Again, look at the top 5, listen to the speeches made, and tell me the club isn't sending a subliminal message to us all. 

If you adhere by our level of standards you will be recognized and rewarded. Pretty simple.

Hibberd missed a few games at the start of the year, but still, so did Jones, Viney and Lewis. I know they are the coaches and and all that, but bloody hell, that is ridiculous.

Hibberd did get hurt by his opponent in games even if looking good rebounding out of 50. Not to say he was poor of course but some games where he looked close to BOG his opponent had kicked a few goals from memory.

After all the threads over years slating our draft choices, rest assured we absolutely nailed our first pick in 2015.

Well done Clarrie you are going to be something special

It's a staggeringly poor decision. Absolutely absurd. Viney the second best player this year? Spare us please. He looked embarrassed to accept it.

It isn't "a decision", it's 4x22x22 decisions. It's a surprising result but unless you're accusing the coaches of intentionally rigging the scores per game, it's pretty hard to argue with.

I knew the kid had a good year but god damn to win the b&f in his second year.

Well done Clarry

Absolute freak. Even Viney can't keep up with him ?

Imagine how good he'll be once he backs himself in to kick and attack more, such a great pick by the recruiters

Oliver absolutely Shat it in! What a fricken legend!

Agree

All confidence I believe. Hopefully Clarry realises now he belongs, he's going to be a real jet once he does.

Loved his speech as well. All genuine no AFL Training

Poor old Clarry mixing a gut full of beers with an obvious cold. ?

What standard was Lewis meeting when he was sitting in the stands after being suspended?

Come on.

Interesting results. Hannan and Frost above Milkshakes? Petracca above Garlett? Jones, Viney and Lewis above Hibberd? Viney 2nd? Coaches pet!

Can't argue with Clarry romping it in though.

Jones, Lewis, Hibberd and Jetta just about a tie.

Seems pretty accurate. Hibberd unlucky on paper, but when you look at the votes, he was more or less equal third, difference is miniscule.

Good to see ANB polling well, hope it spurs him on to bigger and better next year.

Yeah Petracca another great performance in only his second full season. These two and Viney are gonna a fearsome midfield in 5 years.

It's not splitting hairs at all. You made it sound like someone "decided" Viney should be second, when clearly that's not what happened or how it works.  You could challenge the individual votes which is where all the subjectiveness is (which we haven't seen and for all you know, could be perfectly valid), but by arguing against the final result, you might as well be arguing against the Microsoft Excel sum function.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
