Yeah that I don't understand, I'd have had Lenny and Dempseter a clear cut above Joey this year.
Still, massive props to Lenny, how can you not love the bloke?

You're entitled to your opinion but if you think he's overrated then you haven't watched him play much over the years.
Hayes would still be better than any midfielder on North's list.
Is it? How?
We had plenty of improvement from our younger players this year with Geary, Armitage and Steven all finishing in the top 10 of our B&F and Dempster finished 3rd who has also improved enormously this year.

Amazes me really, Don't get me wrong an amazing comeback and played well but Sean Dempster was Saints best player all year.....Pitty he's a defender I guess.....and Montagna...Really!

Everybody loves Lenny. He's a dying breed of blue-collar, workhorse mids that I adore.
On 'ya, Lenny!

Great player, and I love watching him play, but I would have thought Dempster probably was St Kilda's best and most consistent player this season.
Would be interested to know what exactly about him that Quivorir doesn't rate? Incredibly gutsy player, brutal tackler, excellent role model for all young players, his skills are perfectly adequate... could go on and on. Theres just nothing to hate or dislike about him really.
Funnily enough Ziebell is very comparable to a young Lenny Hayes, whether he can ever get to Hayes' standard and consistancy over a 10 year period is debateable, but I'd be surprsied if you thought that he was overrated?

He had a really consistent year so it was not a huge surprise that he won: either he or Dempster would have been deserving winners. Nothing surprises me with Lenny anymore. First year back from a reco and he played as if he hadn't missed a game. Absolute champion.
Used to play with a bloke who had a similar heart valve issue to Lenny and after surgery he said he felt a difference with his fitness so I would love it if Lenny is able to find a little bit more next year and win back-to-back B & F's.

If Shaun Atley becomes half the player Lenny Hayes is you will be lucky.
No one can take this away from Lenny.
A deserved accolade for a great player, but gee what a harsh reminder for what could've been...
Great player, and fantastic effort by Lenny
Guess it also shows how reliant they still are on the more senior players. No good youngsters coming through at St Kilda, and they could very well repeat their streak of spoons from the 80's soon

Didn't note that Armitage, Geary and Steven all finished in the top 10?
Yes, more proof of the weakness of saints senior playing list
Yet your team apparently playing for their sacked coach couldn't beat our "no good youngsters".
