Talking Footy SA Player of the Year

I understand that CK, of course. Was just a tounge in cheek comment

Get out of jail card hey. You know how to play the game don't you.

WA v ST

3 - Brad Fisher (super impressed by this guy and his great work rate)
2 - Brad Crouch (This kid is all class and will be a future star, for sure)
1 - Jade Sheedy (The veteran skipper was very good in a poor side)

Honourable mentions to West's Chris Schmidt (one of the best clearance players in the League), Scott Bricknell (love his run and carry from half back), Sturt's Levi Krause (youngster shows some promise) and the Double Blues Aiden Riley (love his attack on the footy and clearance work also)

3 Brad Fisher (WA)
2 C Schmidt (WA)
1 S Bricknell (WA)

Very tough this week. West would have had about 15 blokes who could've been in the votes.

It's interesting that the votes are spread over a huge number of players and only two players have polled over 10 votes so far.

We're surprised that Sturt have had so few votes.

In the few games where no votes have been cast, we have referred to the SANFL Official Results filled in by the clubs and made a judgement from that.
