Stengleins position in the B&F guarantees a trade of more than a straight swap for Thompson (who is all potential after many injuries).
It always was guaranteed that we would get more than Thompson for Stenglein. B&F polling was irrelevant IMHO. On market value Stenglein was always going to be more attractive

Made the mistake of lumping the Johnson deal in with the Carey deal when they should have been separated.

Leys not make the same mistake and lump the Stenglein deal in with the Thompson deal - like folding on an open-ended flush ;)

"It was a good year (individually).

Well Done Roo!!!

Perhaps the Wet Toast fans will understand now how important stinger is to us. We've always known, this just highlights it for outsiders.

Thought I might note that Roo received the exact same amount of votes that he did in 2003.

Surprised that Stinger came runner-up, but there's no doubt that this will have a bit of an effect on the upcoming trade (if it has not already been completed).

Good to see Zoomer in the top 3, though most of us predicted he would finish runner up.

Macca would have received a lot of his votes due to the "jobs" Ayres and Craig set him, so not too many surprises there.

I thought Kenny would finish higher, but his tally was negated due to the injury he suffered in Round 19.

And on a final note, congratulations to Graham Johncock for finishing in the top 5 for the second consecutive time despite being only 21 years of age.

Adelaide captain Mark Ricciuto has won the Crows’ club champion award - the Malcolm Blight Medal - for a record third time.

It crowned another hugely successful individual season for the 2003 Brownlow medallist who was runner-up to West Coast's Chris Judd in the 2004 Brownlow Medal count and won All-Australian selection for the seventh time.

Ricciuto polled 159 votes - the same as he did last year - to win from Tyson Stenglein (146), Tyson Edwards (145), Andrew McLeod (144), Graham Johncock (119), Ken McGregor (115) and Matthew Clarke (100).

Ricciuto also was Adelaide's club champion in 1998 and 2003. He had been Adelaide’s third dual club champion, after McLeod (1997 and 2001) and Ben Hart (1999 and 2002).

Stenglein, who wants to play for West Coast next season, recorded his highest finish in the Blight Medal voting. He was fifth in 2001, equal third in 2002 and equal eighth in 2003.

Edwards' third placing again underlined his remarkable consistency. He was fourth in 2002, seventh in 2001 and second in 2002 and again in 2003.

Ricciuto, 29, received the Blight Medal and the traditional gold jacket from Adelaide chairman Bill Sanders at a black-tie dinner for 550 guests at AAMI Stadium’s Convention Centre on Friday night.

In his fourth season as the Crows’ skipper, Ricciuto also collected two other trophies – the Vice-Presidents' Club (coach's) award and the past players’ and officials’ award.

Votes for the Blight Medal were awarded individually by Adelaide's five coaches - Gary Ayres, Neil Craig, Peter Curran, Mark Mickan and Darren Jarman - on a 4-3-2-1 basis.

When Ayres left the club after round 13, the fifth lot of votes was the average of the other four in each of the remaining nine rounds.

There was no limit to the number of players who could receive votes in a match. Twenty votes (five fours) were the most a player could receive.
