              Does not matter what the umpires think.


              The AFL player community has spoken

              Bonts its a champion

              I just hope things go our way, all the footy gods align and we win a GF this year.

                  I bet Marcus would take Premiership Captain over the umpire's pet award AKA the Brownlow any day of the week.

                    Pretty happy with how the night has gone.

                    The AFLCA is a bit of a tricky one because you want your guy to win it because the coaches really know what's valued, but they also have their biases and each game is different. Same with the players to an extent.

                    But to snag one of those and the best captain and AA captain's nod says you've had a fantastic year. The Big Clubs are Better cabal tried their darndest to get Cripps the nod because they're a bunch of Crippophants and big club mollycoddlers, but Bont kicked twice the goals he did and only had a few less touches a game whilst being the highest rated player out there.

                    Cripps is a fantastic player mind, and it wouldn't have been a black eye for Bont to be his vice.

                    Great night for the club especially given Adam made the final 22 as well, and lovely to hear he's given Charlie the responsibility (and Kim has) of looking after his little one whilst quipping Bevo might not have recommended it!
                    TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                          The man is a marvel.

                          He’s the absolute best of the best and a in a world that is a bit upside down values wise and torn over what an idol, a real man is, I reckon we have the standard right here in our club.

                          Unwavering. Well mannered. Exceptionally fair. Tough. Skilful.

                            Such a deserving winner is our skipper, and congrats to Adz too. And a well done to Bailey Dale, making the squad is a great achievement, given the standard of the players selected.

                              I mean I don't know what more can be said about our Bont. We need to just appreciate what we have. An amazing talent and person.
