    Classic when Buddy spilt the beans.....of what everyone knew anyway. "I don't know what everyone's laughing about." Funny stuff.

    For what it's worth (not much, I guess) I thought Parker would be our top Brownlow vote-getter. I thought his last two-thirds were outstanding and his ability to thrust us forward won us a few games. Bloody well done, mate.

    1. Parker
    2. Lloyd/Franklin
    4. Kennedy
    5. Hewett
    6. Grundy
    7. Papley
    8. Hannebery
    9. Jones
    10. Heeney

    What was the final margin at the end? Could Lloyd have won it if he played in both the Hawks losses ?

    46 points. 696 - 650. So, probably.

    I'm surprised Mills didn't do better. I thought he was really good this year. I underestimated how well Papley would do. I had Hewett in my to 10, but never expected him to get as high a 5th. I think some of us were questioning his contribution. Obviously very highly rated by the coaches. It's a good omen that our 1st two draft picks from the 2013 draft both made the top 10; it's a good sign that we are drafting and developing players for continued success.

    I think my favourite part of the presentation was Adam Spencer calculating that, if he keeps up his 2017 goal kicking rate, Buddy will overtake Plugger's all time goal kicking tally in the 3rd quarter of round 12, 2025 (in his 437th game).

    I'd like to see that!

    The winner of Ludwig's Future Star Award for 2017 is Sam Fisher.



    I know you can't believe it, but yes Sam, you are #1. The most coveted award in football is yours.

    And Buddy rising to it by saying that he'd have to speak to Tom Harley about a new contract.

    Laughable. Parker knew it as well.

    Wasn't even the best midfielder.

    Maybe he got points for playing under duress?
    The eternal connundrum "what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object" was finally solved when David Hasselhoff punched himself in the face.
