Prediction John Worsfold Medal / Awards night Discussion

[UseR2006]

Didn't see a spot to discuss the Best and Fairest and the other awards. Since it's on tomorrow night (02/09 7pm AWST / 9pm AEST)

For mine I can only see 4 clear front runners for the B&F

• Oscar Allen
• Bailey Williams
• Tim Kelly
• Liam Duggan

Everyone else will round out the other spots.

The real competition though is going to be for the Emerging Talent. We actually have some serious competition in this space now.
Longy, Ginbey, Hewett, Maric.

Will also be interesting to hear from Simmo for the first time since he was re-confirmed by the board.

I'd give Emerging Talent to Long. A bit more under the radar than the others but just as impressive. Give the kid some well deserved accolades.

He's who i'm hoping grabs it. has had a fantastic first year.

 

[DanWCE]

Longy for best new player, I assume based solely on games played as that seems to weight heavily in our system.

Hunt to round out the top 5 somewhere (which is a great result)

I'd give it to Hewett personally but playing 5 more games will do it for Long.

 

[ROO DOGG]

100% Ginbey all the way, he was doing a lot of the heavy lifting on the inside for a first year player. Also playing on all the beasts of the competition. Huge first 3 quarters of the season until he got injured.

 

[UseR2006]

I'd give it to Hewett personally but playing 5 more games will do it for Long.

Ginbey only played 2 less games than Long so could give him a run too

 

[DanWCE]

I'd give it to Hewett personally

Yeah but what about our best first year player award?

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Yeah but what about our best first year player award?

Hewett will win them all.
Club champion, emerging player, best clubman, community service, best wafl player, leading goalkicker etc.

 

[Barrybran]

TK for the main award. Like the Hunt shout but I would expect him to finish no higher than fifth after TK, Oscar, BBW and Duggan.

Ginbey for the emerging talent. Long had a very good debut season and looks like a potential match winner but Ginbey had some big games in the first half of the year. Hough came home strong in the back half.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Top 10: Kelly, Allen, Williams, daylight, Duggan, Hunt, Hough, Witherden, Gaff, Ginbey, Darling

Some of those just in there because they played 20+ games (not mentioning any names)

Emerging Talent: Ginbey ahead of Long and Hewett

Best Clubman: NicNat

Beagles B&F: Josh Browne

Leading goalscorer: probably Allen, I reckon

 

[donpyke92]

Hewett already banked the BSD award.
The club broke tradition and gave it to him after his first goal, rather than end of season.
Understandably, WCE doesn't make this award public, but it's a real thing..kinda

 

[Keys]

Kelly
Allen
Duggan
Williams
Hunt

Ginbey best new player and will also be in top 10

Best clubman - Waterman

 

[donpyke92]

Kelly
Allen
Duggan
Williams
Hunt

Ginbey best new player and will also be in top 10

Best clubman - Waterman

That is very good.
Duggan/Williams only ? wrt how club does voting, unsure
Would be happy for Bailey to get rewarded for his work, often punching above his weight & playing sore. Been immense.
But won't be down on Duggo, he cops alot on here, hold him in high regard. Playing sore, Duggan same boat as BW
Both worthy IMHO

 

[Ishmael_]

Kelly
Allen
Duggan
Williams
Hunt

Ginbey best new player and will also be in top 10

Best clubman - Waterman

I think you've nailed it. The order right too.

Not sure on Best Clubman though. My guess is Tom Cole.

 

[UseR2006]

Couple of smokies I think might poll well enough to make the top 10...
Petch - Had a great year especially when moved through the middle.
Witherden - Played 20 games and has been pretty consistant down back in a back 6 that has been flogged all year.

 

[Sammy J]

Kelly for the Worsfold medal IMO

 

[KERRPOW]

I reckon Allen will get it as kelly missed a couple of games.

 

[Keys]

I reckon Allen will get it as kelly missed a couple of games.

Missed 1 - the St Kilda game in R16

 

[Bender_]

When is the event?

 

[squashface]

When is the event?

Tonight

 

[DanWCE]

Nic a smokey for best clubman?

 

[WCErevival]

Best clubman could have a lot of competition this year. Usually goes to an injured player.

 

[Wooshaaaa]

B and F. TK, allen

Clubman. Nicnat

First yr player...ginbey or long. Toss up

No other awards justified.
