This award is a popularity contest IMO.  From memory Clarry was nowhere near it last year despite winning the AFLCA award.

Pleased that JVR is our best first year play.  But how does he get there if he hasn't played a senior game?

Not what it used to be.  This award had a lot of status back in the day, really now just a bit of a [censored] take.  Coaches award is the one to win now.

So there's a reason why it's called best first year player.

Disco is in his 2nd year.

It's just a nomination on behalf of the club. None of our first year players have played a game, so they just have to pick the best of the bunch I guess.

 Whacking an unsuspecting opponent in the guts is very courageous, I guess.

Alongside Zorko his “best captain”

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    2024 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
