Well done

Unbelievable how good a player he has become. He just has fantastic poise in congested situations.

To think so many saw it a stretch to select him at pick 5 in 2005 when most had him as a mid teens pick.

Take a bow Mr.Hine.

This certainly wont be his last.

Loved his speech especially the mention of years to come, not just year.

Very well deserved played the whole season from go to whoa better than anybody else at the club,cannot remember to many quiet games from him.

Top 2 or 3 in the comp no doubt at all,he and Sellwood the younghest also,he looked a player right from the start great in traffic and great decision maker.

Blair was top 10. Perhaps were raising his stock in case he's heading to gws?

 

[Optimax]

Fantastic

Really well deserved

I heard him speak last night and probably for the first time actually believed this guy is the future captain of Collingwood. Has grown so much in his time here.

Blair was top 10. Perhaps were raising his stock in case he's heading to gws?

or perhaps we're not across what criteria the club set up internally in order to gain votes in the b&f. Blair's energy is always first class, and he was top five at the club for tackles, handballs and goals. not bad for a permanent forward.
He cops too much on here. He's a midfielder being played out of position and he's not robinson Crusoe for struggling as a pocket player on GF day.
I think it shows the club are really happy with him, his start to the year in particular was awesome.
On topic though Pendles is a genius. Does something every week that no other footballer could do.

What an amazing player and only 23 wow. His not gonna lose much with age, only get better i can see this guy having 9 more amazing season god thank jesus his with us.

 

[Copeland]

Congratz Pendles, the big question is what will he do with me, spose he could give me to his missus

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

He's clearly the best player in the afl yet still amazingly quite underrated...in a weird way.

 

[noideaatall]

Brownlow too next year

clearly pies best in 2011, whatever the criteria. umpires may just need to give him a brownlow in 2012 to square things up. I tip daisy for copeland 2012, brownlow 2013
