It is next Monday night.  Will be telecast live on website and app.

The club/AFL scribe has listed a number of players in contention the-best-and-fairest-contenders

  • Gawn
  • Brayshaw
  • Fritsch
  • Frost
  • Harmes
  • Hunt
  • Oliver
  • Petracca
  • Salem
  • Viney.

As votes are given per game, those that played the most games have the best chance of polling well which may explain some surprise names in the list and some notable omissions.

My tips for top 3:

  • Gawn by a country mile
  • Oliver
  • Petracca

Could easily have picked Viney or Salem for 3rd.

    Harmes won't win it as of course Gawny is hot as and Oliver is his bridesmaid ha ha. However i can honestly say that the last couple of years  Harmes has been the most  ultra consistent  and a  valuable player and deserves to finish in the top 3 best players.

    He is a dark horse  but  Gawny has been extraordinary.

    It says a lot about our year when one of the nominated players in contention for the b&f was dropped at the end of the season despite a massive injury list.

    Said player also did his best work in the forward line, got moved to the backline and got dropped 2 games later.

    i’m over 2019 let Toby Green scratch the eyes out of Richmond. Mumford to go out swinging, not worried about drug testing in his last game and bring on 2020.

    I thought it was quite a poor group of players overall but they are the few that played nearly every game.

    Its a bit of an indictment on the voting system that rewards number of games played.  No game, no votes.  So some of our better players aren't 'eligible'.

    If anyone is going the occasional update would be handy, or a bit of gos would be welcome!

    News of new club base location/progress.?

    Jaguar signing up for next year(s).?

    Outcomes from the presentation to the AFL Commission a few weeks ago.

    News of replacements for T. Viney, Jennings, Rawlings etc.  We wouldn't want to fall behind other clubs looking for similar staff.

    A friend of a friend (so don’t shoot me) says the count will be close, as close as you can get! Original source was a journalist so who can you trust
    for me it is Gawn and Oliver.

    The Chief, 99 and the 2 junior agents are all attending tonight’s B&F.  Last year was a great celebration, on reflection maybe a bit too much self congratulation. Expect that attending tonight’s will be a bit like shooting myself in the shoephone.

    President spoke well after the niceties 

    A touch of ruthlessness was behind it. It must be adhered 

    It is a brutal competition and we have to start punching when threatened...

    Nice work 'Lenny" or should I say "Barry"  

    You are still by far the 'hardest man' on here.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
