| Blair Wardlaw |
Senior coach Matthew Smith was full of praise for Wardlaw, describing him as a talented hard worker. "Blair has put in a big pre-season and trained every night this season and his efforts have paid off," Smith said during the presentations at the clubrooms last Sunday.
In the Reserves division, backman Corey Ransley with 63 votes took out the Roydon Howard Medal by four votes from Tom Bligh. Returning to football after three seasons off, Ransley played a pivotal roll down back for the Eagles in a consistent effort all season.

There was a large attendance for the medal counts and it wasn't just the players, with of the club's faithful supporters present. IT was a day of very close calls, With all three divisions closely contested from start to finish, the winners were not known until the final votes were called.
With the signatures of coach Matthew Smith and some former players already on the dotted line, season 2017 is shaping to be good one.
