Good to see Trengove get some reward. Shows the club must rate him. If he can get back to his best it'll be like a new recruit for nothing.

Viney may end up with 3 awards tonight. Reckon he'll go top 5, maybe higher.

Daisy was always gonna win the women's award, but given there are only 2 games, prehaps they should go with a different viting system. Maybe best 6.

Astute top 5 prediction from Punchy

 

[Headless]

Would have liked to have seen a tie, there!

 

[PerfectFooty]

I had a feeling Viney would make a late charge. Might win it by a land slide next year if he stays fit
