Re: Charles Sutton Medal 2019
Bevo lead up for Marcus rings Captain for me.
Interesting mentioning flying the flag for him may be too much in it but could reference a lack of it against Green.

Re: Charles Sutton Medal 2019
I watched the stream with headphones on and could hear people talking on stage as it cut to highlight packages etc. After Bevo’s speech I could hear him (I assume) say “f***ing hell, tough crowd!”.

Re: Charles Sutton Medal 2019
Top 10 finish for Lloyd, great effort.

Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

That in itself is astonishing. It gives you an indication of the level he's taken his game to over such a short time.
I'm stunned that Crozier only just sneaked into the top 10.

And from round 11, he played with a broken knuckle in his right hand. Had to be jabbed up before each game. Courageous lad.

Is there a 23 year old with more accolades in the game?
