Fairest & Best Awards Night

5 October 2024

The Club held its annual Fairest & Best Awards function last night at the Duxton Hotel to celebrate and acknowledge the outstanding achievements of our players and dedicated club members throughout the season.

Fairest & Best Trophies:
Vote counts were held for League and Reserves grades, with the individual honours for Fairest & Best being awarded to Harrison Tyler (League) and Ben Mollett (Reserves). Both players demonstrated exceptional skill and dedication and were commended on their incredible efforts throughout the season.

In the League count, Harrison Tyler set a new club record with 221 votes, and polled votes on every single vote card throughout the 18 rounds. He was followed by Jake Atkinson, who's tally of 147 votes would have been enough to win the award in any other year. Finishing in third place was Kieran Guy, who has finished in the top 3 votes for five of the last six years.

In the Reserves count, the margin was much closer, with veteran Ben Mollett polling 66 votes to edge out ruckman Kyle Oates by just three votes. Young gun Pearse Bermingham finished the season with a string of best on ground performances to finish in third place on 49 votes.

Club Service Award:
The latter part of the evening saw the awarding of the Club Service Award to coach Kevin Liddelow. Kevin's dedication and commitment to the Club over the last year is very much appreciated.

Life Membership:
The evening culminated in the awarding of Life Membership to Sam Day and Tim Pendal. Both have spent a considerable time at the Club as players, but have also been instrumental in the contributions made by their off-field efforts.

Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate the achievements of our players and members. We now look forward to next season as we strive for greatness on and off the field!
