So doesn't include finals then at Plympton?
Does that seem a bit odd to other sides? We included finals in '07.

nah we've never done that...

Para Hills has never included finals in its B & F count. Although I know the current coach would like that changed. Dont know why we dont do it just a tradition i suppose.

Count should be 18 home and away rounds only, finals is its own reward for all players for their hard work over a season.

Think this was discussed last year. I believe votes should be given in finals. It is when you want players to stand up and play their best footy and if they do should be rewarded with votes.

Go Demons!

This is the first time i've ever EVER heard of any club giving votes in finals.

Sounds rediculous to me.

maybe the should involve finals in the Brownlow count .

couldnt do that, the bottom 8 sides would never get a vote after the minor round!

our b@f winner from 2008 jumped over 3 players during the finals,coming from 4th at end of minor round to 1st at completion of grand final. now you make up your mind, we believe that while our teams are playing votes should be on offer. right or wrong that is our choice

voting in finals = dumb and unfair.

That's why you give awards for best players in finals series/grand final instead.

Pretty sure the Crows give votes in finals. Power could if they were there!

I've never heard of this happening ever before!

It just sounds completely stupid to me, thats why they have a 'most consistent in the finals' or 'player of the finals' or 'norm smith medal' !!!
