Good players were Warren, Featherstone, Clarke , who did a great job not only in the ruck but marking all over the ground and Folan for Labrador,,, and for PBC, I thought Higgs was outstanding on a forward flank, kept PBC in the game, Pearson was good as was Derrick.
Rumour is that Cressa has a reasonable salary cap to work with at Wodonga. Who may be in line for the PBC job?? Anyone have any ideas?
Wasnt aware of that SMY and not sure our club was either but if that is correct will accept that. Having played Maroochydore this year and knowing who was on their list yep agree many were bottom age but 16 or so of their best 22 have played rep footy in the last 2 years. We had 3. 3 of their boys are in the State squad. Big difference there. And yes Aspley very fortunate, a senior team in the Omeo league in Victoria a couple of weeks ago got booted from the GF for playing an ineligble player in the finals, Aspley only fined!! Wonder if that would have applied had it have been a lower profile club? Would hate to think so.
that was because the player in question didn't play enough games for the team. they put him on the team sheet but he didn't play because he was in bali on holidays. with this case the league and brisbane juniors were partly to blame as they entered the wrong birth date into the system. the player was also suspended for 6 games
WELL WHOEVER IT WAS , HE WENT OK, WAS WEARING NUMBER 11, AND THE TEAM LIST IN THE PROGRAME NAMED NUMBER 11 AS fOLAN.Folan didn't play.
Labradors Davey romps the Grogan Medal in by 8 votes. Is his 2nd win in 3 seasons and did it this year in only 14 games played,,,,,,,,, great effort.
Davey to win by a clear margin, the comps best performer by quite a bit.
If I was a betting man, I would also be on Davey.
Wonder if there really is a market for this stuff?
I'd like to put a bet on Davey for 2015 now!
Was it just me, or did anyone feel like it was the QWAFL awards last night, with a Grogan Medal Count thrown in afterwards as an afterthought?
congrats to all winners, well done to Lake winning coach of the year interesting to see he didnt poll a vote off the his fellow coaches in a recent survey... well done to Clint Watts,David lillico and Marty King for their induction into the hall of fame.Labradors Davey romps the Grogan Medal in by 8 votes.

Big surprise was Morningsides Kinch..... only got 11 votes,,,, now that bewilders me,!
Umps got no idea. Uni getting pumped by 100 or more and their players polling 1 and 2 votes. No leader board update very strange.Bloody shocked here. Kinch was outstanding

The word was that WG may have known of the situation prior to the game and decided not to say anything. It was alleged that they thought the game was unloseable to be won either on the park or afterwards on appeal. If he was really a game breaker, perhaps they should have brought the issue to the attention of everyone pre game??? The player knew he was overage but thought (as with many rep teams) that an overage player concession was in place. His date of birth was shown as 11 (nov) instead of 1 (jan) on the system due to error since 2008 so not picked up by officials.fair enough Damo - sounds like fault at both ends but saying this most blokes know their own birth date and whether they are eligible or not. In fact most if not all officials would ask the question of any boy who is around that over age mark. Its not hard. Anyway no harm done in the end but you can understand why Grange were ropeable after being defeated in the semi by Aspley.
Here we go again...
There u go,,,, Davey romps in, got 3 votes in 6 games and polled in the other 5 games to be a runaway winner. Runner up , Derrick from PBC, YES A GOOD PLAYER, that's played at NEAFL level whilst at Broadbeach. just cant believe that Morningsides Kinch only got 11 votes, and Trewhella buggar all votes .And Neate from the Vultures .Ruffles,
Kinch has been outstanding , over and above his team-mates. Feel he will go close to winning the Grogan.... agree Trewhella will be up there,, and Labradors Davey, who missed so many games with injury,,,must still be up there,,, reckon he will poll 3 votes at least 7 or 8 times, which may get him over the line.Daveys situation is similar to Gary Ablett jnr whom I feel is still a chance to take the Brownlow regardless of missing the last 8 games..... feel he should poll plenty of 3 votes as well.
Bloody hell the kid has played with nearly a 12mth advantage for 6 years!! No wonder he had a beard, he was a mature age footballer..The word was that WG may have known of the situation prior to the game and decided not to say anything.

In response to the womens aussie rules comp in qld, yes I thought it was overdone at the big night. But in saying this, one has to look at the aussie rules comps down south where all clubs are called for example. the Albury tigers football and netball club. That's because all clubs , be it major or minor league comps have women participating in netball on game day. This usually has a grade, b grade, c grade an d under 16s netball teams competing..
Now this means some 50 plus women are playing for their club each weekend, against some 50 plus women , be it the opposition club. add to that the coaches, volunteers , and families and friends attending to support this arena, all of a sudden you've got another 150 to 200 people at both home and away games..They all spend the dollars on game day thru the kiosk, bar , raffles etc, thus play a very important part to a footy clubs finances.
In QLD, this would be a godsend for local clubs, but there are no netball courts at the footy grounds and to build a court will cost some 100k .
Thus I see that Conlan and the heirachy have recognized this , and are placing huge emphasis on the development of womens aussie rules footy with the goal of putting more financial gains for the clubs, because there is no way netball courts will be constructed at all footy clubs home grounds.
Here we go again...
Calm down.
Nothing wrong with combining them, but I was there on the night and the Grogan played second fiddle. There is combining, and there is hijacking.
I might be an old dinosaur, but the Grogan should be the 100% main event.
