As Frase's tip for the medal, Ugly, good to see you at least poll in 1 game (Round 2 vs OG - 3 votes)!!

You kicked 4 that day...not in BT's best. The F#*king umpires screw you over don't they? What about the 4 bags of 5 goals? and the haul of 6?

Did your old mate Anthony Damen do the round 2 game? or was it Lionel?

 

[Corey Enright]

I'm gonna go NOBS in an upset on Saturday and OMs to get payback for the last qtr fade out last time round.

I like Florance for the B&F too. Bevan 2nd and Rombotis to snag 3rd with a heap of votes from rounds 10 to 18.

Followed up tipping the GF winner and margin with one of the B&F winners - good form. Although tipping the BT-Florance double was about as ballsy as tipping the Geelong-Ablett double.

 

[Half Back Pocket]

BT just over Nobs.
OM's just over Oggers.

After the unfortunate injury to Greenham in the state game, Florance is clearly the best player in the grade (apologies to Cochy and Branigan) and will win the B&F (Pietryk will do well also).

I tipped it too Corey! (Bonus point for tipping BT just over Nobs)

In my opinion Dave Matthews would have been a more worthy recipient of Coach of the Year this year. Rest of team looks good though.

 

[uglydermie]

I think we all know that it is a typo. Dave Matthews is the coach of the year.

Unfortunately, I fear the penny never quite dropped with Willo that B-T weren't actually coached by uglydermie. I noticed he referred to Dave as Dean in his column a couple of times during the year as well.

I may be wrong, but it'd be a typo which recurred twice over.

 

[uglydermie]

i was very stiff in 2001 - led the Ants to 1 win and 17 losses...... Great win over the Jackas by 1 point!! Did we celebrate!

I still think his best effort was believing some of the crap that's written on here and naming an OM's reserves fringe player as our senior team's big recruit for the year - not a lot of research went into that one on his part...
