All the best JL,one of my favs.

Has announced his retirement hasn't he?

Anyway, he always played his guts out for us after GC gave him the arse and gave us great service for the first few years of Fages' tenure

He got a bit unfairly criticised IMO for his lack of two way run.

Wish him all the best .

seperate to that team and don’t think it happened last year but it’s always seemed the Reserves B&F winner was a poison chalice of winners getting delisted shortly thereafter.

Pretty much - if you're good enough to win it, you're probably a mature and developed option. If you're playing in reserves enough to win it, you're one that's considered not good enough for seniors. The combo of the two doesn't bode well for your time on the list.

Werribee held off a fast-finishing Southport to win the VFL flag by 6 points after Buzza dropped a high pack mark that would have given the Sharks a late chance to tie the scores. Pretty ordinary game of football from what I saw of it.

Dunno if it was covered anywhere, but here's the top ten in the reserves' B&F. Love the juxtaposition with the exit sign.

Looks like the coaches rated James Madden's season, I wonder did he get a tap on the shoulder that he was going to be delisted or were we open to him staying but he just wanted to head back home to Ireland?

All I have seen published is that he was going back home.

5 of the top 10 prob not be here next year.
Pretty even spread 13 points between 1st to 10th

And the last is the place kicker for the Cincinnati Bengals - probably just played some reserves for us in his off-season.
