    i already started this topic , but it got moved into the davey hanger thread :wacko:

    Do the people who selected Dunn this week realise that Foley got a handball away whilst being tackled and Richmond goaled???

    Do u realise foley is very fast and dunn came from behind mclean who was chasing foley and still manged to tackle him....

    the goal is irrelevant the effort isnt

    My point is it wasn't an effective tackle. How many times a game do you reckon players would have put in a long and hard chase over the weekends games? Should they all receive a nomination even though the didn't manage to lay an effective tackle.

    I am not having a go at Dunn, because it was a super effort to run past Brock and chase him down, but if it didn't actually achieve anything, then it is no different to any other hard run a chase a player puts in.

    Courage and determination, I think. Perhaps somehing about teamwork.

    All the positive qualities the Army likes to think they possess :)

    The award is set up and delivered on an army recruitment site.

    Being cannon fodder isn't about winning or losing, it's about putting in the effort no matter the outcome, even if you know you will fail.

    Given Australia's history of valiant but doomed military adventures, it's appropriate that Dunn should not only be nominated, but win this week.

    I would be interested to know if the Army Award habitually posits 2 winners and 1 'valiant but doomed' effort as nominees for the Award.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.
