If that's the most courageous thing that happened of the football field this year then I give up.

Smother was good, but the Freo dude had already kicked the ball when he tackled him, so he should've got a free down ground :lol:
The joy of being on the hill drinking beer cannot be understated

Would have been better if his tackle resulted in an immediate turnover.

You don't see many smothers these days due to players being told not to over-commit, maybe that is the best they've got. Sad.

I reckon all of the Powder Puffs who ran out in that truly gay away uniform of theirs deserve this award.

Army Award - it should have gone to the Melbourne Football Club for all their 'tanking'.

Is there anything left in footy you DON'T win an award for? Another meaningless trophy to deflect attention from the fact AFL football is boring.
