Hard to put a name to a few.

As tigerland12 points out, Delve most likely. Perhaps Tessman for the 5 Star award, as his been doing a lot for the Conversion for Clubs program.

Suspected Cadeyrn would be Rookie and Delve the People's Choice.

Chamberlain received the Spirit of Weary Dunlop award

Bit confused, he has hardly played this year. Considering it's about defending, perhaps Pyle/Jones/Neville?

Freier receives the 5 Star Engagement Award.

Delve is player of the year!

Press release with all the awards, retirements/departures:

I was at the event today. The bloke who presented the People's Choice Award was a bit of alright.

Haha that's wicked.

Congrats to delve. Well deserved.

I think they've been watching too much of the footy show

Where is James Hilgendorf going?

No idea at this stage. I'd suspect Japan.

Want to see some fat bloke struggle in front of an audience?
