Thread: Happy recruiting period

    Happy recruiting period

    Congrats to Garry Ablett on the AFLPA MVP award. Some interesting past winners from 1985-88 ...

    Previous winners of the Leigh Matthews Trophy for Most Valuable Player:
    1985 - Greg Williams (Geelong)
    1986 - Paul Roos (Fitzroy)
    1987 - Tony Lockett (St Kilda)
    1988 - Gerard Healy (Sydney)

    None of them were "recycled" by us in today's sense of successful recruiting, but all were very handy pickups .
    Can't believe Gerard Healy is our only MVP. Goodsey, Kelly, Williams must have gone close at various times.

    Seems unequal doesn't it. Surely Kell, Kennedy, would have a look in by now.

    I think Kennedy was nominated this year and finished fifth?
