B&F, Most Improved, Best First Year Player

Featured Replies

B&F

1. Frawley

2. Green

3. Jamar

4. Junior

5. Bruce

Most Improved- Jamar

1st Year- Scully

 

B & F - Brad Green (closely followed by Frawley and then Jamar)

Most improved - Lynden Dunn

Best first year player - Thomas Scully

B&F - raffle between Green, Jamar & Davey. Surprised at the lack of love for Davey, still played 20 games.

Most Improved - Frawley or Jamar. Frawley's year was a real step up, particularly the attacking part of his game, 2009 was solid but 2010 was still a huge improvement. Jamar was perhaps our most important player this year, gone from being inconsistent and injury prone to a 22 game player and B&F contender. Dunn's second half of the year has been outstanding but I think coming off a significantly lower base clouds people's judgement here and we also forget how significant Spud and Russian's improvement was, its become their accepted standard after doing it for 22 weeks in succession.

Best First Year Player - Scully, easily. Geez his 4th Qtrs are something special for a kid.

5. Scully

First year: Scully

Most improved : Colin Garland. Frawley and Jamar were good last year too. They just stood out more this year when the team was going better. Garland prob was too, but for me, he stood out as the most improved.

So is this tonight?

I thought that it was after the Grand Final?

Matt Burgan twittered "Who will win the Keith 'Bluey' Truscott Trophy tonight? Hmm ... stay tuned!"

Is anyone here going? Some updates throughout the night would be great


Unfortunately can't make it tonight as it should be a really interesting night.

Would be nice to get some updates.

You will get them as Whispering Jack is there.

BFY: Scully

BF: Green

MI: Dunn

Jamar made the quantum leap in 2009 IMO, not 2010, so no most improved for me. Dunn's transition has been the most marked and the most surprising to me, I had him as a certain scratching at the start of the year.

Seconded and if anyone had told me that he would replace Bate as a key forward -I would have told them they were on drugs or dreamin.Also picked the same winners as stated above.

B&F could probably be raffled.

Green from Frawley and Jamar.

Best first year player Trengove.

Most improved Dunn with Bartram close in.


Keith 'Bluey' Truscott - Best & Fairest - Brad Green

Sid Anderson - 2nd Best & Fairest - James Frawley

Ron Barassi Snr - 3rd Best & Fairest - Mark Jamar

Ivor Warne-Smith - 4th Best & Fairest - Aaron Davey

Dick Taylor - 5th Best & Fairest - Cameron Bruce

Norm Smith - Coaches Award - Nathan Jones

Ron Barassi Jnr - Leadership Award - Brad Green

Harold Ball - Best First Year Player - Tom Scully

Ian Ridley - Club Ambassador - Brent Moloney

Picked Jones for Coach's award as I felt he could potentially see the writing on the wall playing the role he has, then either through putting his hand up or being asked by the FD, became more of a tagger and was asked to play on some tough opponents, most times being able to walk off with his head held high.

Will take nearest to the pin thanks guys!

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
