2016 Player of the Year Leaderboard

[ZoBlitz]

So the Lions Bigfooty player of the year returns for another season after an extremely successful transition to the current poll-style voting system. Thanks to everyone who voted last year!

To recap: last year's winner was Stefan Martin who managed to run down a 21 point deceit with 7 rounds to go to eventually beat our runner-up Dayne Beams. In equal third place it was a tie between Mitch Robinson and Allen Christensen. Our rookie of the year was Harris Andrews who ended up finishing in the top ten.

With Beams battling injuries, can Stef go back to back? Can Robbo and Christensen improve on their stellar debut Lions seasons? Will Rocky trump them all? Is Schache a lock for rookie of the year or are Keays and Mathieson just waiting in the wings for their opportunity?
