    More than anything I am interested in what Dean Bailey says

    And perhaps any hints as to whether Robbo is being traded, or anyone else for that matter

    According to Fox Sports News, James McDonald won the B & F on 260, ahead of Nathan Jones (190) and Matthew Bate (176). I find it staggering that McDonald won by such a large margin. I thought Jones is stiff to miss out on winning it actually. Petterd won best first year player, Newton most improved.

    LOL what?

    How can it be over at 8:15?

    Interesting but not surprising, good to see Jones and Bate in the top 3.

    its not true

    There is no way the count can be over this early

    I know. I was quite surprised to see it too. Go to Fox Sports Active if you've got Foxtel. Lynden Dunn won the Best Clubman award and Brad Green the Best Team Player.

    Staggering.

    Probably no one turned up except the players, and the just handed out the trophies...

    That would top off a brilliant day, wouldn't it.

    Bater was great

    White just went

    Jones = best player in 2007

    How can Junior be so far ahead of Jones?

    And Bater 3rd?

    I guess the voting would have been all over the place, with Neale leaving half way through the season and all.

    Well done to Junior though. 2 times B&F winner!

    I think you'll find that I actually picked Bate for a top 5 finish a while back. I thought he had a terrific 10 weeks (beginning with the first Port Adelaide game) and there weren't too many others worthy of getting votes.

    If Matthew Bate has come 3rd then it's just about the biggest joke of the year

    Strange these results came out before the event had even concluded.

    My most recent update from my mate there was Petterd best first year player and Bruce leading after round 10. I received that after seeing all the results on here.

    thats not all true (because everyone else hardly played 15 games) mcdonald, jones and bate played most of the games.

    I think we should wait for something official, like an article to appear on the website saying "because our facilities are not good enough, we decided to scrap the B&F, but we are honoured that 44 players wanted to play for our club in 2007" :rolleyes:;)

    LOL now the facilities at my house are sufficient (I believe) and I have just checked and under the Fox Sports news there is breaking news with all the results that are mentioned on this site. Also Brad Green came 4th with 170

    Good on you Junior.

    Couldn't think of a more deserving winner (except for maybe Jones!) and a more perfect replacement for Neitz, if need be.

    Couldn't disagree more. McDonald was better than Chunk this year, a lot better. Not saying Jones was bad definitely top 2 or 3 but Junior would be the most deserving winner.

    These smack of bogus results - I'd expect Doggy to poll highly.

    msg from the event. Jmac from Jones, Bate, Green and Davey.

    Bate and Davey polled a little better then i expected. I would have thought White and Brown may have been in the top 5.

    Well done Junior! He is the first player since Stynes to win consecutive best and fairests. Always thought it would be a McDonald/Jones quinella, but a little surprised to see Davey so high.

    Bate deserved 3rd spot

    Look at some of his games this year

    Round 4 - 19 disposals, 6 marks, 1 goal

    Round 6 - 24 disposals, 10 marks, 2 goals

    Round 7 - 19 disposals, 5 marks,1 goal

    Round 10 - 16 disposals, 7 marks, 2 goals

    Round 11 - 18 disposals, 10 marks, 2 goals

    Round 12 - 20 disposals, 7 marks, 1 goals

    Round 13 - 17 disposals, 3 marks, 1 goal

    Round 14 - 19 disposals, 7 marks, 3 goals

    Round 15 - 21 disposals, 5 marks

    Round 17 - 12 dosposals, 6 marks, 2 goals

    Round 22 - 18 disposals, 7 marks, 2 goals

    Now before you say stats arent everything, this bloke isnt playing as loose man across half back a la Joel Bowden.

    He was a 19 year old kid thrown into the cauldron and asked to play as roaming CHF.

    You hear the media crap on about Travis Cloke, but the fact is Matthew Bate has him and most other kids his age covered.

    Congrats to Junior. I am a little surprised that Jones didnt win it, but McDonald had a solid year. A testament to his character to win 2 in a row.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
