Those votes that are up on vafa website, are submitted by each team. either there team manager or coach, so whilst turner may get some browny points with the people sitting on his bench he clearly didnt take the cake with the umpires. its an award given by the umpires not each sides bench.
And Muf, this weeks games should be a thriller, although scammel is a shorter ground.. the wide open space and the deep pockets/flanks will catch xavs out. Sharks for me.
Obviously it's done by the umpires. He was a standout player, and if he doesn't poll top 3 it's a joke even with Fitzroy only winning a handful of games. Also if Beaumaris make the grand final that's a massive joke, there not even in the top 5 teams i've seen this year. Xav's will smash them
