Pretty handy CV for a 23 year old.

Jesus when I was 23 I was cleaning dishes for a living. On graveyard.

Bontempelli, Macrae and Dunkley all members of the "Bubble Of Excellence" kneel and bow in awe at

Back to his best, after 2016 there seemed to be a bit of a slight dip over 17 and 18 but good to see him at the top of his game again.

2 cats in top 4, 3 dogs in top 10.

Was hoping TK would hold on a month ago, but can’t argue with the Bont winning.

Well deserved, has been sensational this year, can only see him getting better!

This is probably the best individual POTY award. No one has a better view of the players and their impact on the game than the coaches. Still, the Brownlow holds the prestige, it'd be nice if he could win one.

 

[The 747]

All hail the Bont!

What the hell is wrong with the Bulldogs?

Their midfield is stacked with McCrae, Bont, Hunter, Dunkley and Libba. Do they just have glaring deficiencies everywhere else?

Not a close Dogs watcher but yeah would say you are on the money.

Well deserved

Hip issues and his appendix were reportedly his main issues over those years along with most players being down.

 

[Suma Magic]

Wow, head and shoulders above the chasing pack.

agreed, although very much like the Brownlow if you're not a midfielder you've got no chance, and I wouldn't necessarily agree the midfielders are always the most impactful or best players.

 

[Chinacats]

Very good year, but I’ll have Paddy!

 

[Faz 2000]

Wall to wall quality in that top 10 too. The Bont is awesome.

 

[Shane Heard]

Absolute superstar Australian Rules footballer.

Outstanding player.

Max Gawn won last year.

Max Gawn won last year.

would you not class a ruckman as a midfielder the same way you would class a full forward as a forward

 

[romeohwho]

Great player. Well deserved.

Has Scott complained yet about it not being Dangerfield?
