I'm positive Pagan's a flower...................does that count?

Other than that:-

Simmo arrival
Fev's Coleman
Walker's development
Betts' goal of the year (surley)
Kouta's last 5 games (proof that he can still be a decent player)
Bullants dominance
Murphy's first 11 games.

But the one who takes the cake for me is..............................

SETANTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Pagan's a flower!

The single biggest positive for me has been the emergence of Kade Simpson. He has had a fantastic year with very few down games (today I think was his quietest for the season). He has shown that he belongs in the AFL and will be part of our success down the line. Well done Kade!

Simmo for mine. He's developed very nicely thank you. Fev, and even to a lesser extent, Walker, shuold be doing what they're doing given their talent. But Kade has taken a while to emerge, and let's hope he continues to do so again in 20007 and beyond.

Kade Simpson really stepped up this year. Super year. Should be very proud of himself and deserves a nice contract extension.

Setanta really gained in a lot of areas. I think every supporter will have gained enormous confidence in accepting that Setanta WILL deliver the goods. An absolute credit to the big Irishman. Respect.

AW. Really wears his heart on his sleeve. 100% effort in everything thing he does. Respect.

The bullants. Very difficult job to continually change week in week out with different (available) personell who are either in form or out of form and at the same time try and develop teenagers for the next step up to AFL.
A very difficult balancing act to serve two masters (Northern Bullants FC & CFC).
I believe Mitch has done a fantastic job combining all facets of the job to only lose 2 games for the year so far and over the last few years has worked extensively to develop the likes of Simmo, Setanta, etc....
