The time has come, this is the big one, even bigger than the Brownlow (well, perhaps I'm getting carried away). You guys know the drill, please give your 3-2-1 for who you think were the best posters over the last season. I think I need to set some ground rules, you can't on-trade your votes (sorry deanox) and voting will finish on Sunday at 17:00 (extra day because I was late)

Good luck everyone!

    Damnit, when's the best mod vote?! :P

    I wasn't too sure if I should or not but we can run with two awards this week, and as Jaded suggested I'll create another thread. (Edited)

    Anyway, my top 3 posters:

    3- Maurie Lithen. Not the most regular but you very rarely see a post that isn't quality.

    2- Rhino Richards. Is often the lone voice of reason amongst an awful lot of noise.

    1- Fan. Has been easily my favourite poster for as long as I can remember on both 'land and 'ology. I wish he posted more, if he did he'd be a shoo-in for my 3.

    Jarka, if you want to do the best mod awards this week too, you should put it in a separate thread with a poll, since there are a lot of mods who go unnoticed. If you set it up in a poll, it means that everyone gets an equal chance to get a vote.

    I think it'd be a bit wanky if one of the "inactive" mods won personally!

    The point is, that not everyone knows the full list of moderators so they can't make a fully informed selection.

    It was just a suggestion.

    Good idea, I'll edit my previous post

    3. Hannabal / Trav 20 Love his work, he's pretty much the reason I kept coming to this site.

    2. Fan - I'm a fan of Fan. 100% sense.

    1. Scoop Junior - Talks a fair bit of sense too.

    Honorable mention to WJ. These guys all make coming here worthwhile, thanks fellas. *thumbs up*

    This is why such an award is flawed, sorry Jarka.

    3 - Champ - right post at the right time. The one above swayed my thinking.

    2 - Beach Road Barry - Certainly how I find out about Melbourne's youngsters

    1 - WJ/Scoop Junior - Always insightful

    Thanks Geddy, I'm humbled.

    And have had rip rawing arguments with them all. :D

    Because more often than not people will just vote for who they agree with. Not who is the "best".

    lets see if anyone agrees with you ...

    Fan, Hannabal, Scoop of course ... got to fit Axis and Grazman in there. I rate Queen C too.

    I didn't vote for them because they're the posters I agree with. I voted for them because I believe they're the most persuasive. The people I would vote for in something like this are the people who can convince of an argument either way.

    You might notice that I'm not a poster who gets right in to the nitty-gritty of an argument often. That's because 9 times in 10 when I open a thread, it's on a topic I haven't formed a solid opinion on yet.

    My favourite threads are the ones where the likes of H and Fan come head to head. My very favourite threads are the ones where I change my opinion on the matter at hand after reading each individual post. These guys do that for me. Regularly. (btw I could easily have included H in my votes as he is by far and away the best debater on this forum and he sucks me right in, but at times I find his over-aggression distasteful)

    Rhino gets my vote because he uses his brain when everyone else is hysterical, particularly in a bad season. I don't always agree with what he says, and have come to a head with him a few times, but I appreciate the fact that he doesn't go off half cocked.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
