Re: David Ellard (rookie)

Congratulations to David Ellard who won the Northern Bullants Best and Fairest on Friday night.

Add that to Carlton's best clubman award for 2009.



Ellard would be a great chance to play games next year if Hadley and Stevens move on.

Ellard might make a good full forward.

Ellard might make a good full forward.

Or in the Ruck if the Ants last home and away game is anything to go by

ELLARD REWARDED WITH LAURIE HILL TROPHY

Carlton Rookie-listed player David Ellard has capped off a stellar season by being rewarded the Northern Bullants Laurie Hill Trophy winner as the club's fairest and best player.

The award is great credit for the young on-baller who had earlier in the week received a Carlton Coach's Award from Brett Ratten and also was named the Northern Bullants Defensive Player of the Year award.

Despite not getting the opportunity to be promoted to the senior Carlton list through the season, Ellard beat a number of Carlton senior listed players to be named the winner of the Bullants most prestigious award.

Ellard finished with 96 votes to beat Bullants captain Adam Iacobucci on 74 votes with Richard Hadley finishing third with 61 votes despite only playing 9 games for the Bullants.

Re: 46. David Ellard (rookie)

I have to admit, Guns is right, poor Ellard has copped the rough end of the pineapple by the Match Committee ...

Still they might give him a gig this w/end against the Paddle Pops at Recycling Plant Park, I mean what is there to lose by playing him in a practise game, give the boy a game FFS MC ...

Re: 46. David Ellard (rookie)

Ellard turned 21 two days ago.

Shame on you guns for neglecting your fourth child.

Re: David Ellard (rookie)

Congratulations to Dave for being elevated to the senior list.

Not the most talented player you'll ever see but plays with more heart and determination than many other players going around.

Has done fantastically well in the Bullants and broke into the senior team, and managed to keep his spot for a little while at the back end of the season.

Was a certainty to be elevated despite some not wanting him to be.

I thought guns would be all over this thread now.

Well done Dave - you've done yourself proud with your efforts, and being elevated to the senior list is fantastic reward for effort. But now is not the time to rest, as the hard work has only just begun.

Re: David Ellard (rookie)

I still can't come to the party of Ellard becoming a member of our best 22 this year and down the track.

Great intensity and application, but everything else is vanilla.

If Ellard gets run down, he doesn't hold his feet and shrug the tackler off like Mclean.

 

[blue gunslinger]

Re: David Ellard (rookie)

I agree Gen he probably is not in our best 22 but on the cusp. A few injuries or a few attitude problems and Ellard could step in. Gives it his all!

Re: David Ellard (rookie)

Will miss round 1 vs Richmond through suspension.

A real shame as he has been performing very well this preseason.

I had him as a starter in the seniors for round 1.

Now he may well have to work his way back through the VFL.

 

[blue gunslinger]

Re: David Ellard (rookie)

great bloke
very frustrated with the suspension but is as determined as ever and will continue to work hard
respect for him went up even more when he said his most disliked player was Daisy

 

[BluesMan]

Re: David Ellard (rookie)

I think he is clearly in our best 22. clearly.

 

[blue gunslinger]

Re: David Ellard (rookie)

good return but need to work harder
well done buddy

Where did that kick come from?

 

[blue gunslinger]

got underneath it a bit.

 

[TNBT]

Any updates on how he is and whether he will miss game(s)?

 

[TheRedPill]

He posted on Twitter that he was feeling OK, with just a bit of a headache. He was also discharged from hospital after 4 hours so it can't be too bad. Fingers crossed.
