Best tie on stage:

Volunteer winner!

Great guy, and his young daughter buzzing around is adorable too.

If you’ve been to a reserves game in recent decades (i.e. all the way back to 1966), you know this guy!

He’s not involved in the VFLW, but as a legend is still worth mentioning here – a good older article on him at:

LFG!!!

Ha, Radio 3DJR had them behind Plummer, McDonald, and MFord – and we lost this game!

The coaches agreed with the umps:

8 El Chaston (ESS)
6 Paige Price (BHH)
6 Stasia Stevenson (BHH)
5 Mikayla Lee (BHH)
2 Abbey McDonald (ESS)
2 Layla Prince (ESS)

And the leaderboard of the time remains promising for Chaston and Carbone and di Cosmo to catch up:

46 Emily Eaves (Williamstown)
36 Ange Gogos (Darebin Falcons)
34 Isla Baldwin (Box Hill Hawks)
32 Abbey McDonald (Essendon)
31 El Chaston (Essendon)
30 Dominique Carbone (Collingwood)
30 Imogen Evans (Sandringham)
30 Ava Seton (Port Melbourne)
29 Maddie Di Cosmo (North Melbourne-Werribee)
26 Lulu Beatty (Darebin Falcons)

Chaston might not get any votes in round 8 or 10, but rounds 9 and 11 (with McDonald out) are excellent chances, and rounds 12-14 produced 15 of 18 possible votes in the Radio 3DJR Award…

Gogos H&A season fantasy (misses round 14):

Chaston:

Carbone:

Dojiok (7 goals in round 8):

Eaves:

di Cosmo season fantasy:

Barba got 3 votes and di Cosmo none!

Faarrrrrrrk this game.

Gogos to 16

FARK MELBOURNE!!!

TIME TO GO! Can still win.

Radio 3DJR 5+6+4+5 to Chaston.

Unfortunately we still need to lose to Darebin…

Can’t win.

Game #50:

Ange deserves it. And is 36yo, legend.

Chaston finishes with back-to-back BOGs to get us to finals, and to second place in the B&F.

25 of a possible 39 is pretty good.

It’s not Nanscawen’s 33 of a possible 36 in 2022, though!
