getters in any of the rounds prior to round 13
Langdon also hasn't polled enough votes in any round to be in the top 5 vote getters for a individual round
Your welcome to go back and check yourself it should only take a few hours to do so
Once your satisfied that the votes are correct then maybe you would like to finish the remainder
No way mate. This is a labor of love that i couldn't possibly do. i cant count for a start! Jokes aside, this is a difficult job. Thanks for all the hard work.
What has been interesting is that P4S's campaign for people to start noticing and respecting Adams and Langdon starts to pay dividends in about round 16. Ironically, both players had really consistent years IMO. Its just that we noticed them more in the back half of the year.
What I've noticed whilst tallying the votes is how when some of better known players had quieter games or patches through the year was how the lesser names that started getting votes
21 players from 26 who've played 10 or more games after 20 rounds IMO is a good sign of the work load being shared
Adams form prior to the bye wasn't great but from the bye onwards it was
Adams form really took off when Treloar went out and Sier came in
It's like he as a leader knew he had to lift his game to help cover the loss
Likewise Langdon when we lost Dunn and Scharenberg he changed his role and his form improved dramatically
Look I'm not a Langdon fan think that's obvious but I'll tip my hat to any player who steps up and does what's best for the team when the team needs it most and that's what Langdon did
I think it shows just how good Grundy's year was polling in 17 of 20 rounds
P4S has long said that Grundy is our best player
I said early in the season as many others said as well he's the barometer of our performances
When he's on fire we look great when he's down a little we struggle
What is he a 6ft7" midfielder ? Because that's how he plays
Our reliance on Pendles has diminished which is a good thing
Imagine where JDG could be had he not missed the first 6 weeks of voting
