2017 Keith ‘Bluey’ Truscott Memorial Trophy

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

Well done Clarry

 

Clarry second year B&F is an awesome achievement, the kid has such an great future ahead of him. 

Hibberd not in top 5 boggles the mind. 

Having said that deserving accolades to all top 5 places. Nev Jetta’s 5th placing is one of the stories of the year. Great stuff from him. 

Will be interesting to see the top 10.

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.

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


Club just sent an email with the results. Oliver smashed it.

Well done Clarry. 

Had a black mark against his name in the preseason and bounced back to win our B&F. 

2nd year player and now our best. Huge achievement.

Jones: wishes "Wattsy" all the best, no matter what happens

A class act. They're the survivors (with JT) since the Bailey years, been through a lot together.

Jordan Lewis finishes equal third. Must say I'm surprised he finished that high. He was decent, but not outstanding.

Do people not understand how important Lewis was to this team? 

Most important recruit for 10 years

Hibberd must surely have been pipped for 5th.

But well done Oliver. Scary to think what he could be if he keeps going the way he is.

He was sensational considering he could barely walk for most of the year. 

This award is about more than just stats. Viney played his role as did Lewis which is why he won the votes. 

 

Viney must have been given votes for playing when far from 100% fit because he had a lot of poor games when obviously not fit and when you add those to his missed games this is a horrific result.

See, he is still in our best 22.

WTF!

Viney 2nd?

Either Hibberd or Clarry not even top 5?!

Surprised he didn't win it.

Stellar effort from Hannan!

Good thing Oliver is a superstar because gees he's not much of a public speaker ?

How does Lewis get more votes than Hibberd?

Yeah nah. Crazy stuff. Hibberd did a lot more than pad his stats. 

Are we really debating the craziness of our only All Australian player not making the top five at the expense of Viney and Lewis who missed chunks of the year?

Just now, Jaded said:

Was thinking the same for Neal-Bullen. Just missed out on the top ten.

 

Lucky Clayton can play footy that's  all  ill say.

15 minutes ago, Jaded said:

Obviously the coaches didn't think Hibbo filled his role as well as they wished. It's hard for us to judge. 

But look at the top 5- all guys who set standards and lead by example. Coincidence? I think not! 

 

Hibberd 3 votes behind Jetta, who was 6 votes behind Lewis/Jones I think - very close.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: West Coast

    Epic battle alert.  This Sunday, Casey Fields hosts a coach’s showdown pitting the wits of the master Mick Stinear (92 games, 71.7% win rate) against his protégé Daisy Pearce (16 games, 43.8%). Still early in her coaching journey, Daisy’s record doesn’t yet reflect her impact — but she’s already the best-performed coach at West Coast.Dais’ is mythic.  Like Katniss Everdeen, everyone either wants to kiss her, kill her (sporting metaphor) or be her.  Toothers Daisy Pearce is a role model, someone admired for their heart, humility and humour.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.
