SA Footy

Because of some stupid rules, i cant post this in the Crows Nest, so i thought i would give my opinion via this part.

The discussion about who will win the BnF for the Crows, and IMO the order will be:

1. Douglas
2. Thompson
3. Rutten
4. Reilly
5. Tippett
6. Johncock

Dont think Johncock will get much higher then 6 simply because he missed too many games and the best and fairest is about durability and consistency. If Johncock had played 19 games or so i think he would have won it as he has been outstanding this year! Thats my view anyway, and was pointless posting it in the Crows Nest as it was only going to get deleted.

Agree with the top 3 plus comments about Johncock which is a pity because his footy has been exceptional when he played.
IMO Reilly has gone backwards this season, can't put him in my top 6.

1. BOCK!!

I think Reilly (IIRC played all 22 games, one of only 5 or so to do so) has had a pretty good year being the number 1 tagger in the guts for the crows IMO

Personally I hope Douglas wins it. As I said on the Crows Nest, his turn around in form this year has been extraordinary - I would say the best I have seen from any Crow.

He was on his way out as another run of the mill small forward at the end of 2009, and has transformed himself this year to become a key midfielder for the club going into 2011.

I started the year as one of his many critics (I remember bagging the sh1t out of him about 10 mins into the R1 game!) and have ended it as of his biggest fans. He made me and many other people eat their words this year.

Same. I used to hate the way the bloke played but i love it now. Sure he still makes some stupid mistakes (which infuriated me before hand), but he wins the hard ball, wins clearances, is always running hard, can kick a goal, and is team orientated. Hopefully he wants to go home and ends up at the tigers (even though he is contracted)

I don't know...

I just don't like blokes with two first names.

Or two last either... bad luck Taylor Walker

Could someone please put this thread on the Protected Species Board?
