POTY and BYB thread (Results only)

[ImperialPurple]

And the Top 3 speak for themselves - 3 players who have had outstanding debut seasons, all of whom have stayed in the team from debut; they have earnt their spots in the team, and then kept them through repeated good performances throughout the year - and have dominated this award.


In 3rd place, with 28 votes from 17 games:

Matty de Boer

 

[ImperialPurple]

And it's fitting that these two guys should tie for first place in this inaugural FFCBFBYB Award!

With 39 votes apiece, from 22 games played in the debut seasons, both recipients of a AFL Rising Star nomination during 2009 - in equal first place, they are, of course....

Stephen Hill and Nic Suban!!

Big Congratulations to these fine young players for taking out the inaugural (and most prestigious) FFCBFBYB Award for 2009!!

Comments welcome...

POTY following later on.

Hill is so good he can dominate the wee-girls with his eyes closed

Well done to the young blokes.

What the heck is Masten (Is that Masten?) doing to Mundy ?? It's putting a grin on his face..

I agree with IP in that it's very fitting that these two lads tie for the Freo' Board BYB of the year

Looks like that might be Mundy's first time..... seems like it might hurt

Top work IP. Very diligent keeping up with all this.
Great year from the top 3. Gives me a little bit of hope for next year.
Hill is a very special player who should just get better and better as he gets stronger.
Suban is an out and out gun who should get more consistent with experience.
DeBoer has been the surprise for me. He doesn't have the best skills in the world but boy does he go in hard. Together the 3 of them bring so much to the team not the least of which is spirit. The way they talk to each other and gee one another up on the field is inspirational.

How's the pic of Suban taking on the "Log" Lynch, classic.

Disagree in a sense. He has sensational skills, except for his kicking.

Well yeah, kicking is quite an important skill in footy. If he was an elite kick he would have gone top 10. But yes, he's a good overhead mark and his handball is fine.

Decision making still lacks though as well.

 

[ImperialPurple]

Sorry people, but CBF doing the pics and countdown. If anyone else wants to do it for the hell of it - go for it.

Two draws!!

Great stuff Impy - thanks for all the work over the course of the year...

 

[ImperialPurple]

No worries! But I'd be happy if someone else wants to put their hand up to do it next season.


But yeah, I think in both categories the stand out groups have been pretty obvious throughout the year -

Sandi / Taz
Hase / Duff

and

Hill / Suban
de Boer


I reckon we got it right peoples!
