VFLW B&F Lambert-Pearce Medal: Lauren Pearce

in AFLW Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

The winner of the VFLW Best & Fairest is Melbourne's own Lauren Pearce, who dominated in the ruck for Darebin in 2019. Pearce won with 18 votes from Conti (Richmond, 16 votes) and McIntosh (Essendon, 14 votes). The award itself is now named partly after the 'other' Pearce, Daisy, herself a 6-time winner.

A humble and deserving winner, Lauren is a great asset to our AFLW team and a loyal player for Darebin. After being the runner-up in the 2018 count, Lauren led the way in an inexperienced 2019 Darebin side. While this meant there weren't many players to take votes off her, gaining votes so consistently in a team that won few games speaks to her influence across the league.

Pearce was named in the VFLW Team of the Year as captain. Casey Demons Libby Birch and Bianca Jakobsson also won Team of the Year honours.

Casey's votes in the VFLW B&F:

Jakobsson 10 (5th overall)

Cordner 8

Birch 5

Winbanks 4

Emonson, Scott 3

Smith, Mithen, Guerin, Garner 2

Johnson, Bailey, Tatterson 1

    Rounding out the VFLW season, here are the Casey B&F awards for 2019. Unsurprisingly, the AFLW-listed players dominated the B&F count, with that famous Dees name ending up top. It might be in the blood, but you'd be hard pressed to find a more committed and hard-working player than Harriet Cordner.

    Best & Fairest

    Winner - Cordner

    Joint 2nd - Birch, Jakobsson, Zanker

     

    Most Improved - Dyson

    Rising Star - Winbanks

    Coaches Award - Garner

    Casey Trademark & Values Award - Hanks

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

      The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
