Our sponsors do a fantastic job and on behalf of the board and clubs I want to thank FortyWinks, Shepparton Printing Services and Sherrin for their continued support moreso this year inline with the MVP awards.
With the raging success of the FortyWinks Most Valuable Player award being decided by coaches on a week by week voting system now sees the Reserves SPS award and the u18s Sherrin award follow the same path.
The awards previously has been decided by the ever reliant timekeepers who have an unenviable task of ensuring all our games are managed within the rules and regulations set out within the AFL Laws. In order to lighten the workload on timekeepers for season 2016 these awards have been handed back to each to the coaching panels of the respective teams.
The Most Valuable Player (MVP) voting process is managed the same way as the AFL Coaches Player of the Year award. Both teams coaches are required to give votes (5,4,3,2,1) on who they believe are the best 5 players on the ground (not just from their own team) with the player who earns 10 votes been awarded Best on Ground honours from both coaches.
For those looking to a possible league medal winner at the end of the season, last year saw 7 of the top 10 FortyWinks MVP vote getters finish in the top 10 for the Morrison Medal.
The top 10 for each award is outlined below after Round 9
