I actually think Trenners might poll well, i get he hasn't had the best year, but stats wise he is right up there and the club thinks the world of him, might be in line for best clubman or something?

Actually Terlich, Matty Jones and Kent can all hold their heads high. All were relatively late picks and have performed well above expectations of most. They should feature somewhere on the night despite Nathan, Garland and Sylvia picking up the silverware!

Given that everyone seems to agree that our midfield is so ordinary, it's surprising how much of a stand-out Nathan Jones has been......albeit one that began to look a little worn out as the season progressed. On the other hand, I don't understand why Matt Jones would be thought of in the same context. At best, in my opinion, just a trier. On balance, my vote would go to Colin Garland who never looked less than very good.

I put this in the Roos thread but I will put it here in the off-chance someone with connections reads this:

DO NOT ANNOUNCE ROOS AT THE BLUEY, AND CERTAINLY DON'T HAVE HIM THERE.

What a cringeworthy experience that would be to unveil a new era - at the celebration of the end of the old one...

The masses will sign the song for the promise of what may come in the future.

He will make a speech promising the same things we are always promised.

A standing ovation simply for agreeing to wear the match day jacket (reasonably priced at the Demon shop...).

Don't do it.

Please.

Like the majority around here, I reckon the Nathan Jones / Col Garland quinella is as close to a certainty as you can get.

I agree

I have a gut feeling that the reason that it is hinted at being Tuesday next week is for the very reasons you have listed above.

N Jones

Garland (close 2nd)

Terlich

Sylvia

M jones

If Garland hadn't missed the few games in the middle of the year i'd say he would take it out. Terlich was a great pick up this year, as was M jones. Syliva had a far more consistent year, but he still had his games where he was hardly sighted.

Terlich to take out best first year player.

you might be right

was much better in the 2nd half of the year

ended up average just under 18 touches for the year, and 20 touches per game after Craig took over

also led the club in tackles and tackles per game

Anyone thats going tonight going to give us live updates?

Tammie has just arrived on the Bluey red carpet, but she is going stag tonite. Experts are commentating how this does not look good for Roos coaching the club in 2014. Bookies now have Roos at $1:02 for the job and Roos is now 49/50% chance.

What I want to know about tonight is

Any announcements re players sponsors

Speeches what the players said so winners obviously

If every player was there

If someone could tell us those that would be great

...and was a certain Paul Roos anywhere to be seen, or even not seen hiding in a corner or behind a curtain?

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
