Do we think club B&F's becoming like Brownlow etc.. Midfielders only??

nope Our CHB for Pulteney OS won with a midfielder r/up (midfielder did miss the last 5 games though with injury)

[dazed&confused]

ryan byrne won the paoc a grade bnf. nick martin second, tim nichols third (i think!) nick martin was very stiff to miss a spot in the team of the year imo, was consistently in our best players. james dalwood also stiff to miss, i dont think he got beaten in the ruck all year. having said that, there are 2 very good ruckmen in there

[Punk Rooster]

Lay Sok (CHB) won Fitzroy's B&F, from Chad Bourke (MF) & Matt Nelson (MF)

[Felch]

I think it was already mentioned, but Portland's B&F won by Dale Laslett, Nathan Godfrey was 2nd and Ross Bament 3rd. The latter 2 also stiff not to make it in team of the year, but up against quality midfielders though.

Dazed & Confused, what number was Nick Martin, and where did he play ? Surely Choimes should of been higher up in your b&f ? What was the story with changing your players numbers every week this year too ???

Dalwood is a good player, but i reckon our 2 ruckman stitched him up all 3 times this year. And he got stitched up by Hardy in the prelim big time.

[Super Coach]

Felch heard your in need of a forward pocket/assisant coach in th b's next year?
our new coach scares the old cheese burgars out of me, & Bucketts said back

Maybe 2010...

Martin is no12 half back flanker.
and felch i reckon your right about the finals for Dalwood, his centre square stuff was as good as usual but around the ground he was pretty ordinary, but he would be the first to admit that. But seeing as he has to have both his ankles cleaned out (at the ripe old age of 23) and has OP again, he could be let off.

your 2 young ruckman were in your best few imo in the finals though, would have to be very happy with young lads like that stepping up in a prick of a position.

I know the bloke now, he was ok against us. Half back flankers don't really stand out much though unless they are exceptional. You blokes obviously missed Ryan Byrne come finals time - you guys really fell down across CHF in the prelim, kept kicking it to Mitcham's Shaw. You needed someone to contest, and crash the pack - not let him drop in the hole, as he reads the ball well. That was one of the main things we focussed on in the GF - kick to Shaw's opponent and make him accountable. Also, if he wants to stand in the hole, make him earn it.

Felch uve hit the nail on the Head, i always thought just put one of the 2 big boys we had on our full back line at CHF just to be a target or decoy then work around that! all byrne does is give a target. and then it up to the lads to work off him. then when that was gone and some lads had to do it them self they couldnt. but lessons are learnt everytime you step onto a footy feild.

Caught a plane back from Melb. with a swag of Portland players Sunday evening, were fairly tame considering just won the flag
apart from one bloke talking like a mentally challenged person, I wonder if he knew that there was an actual mentally challenged fella in the aisle next to me. I'm probably lucky I didn't play this year, might of copped some shit if recognised
