2nds JJ Liston Trophy (Monday night) - Kyle Martin didn't win.

Kyle Martin, a favourite of so many on this board could add the JJ Liston Trophy (VFL Brownlow basically) to his list of achievements tonight.

IT was an oft-asked question among Collingwood supporters this year: why can’t Kyle Martin get a game?

His more vocal fans (some of them attached to his junior club, Noble Park) took to Twitter to express their frustration, pointing out his form in the VFL could not be better.

Martin pushed up for two AFL matches, but before and after he put together a fine season in the state league.

His reward could come at Monday night’s JJ Liston Trophy.

The midfielder will enter the count as one of the favourites after averaging 28 possessions across his 14 VFL games.

He also kicked 27 goals, including a haul of six against Essendon in Round 4.

Collingwood VFL coach Dale Tapping gives his right-footer an excellent chance of claiming the Liston.

“He’d have to be up there because his performances were at a high level,’’ Tapping said.

Apparently the VFL website is going to stream this tonight, it would be a nice end to our season if Kyle won tonight.

Broomhead would have won it easily had he played in the VFL instead of the AFL late this year

Just hope his few games he went up to the AFL does not cost him the Liston

Or, Broomhead would've won the Brownlow if he played AFL earlier in the year instead of VFL

Kennedy will come close I think

Well he does play for Collingwood

 

[jefffff34]

39 possessions, 6 tackles, 1 goal in a winning team gets you 0 votes apparently these days.

Espically when you play for Collingwod

 

[mattys123]

Martin still on 7, 5 off the lead after 12 rounds.

 

[jefffff34]

Up to 9.

 

[Unknown Identity]

Kyle Martin didn't even make team of the year.

 

[mattys123]

No VFL Magpies at all in the team of the century, just taking the piss now, Martin surely had to be in that.

 

[TradeDraft]

Kyle Martin didn't even make team of the year.

No Surprise. Was there any from AFL Teams in the VFL?

Nope

 

[TradeDraft]

Nope

Guess they are all Port Melbourne and Williamstown players then

 

[Shaneprice97]

Big Tom Campbell is polling well

 

[mattys123]

Big Tom Campbell is polling well

Doesn't play another VFL game.

Martin can't win, only played in 2-3 of the last 5 games.

 

[MagpieBat]

Doesn't play another VFL game.

Martin can't win, only played in 2-3 of the last 5 games.

Only 2.

The coach picked the kid at the right time of the year for the seniors then...

EDIT: Campbell's on 15 votes, not 16. Two 3 voters would get Kyle to 15.

If nobody else gets 16 or more, he actually could still win.

Hmm...
