I picked parish before the season and I’m sticking with him

I like the idea that B&F’s aren’t just for best players, but players who did as asked.

I’ll go Laverde. He’s been outstanding in a role he had no right to be this good at.

When is it held?

Usually a week or 2 after the Season ends for us,… so about October 12th I’d say.

I think you’re as close as anyone’s likely to get. Merrett has been the most consistent although Parish has probably had the best couple of games. Jakey deserves to be right up there, as does Laverde, who’s an absolute shoo-in for Most Improved. I’d probably swap the positions of Heppell and Hind.

The good thing is that there are a lot of players who will poll votes and be unlucky to miss the top 10. We have many who are having their best years.

Darcy Parish 50
Jake Stringer 30
Jordan Ridley 26
Nick Hind 21
Mason Redman 16
Jayden Laverde 14
Sam Draper 14

It’s a pity we never see/know how many Votes all players get in the Crichton.

It’d be interesting predicting/seeing which player (or Top en etc) got the highest average Votes per game, …

I don’t.

Wouldn’t surprise to see Ridz or LAV higher in the order.

Often a radically different view & criteria assessed from inside than a footy forum.

You are totally forgetting the Crichton rewards matches played.

Stringer won’t top 3 because he missed too much.

Draper and McGrath are 0 chance of top 10.
