[Gav...]

The A-league awards lunch is on today...

The First Award is the Rising Star which was awarded to Bruce Djite (Adelaide United)

more award winners will be annouced as known....

 

[skilbeck]

congratulations to Bruce, better than Holland getting it

 

[Alicia]

Joel Griffiths won golden boot, no surprise there.

Ref of the year.....Mark Shield.  He wasn't there so Ben Buckley took it for him.  Person on 442 website aptly stated "This isn't the only thing he's missed this week..."

Goalie of the year goes to Melbourne Victory's keeper Michael Theoklitos

 

[skilbeck]

Mark Shield is that a joke? but then again in Australia the whole award of ref of the year is a joke. IMO they shouldnt have awarded it this year

Dont agree with Theoklitos getting goalie, but compared to the other choices the FFA wouldve been mulling over I hate him the least so congrats to him

 

[Alicia]

Santalab goal of the year.

 

[Alicia]

Everyone's going to get a kick out of this one.

Fair play award - jets. Durante collects.

"we pride ourselves on fair play..,, "

 

[skilbeck]

Doesnt surprise me but it couldve easily gone to griffiths, Zullo, A Elrich, Hutchinson or quite a few others IMO

EDIT - the goal i mean

vukovic of course wasnt allowed to win it because of recieving a red card this year

 

[skilbeck]

id disagree Tommy, but hey they wont gonna give it to Danny after sundays incident and id rather Theoklitos got it over Covic or Bolton

 

[Deej]

We Have the Best Keeper In The Land!!!

why didn't you win anything then? or have the best defensive record?

 

[rosko]

We did have the best defensive record until 20mins into the Sydney game... doh  Then 10 in two games slipped into the net!

 

[Gopher of Pern]

And who do we have to thank for that????

...grumble...Breeze....grumble....

No one loves us but we don't care! 

Shield getting Ref of the Year for the 3rd year running just shows just how very poor the field is. 

 

[skilbeck]

what about this award: looks like Breeze has won it with dishonarable mentions to Griffiths, Harper and Holland

I wonder how Shields would fit in there if the poll was to reoccur and another person not on that list would be Con

An odd insult, but it looks like someone went to town on him on wikipedia
