SS how long will it take the Subiaco predators to get the cheque book out and try to lure another Demon your way? Had a crack at Dene White last year I believe. Unbelievable from a club spoiled with success over the last 10 years plus.

DD why would you sully the moment for a terrific effort by Tropiano with your rubbish comments, if you want to go down that path do it on another thread, don't disrespect your own champion. If you were to lose him it will be to the AFL.

I watched it on tv - laptop connected to tv with hdmi lead, too easy & no ads, perfect...

surprised EF Anthony came top ten, BOB and MacNamara had far better seasons than him from all reports......

....geez Menagola would be spewing, imagine how far he would of won by if he hadn't missed half the season.....did he poll in every game he played?

A bit unkind to throw a damper on the man's great effort to win for the bottom side.
IMHO there is no reason why a player from a team beaten by 50 points should not be judged 2nd BOG, nor even BOG. Also a bit unkind to the umpires as well. FYD!!!
Take 2 votes off him and he would not have won. So in YHO he didn't deserve to win,eh?

I agree smokey...I can't see any valid reason why a BOG can't come from a tem which has been flogged. The best player on the day is the best player on the day regardless of the result.
