If Nathan Jones wins the Melbourne Football Club B&F this year, will he be the youngest recipient ever?

If not who was the youngest and where on the list will he fall?

    No Terry Leahy won it in 1965 (0r 1966) in his first year. I think he was younger than Nathan Jones.

    Why didn't we sign him on a longer contract?

    It is still great news that he signed a new 2 year deal though.

    Terry Leahy won the Bluey in 1966 (his first year at the club). His date of birth was 12 October, 1946 which means he was a little short of 20 years of age when he won the award. And just for the information of Messrs. Carroll, McLean and Rivers he was dumped from the club at the age of 21 (according to Holmesby and Main's Encyclopaedia of AFL footballers) because of "his indiscretions on an end of season trip". Of course in those days they didn't go to the Greek Islands (mor likely Nar Nar Goon) and I'm sure our boys didn't start the fracas with those mean aggressive Swedes.

    Anyway, if the Jones boy gets up for the b & f this year, he definitely be the youngest winner because he doesn't turn 20 till January 08.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
