Great to see the boys being recognised for their effort this year.
I think (Captain of the year, Centre of the year) are quite likely and potentially the Provan-Summons.
Then Cirro would be the favourite for coach of the year but if Bellamy won it, i don't think you could argue.
Then i think Kiraz is a genuine shot at Winger of the year and then Burto an outside shot at 5/8.

Awesome work from the club.

 

[vegny]

I think 2 certainties from crichton. Capt and ctr of the year.
Big possibility getting 3rd one from cc getting coach of the year.
A chance of getting 5. With kiraz and kiks

Bellamy has done a great job but if you look at what Ciraldo has done to get a team with one recognized prop to almost finish top four, you'd say his achievement just beats Bellamys.

Bellamy has done a great job but if you look at what Ciraldo has done to get a team with one recognized prop to almost finish top four, you'd say his achievement just beats Bellamys.

Bellamy has had the same basic team and more importantly the same spine for the last 5 years, that's around 100 games of playing together. More to the point 5 pre seasons and 100 games to coach them to the level that they are at now.

Ciraldo has had what 2 seasons with less than half the team, the spine together less than 1 season. That's a far superior coaching result in a far shorter time frame.

It's nice just having players and the coach nominated. The last few years that would've been exciting if we'd had anyone that felt ripped off by not being anywhere on that list.

Hopefully we get a few awards when the decisions are made.

 

[Rebuilding Phase]

Super proud to even have them nominated after so many years of no acknowledgement!! Big congrats to Ciro, he definitely has a chance, for him to be up there with the 2 greatest coaches is a huge achievement!!!

They forgot Jaemon ..

 

[Bulldog_4_Life]

Centre of the Year and Coach of the Year are certainties. Potentially Captain of the Year for Critta too.

 

[KLil]

Centre of the Year and Coach of the Year are certainties. Potentially Captain of the Year for Critta too.

If it wasnt for Lomax and Angus you could argue Kiks and Kiraz are also certainties.

I dont know `how a dummy spitting center who had to play wing beats Kiraz tbh..

Angus for what he produced in SOO which is not really fair.

 

[spscand]

I dont want ciraldo to win coach of the year. Nor do I want Critta to win anything. These awards are cursed for us. 2012 into 2013 was a nightmare post all those awards.

As much they all deserve to win. No thanks, don't no superstitious jinxing round here lol

 

[silva]

So does this mean burton is a five eighth?

Dont they pick 2 for wing and second row positions?
Angus will get one. Kiks is battling katoa for the second one.

 

[Dingo]

Ciraldo may get coach of the year but I have the feeling the last 3 games will cost him.

 

[silva]

Edwards
Too
Crighton
Farnworth
Lomax
Deardon
Hughes
Fisher Harris
Grant
Leota
Kikau
Crighton (c)
Yeo

Coach: Ciraldo

Yes, yes they do... On z ball ayyyy!

 

[Bob dog]

Ciraldo will shit in in, what he did with a few more young guns compared to last year.
Kiraz and Kickau are still a hope.

 

[Brendan7]

Ciraldo may get coach of the year but I have the feeling the last 3 games will cost him.

if they give it to Bellamy that’s fair enough

 

[ILiveForDib]

Even as a dogs fan lock in Bellamy if he wins the comp. Will probably go to whoever wins the GF, way we rounded up the season cost CC not to discredit him though he defied all the odds. Was the hardest job in the comp, almost suicide but his shown his a really smart man.
